Confirming that Ku Klux Kirk and members of his staff were racist. Thank you.
no they'd just get fired... I"d rather learn a lesson and be embarrassed with a trash can on my head. You see life isn't easy and the sooner kids realize that the better... the trash can was a lesson nothing more and nothing less
Life isn’t that hard. Don’t be a racist piece of crap, don’t degrade and belittle people to make yourself feel better about yourself. Don’t make excuses for those that continue those asinine practices.
You see bigotry and racism everywhere? Can you be more specific? Remember you said everywhere.
The Iowa program's problem is the same as the problem at Penn State with JoePa. Kirk Ferentz has more power than anyone in Iowa state government. He'll say the right things all the while making it clear the only one who can fix Iowa is someone with the last name Ferentz. It reveals the lie that his middle name is "humility". His ego and ambition are equal in size. Kirk will do and say whatever it takes to make sure one of his sons succeeds him. It's very revealing that no one else will be fired. 1.1 million is a lot of money but a small price to pay to save the jobs of every Ferentz at the University. Kirk won't retire because then he would actually be taking the responsibility he says he wants to take for the program. He might become PC, and he'll use these changes as an excuse to get back to winning 7 games per season, and the AD will praise him as a miracle worker for that "achievement". From here on out it is Kirk Farce, not Kirk Ferentz.
Seeing some Husker fans blowing things out of proportion is even funnier. Put some salve on that butthurt from the last 5 losses and see that you are throwing rocks from a glass house. These accusations could hit any program, any organization.
I don't think the issue is that big at Iowa, but your statement is hilarious as anytime something goes on at Nebraska your fans run over here and start flapping their gums and then your come over here and whine about it. See ya.
You keep saying that, trying to normalize this, yet it’s just Iowa. You might find this shocking, but systematic racism and a weak ass leadership aren’t widespread, it’s an Iowa problem.
And nice deflection bringing up the amazing results of Klansman Kirk. Congrats again on the last second FG victory. The peak of Iowa football seems....interesting.
Answer the question gasbag.....it must really suck that the “Iowa way” has been exposed as a fraud...Iowa fans no longer have the, “Iowa football has never been consistently elite, but at least we run a clean program” to fall back on...now it’s just, “Iowa football has never been consistently elite”...
I believe it's more of a jab at all you Herky fans since you're notorious for taking the littlest bit of negative news and blowing it way out of proportion, especially when it comes to Nebraska. No salve needed, jokes on you! Funny you should use the word SALVE, I bet it was hard putting the "L" after the "A" coming from Iowa!

No one ever threatened to send a kid back to the ghetto. The kid claimed Doyle said it, then clarified that Doyle said he’d send him back to Glenville, which the player interpreted as “the ghetto.”
Morrow got off the bike to speak with Doyle, who, according to Morrow, began a "verbal assault, mother-F'ing me down," and questioning Morrow's toughness.
"After a while, I start firing back. I definitely gave him an F-bomb, like, 'F you, who are you?'" Morrow said. "We're going back and forth. I never said anything racial but it was definitely a verbal altercation, we got face-to-face. That's when he said, 'F--- you, I'll send your ass back to Glenville.' He was insinuating that he'd send me back to where he would always joke about -- the hood, the ghetto. That's what he would always say."

He also said Ghetto and said it to multiple players. I know you have seen this, you are just choosing to play dumb.

Brandon Simon said Doyle told him to "Go back to the streets".
Terrance Harris said Doyle threatened to "Send him back to the ghetto"
I gotta agree with ya on your comment. The OP.... A lot of good NE level headed unbiased postings on this.
First the players were making it up. Now the choice of words has changed. Soon they are going to say it was a case of mistaken identity and welcome Coach Doyle back with a raise.
Gotta question if those are real Husker fans and not Iowa fans that have infiltrated the board, IMO. Coach Doyle was fired for a reason after all. And that reason was racism. Clear as day to see.
The whole scandal is so very “Iowa”, I mean why not alienate African-American players? Who needs African American athletes to make a competitive team??? If I was an Iowa fan, I would quickly adopt this into my repertoire of reasons for the lack of sustained success of Iowa football...
I would be fine with that if it was a lesson white players learned as well. The question is, was it? If so, then carry on. If not, why only black players?
He likes the sticky icky too much. Otherwise, he is a good fella. What does that have to do with the "Iowa Way?"
For the record, I'm glad the freerents will be around for awhile. And Iowa sucks bigly.
What the hell does that even mean? Are you saying Kittle is a pothead? Or equating smoking weed with racism? Either way, just stupid.
Why do Iowa clowns post on here? Spend some time with yore kids.
They’re still getting used to idea that the Iowa football program is not as squeaky clean as they’ve been lead to believe....It’ll be tough for them moving forward, not being able to play the holier than thou card all the time...there’s going to be a long learning curve..

Learning curve? Open your eyes Bud because class is over. You’all just talking about old news it’s time to move on boyz.
KKKF force BF to resign yet? If no, this scandal will live on...must suck for Iowa fans to have lost one of their strongest arguments for the lack of sustained success in Iowa football..
Bump.
Can anyone shed light on this? Was the trash can experience for both black and white players? If not, how do you explain it then?

So says a B1G bottom feeder team fan.
Since joining the B1G Nebraska is tied with Northwestern for 6th and Ioway is 5th.
You do know how many teams are presently in the conference don’t you..
This statement makes no sense and smells of someone grasping at straws. RG made the NFL, no one at Nebraska discriminated against him. What happened to him was his own inability to give up the weed. Swing and a miss!
I'm sure you would love that, but unfortunately people don't typically move on until an issue has actually been addressed. So as long as the Iowa fans and admin continue to deny and ignore, it will probably live on.
Yes, congrats again on the last second FG victory. The hight of Iowa football seems awesome, 8-win seasons and widespread racism. The Iowa way, you must be so proud.

This is part of the problem. White people declaring to Black kids what is and what is not racism.
While no doubt this happens, I’m pretty sure it was over 50 former black players who claimed racism.
Since @Rick Chick won’t answer my question about the trash can, can you tell me, was that an equal opportunity punishment? Did white players who were late also get a new helmet for practice in the form of a trash can? Or were those special helmets reserved for just the black players?
Word has it that it wasn’t an actual trash/garbage can to begin with. It’s old news anyway.
Pictures are better than words..prove it.
I may continue to bump this thread based on the title alone.....although with the local Idiot Out Walking Around fan here I most likely won’t have to bump it at all...
Humor me... whatever the punishment was, was it equal opportunity, black and white students alike suffered that punishment? Why are you so afraid to answer the question?
Old news, huh? I guess I didn’t realize there was a statute of limitations on what many former Iowa players are calling racism.
Is that the “word”? Keep saying it’s old news and denying it, that’s what will make it go away...
It's all good, Rick. Coach was a pretty decent TV show back in the day. Just don't try to tell us that Iowa played for a natty because absolutely nobody will believe that.
