The conclusion of the report is that there have been problems, but positive steps have been taken, the program is in a better place now than it was a month ago, and will be in a better place still a year from now. This is all positive, unless you expect perfection from the start.

BUT NOTHING TO CELEBRATE because I’m a nasty little shit.

It’s not healthy to try and figure out what’s going through pharty’s mind.

There are too god damn many people covering Iowa sports and 95% of them are shit.
The one thing that modern era of sports writing has produced is a bunch of dudes that learned to write on a website thinking that clicks are the measure of ‘good’.

I think I realized that my favorite sports beat writer today is Sid Hartman. ( -____- )

I think Sid has better sources than any of the Hawkeye beat writers. Well, him or his ghost writer.

This fat disgusting fuck exercises??

In fairness, a two month witch-hunt perpetuating numerous unfounded allegations is exhausting.

Anyone else think it’s just slightly ironic that Rob watches Last Chance U? The episode I just watched had the featured coach tell a player he was going to “rip his balls off” and that the player is lucky that the coach like him, otherwise he’d “rip his balls off him and make him eat them”.

Amen. These guys wanna talk about abuse?

Jason Brown is the poster child for coaching abuse. That slapdick was a fucking lunatic.

I thought Barta stating that he really does manage Brian was an interesting nugget

Watch the Indee or Laney Last Chance U and that's why Iowa has the rules they have.

Rob should be forced to cover a JuCo for at least one season.

Is that later in the current season? I'm only like 2 episodes in to this last season and I've actually really liked this HC so far.

He gets pretty bad as the season goes. Seems like an ok guy, but he definitely crosses numerous lines.

Emmert in the DMReg included this as evidence of Ferentz's public statements about Wadley:

In December 2017, at a preview of Iowa’s trip to the Pinstripe Bowl, being played in New York near Wadley’s New Jersey hometown, Ferentz said: “Probably the scariest thing right now is to think that Akrum Wadley might be our tour guide during this trip. That's a little frightening to me.”

Does he think that's a serious statement? It's clearly tongue in cheek. Why do these guys have to be such fucking idiots?

They have to be trolling. Or really stupid.

That quote is the only reason Wadley wasn’t drafted. I’m surprised it wasn’t a major headline going into the draft. I mean some Draft experts had Wadley as high as a possible fifth rounder

Lol, I hope when he is watching Last Chance U he realizes that the culture across football is seemingly universal. They have a coach on there telling the players they need to have “big dick energy”, their head coach calls the entire team a bunch of “entitled pussies” at one point. He has his preferred guys and they get more opportunities and praise than the few whipping boys he has, etc. Not going to minimize what was obviously a culture issue, but Howe has spent the better part of two months shitting on BF/KF for shit he will see immediately on Last Chance U. I’m fairly certain he’s too dim to realize it.

If that's the same article as the one on hawk central then I didn't read it the same way as you, I guess. Felt like that's the only "controversial" (completely joking) thing Kirk ever said about Wadley.

It makes more sense that that dimwit watches that show and thinks it's unfair and he thinks he's waging a crusade against bully coaches. He's a real faggot.
