**Official 2020 Iowa Hawkeye Football Offseason Thread**

[mac50702]

Didn't they stand up for Dolph after King Kong? Calling out Maisie? Are they still invited to the bbq?

 

[MikeyJoe]

How does Morehouse even continue on the beat this season? These are open expressions of contempt for the subject you report on. GTFO immediately and go write homer pieces on Wisconsin like you've always wanted to.

"Kirk, two months ago I called you a phony who hired a PR firm to cover up your systemic racism. Can you give me some thoughts on the win today over Northern Iowa?"

 

[thrawn]

An update from Blair:

Considering that Iowa used to be kind of wasteful with redshirts (stuff like Ott or Roth playing a few games on special teams), it’s nice to see them exploit the rule change.

 

[SteadyEddy]

It would seem he's pretty confident in what he says.

Looking to burn down Kirk. As others have said...if he was this confident all of this was happening the past 20 years why not say something?

 

[bigazzturkeylegs]

@MarcMorehouse
Enabled aggressive racism

 

[CamelTones]

I can’t figure out what he’s trying to say. Is he calling out the PR firm as a cover for racism and to make Kirk look like a grandpa figure all while supporting a system that degraded black athletes?

Wasn’t the PR firm hired after 2014 because of ‘That’s football’ and how Kirk was disappointed in himself with how he responded to questions from the media? Marc is claiming that was a cover?

Wtf?

All I know is that we have an entire thread about the sharpness and almost on the spectrum like memory that Kirk has. The controversy is going to go away, but Kirk isn't. He isn't going to forget each and every single one of these comments.

 

[The Full Monte]

That’s kind of a weird comment for Morehouse to make. It does fit in with the idea that he knows it’s over and just doesn’t care, however.

That’s feels very “right side of history” to me

 

[douglasbader]

They are also admonishing Iowa and Ferentz being there so long as some embarrassing or negative thing now. How about all the beat writers?

Maybe the problem is that these guys have been covering Iowa for way too long and there isn't any new blood besides maybe some unpaid kid that Farty has working on his website and a couple recruiting guys.

Where are the hungry 20 something year old beat writers?

The credit union

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Quick update, I am actually hearing some pretty shocking odds that Kirk survives the independent investigation.

like 50/50. Like, actually 50/50. For real.

so maybe the writers feel like there will be no repercussions to be had.

Not getting into newspapers

Same guy about 15 months ago:

Are you claiming that Kirk holds grudges?

They need to promote some black beat writers to connect with these kids.

Of course he holds grudges.

Is this from the same guy who said Tyler Cook had a broken ankle and was out for the year about 2 hours before he started a Big Ten game?

Every former player has spoke highly of Kirk. This cancel culture is cool, until they come after somebody or something you like

Lol.

 

[douglasbader]

If that were remotely true, then Harreld would not only need to fire Kirk, but also a majority of his staff and Barta as well. 2 months before the season and in the middle of a pandemic when money is an issue even for schools like Iowa.

Sure, Jan.

Give us Bartabbas!

 

[KitKatApples]

Does he know how it will look?

 

[Pedro]

do you think that an organization with 100% black people is the most diverse or least diverse?

Not diverse at all.

The beauty of this country and message board is that you can fucking ignore me if you want.

 

[BillyBob]

I'm hearing some pretty shocking odds that L Wade is full of shit.

 

[TJones3312]

50/50

 

[L. Wade Childress]

None of that is my opinion btw, that’s a quote.

 

[Charles]

Shut the fuck up. You aren't an insider regardless of what the laundry boy at Kinnick tells you. You fucking SUCK.

 

[CamelTones]

Maybe I’ve been living under a rock but I didn’t even know there was an independent investigation. Thought Kirk was doing one and Barta was doing a separate one.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I also heard that everyone getting excited for a full season is fucking crazy.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

kirk doesn’t do his own laundry.

 

[The Incredible Hawk]

I also heard that everyone getting excited for a full season is fucking crazy.

The NAIA already moved their start date to Sept 12, canceling the first two scheduled games of the season.

 

[Shawneemicks]

I’ve also been told a full season is not happening. Nor are full stadiums.

 

[Charles]

kirk doesn’t do his own laundry.

You deserve to be punched in the mouth on a daily basis. After a few years, maybe you'd stop being a dipshit. Maybe.

If it means that dumb fucking Friday night game that Minnesota shanghai-ed us into gets cancelled, I'm all for it. Fuck Minnesota.

 

[Charles]

LOL

 

[WCFHawkeye]

If it means that dumb fucking Friday night game that Minnesota shanghai-ed us into gets cancelled, I'm all for it. Fuck Minnesota.

I took the day off work initially and was going to try getting tickets. I have since realized if the game is played it will be a few impossible to get tickets or an empty stadium. I have since rescinded the vacation day and will watch on TV if it happens.

 

[eclone]

My high school was almost 60 percent Latino.

So less diverse than the military?

 

[HerkyHopeful]

It's kind of reminiscent of the early haydays of newspapers, where the writers would each come up with the most outlandish statements and claims in attempt to lure readers.

The difference is now we have internet at our disposal and can quite easily call them on their bullshit. I would highly encourage you all to join Jade's brigade and unleash hell on Howe, Morehouse, Licecow, phartys, brommelkamp, and any individual you determine being a limpdick Iowa media member.

If they are going with a conference only, no fan season, then it is the death of non-Power 5 programs and the NCAA affiliation as well likely.

 

[CamelTones]

Fuck the coronavirus.

Is this shit going to permanently change college athletics?

 

[douglasbader]

Fuck the coronavirus.

Not much has changed either except for dumb people misinterpreting data in the last week or so. The protesting got boring to CNN and it was time to go back to full coronavirus freak out.

 

[ivan_drago]

LOL, "someone told me," is quite the scoop Teddy.

They're playing all 12 games.

maybe, but there are a lot of important people wondering how the fuck that is possibly going to happen right now
