Kirk Ferentz getting sued for being racist

[CyCrazy]

The local CR media could actually report what is happening. Instead, they just continue with Iowa PR by spending most of their time on BTN All Decade Team. Also had this groundbreaking story, "Iowa coaches taking salary cuts". OMG! That is big boy journalism! Every school in the country is doing that, but CR media makes it sound like Barta is a savior.

I still cant understand why the media is scared of Iowa. Its pathetic.

Who is the local media supposed to ask the tough questions to right now? With the investigation going Barta and the Ferentz's aren't talking. If you are suggesting that the local media sucks, I agree.

Can we stop calling this thing thats going down an investigation.

This is wrong.

What black athlete came out and said they wasn't racial discrimination within the program?

I am getting caught up in semantics, all the black athletes have said there is a problem. Because they haven't literally said Kirk let racial discrimination inside the program doesn't excuse the issue.

Sorry RedDog, what would you like me to call it?

Of course you are. You are a waste of space.

I believe the University of Iowa Athletic Department labeled it as an examination or something of that nature.

Well obviously if they are coming out saying there is racial discrimination inside the program they're referring to Kirk allowing or promoting it since it is his program

Soon it will be a spring cleaning. Just sweep a little further under the rugs.

Once they announced what attorney was leading it I think even Iowa fans will admit it's a joke

Happy Independence Day to you too CyCrazy!

Twins this why you are such a good troll, I am sure that KF was "promoting" racial discrimination.

 

[kcbob79clone]

How many need to come out before KF and BF are gone?? 100 players? Obviously 50 or 60 isn't enough.

Answer is ALL of current and former players, unless there are grammatical errors.

He promoted his racist son to OC. I think it's fair to say. Best case scenario for you is he just didn't care and let it happen which is awful

There is no best case scenario in this, we can probably agree on that..

Happy Independence Day to you too CyCrazy!

Pound sand you *******.

To wrap up several hundered thousand clicks:

1. Kirk hired Doyle to be the heavy. Doyle was WAY ofer the top and not only crossed the line of human decency he jumped over it on a regular basis. Too many times to count.

2. Doyle did get results so Kirk allowed the mistreatment of human beings. There appears to a despearancy of mistreatment of black players. Because of the results Kirk knowingly never held Doyle accountable for his methods.

3. Doyle becomes untouchable over the years, young coaches now want to emulate Doyle. Enter BF. Brian now want to be like Doyle and tensions rise. Brian has a couple public episodes. Kirk is required to respond because the cameras were on and public got a glimps of the iowa way.

4. Former players complain, more come out on Doyle, Brian and Kirk, Kirk asks Doyle to step down, insulating Kirk and other coaches.

5. More investigations are in play, Kirk is again in damage control trying to save legacy and a potential statue in kirks honor.

Conclusion

a. Doyle clearly a significant problem - Result Fired due to public outcry.
b. Kirk clearly knew of and supported Doyle's methods - Result TBD
c. Brian clearly wanted to be like Doyle, used his methods - Result TBD

We'll see how this ends but I know If I had this situation with my business, I'd been fired months ago with no need for an investigation.
