That kid is a marketing genius. Playing you like a fiddle. While he is still in HS, will sell a bunch to the Hawkeye crowd who want to show their support and desire he become a hawk.
He just said his recruitment is completely open, and I’m sure he meant it.
Another possibility ….Perhaps he likes these color combinations since he is a fan of the nearby Pittsburgh Steelers.
Oh they are very NICE!!! Check it out!, NOT like lame ass F*** st. !!!
Nope, nobody likes them after the Rooney rule BS!!!!

ABOUT?????
This Rooney Rule?
The original Rooney Rule, coming up on its 21st year in the league, dictated that all NFL teams must interview at least one minority candidate for head coaching openings.
YEP, that is the one. That is called reverse discrimination!!!

Why do you say that no one likes the Steelers specifically after the Rooney Rule though?
Can't you gather from this whole thread? He has problems with 'things'.
Wow!! Just.......wow!!! Posting about a kids potential recruiting, and go there.
You new around these parts? It’s a marathon, not a sprint. Learn to pace your incredulity. He can say five things more offensive than that in a single rant. Now you’re gonna set him off and prolly see first hand. Lol
I'm learning to buckle up for the ride. Some unique personalities lol.
I-Bird, are you getting a kickback from this sales campaign?
If you are going to shill it so hard, then maybe you should.
Ironbird… there’s literally no such thing as reverse racism.
It’s either racism or it’s not. And this rule isn’t.
The rule literally says it’s just mandatory to INTERVIEW. Sheesh
That's just an interview, birdbrain. Not asking too much. My feeling is that the makeup of the coaching staff should reflect the players. Besides, sometimes the best person IS a minority candidate.
Hmmm, I like this idea!!!I-Bird, are you getting a kickback from this sales campaign?
If you are going to shill it so hard, then maybe you should.
uh what? who said reverse racism??? Now if ones definition of racism is not correct??? Then not sure how you look at it?
Any business should be run properly. If it is not run properly, most likely it will have problems. In the NFL, do you really believe anyone is going to pass by better personnel because they are racist!?!?!?!?
NOT THIS BEAR!!!!! : )Sorta fun to poke the bear.
Yes... that's why the rule was instituted.
OK, so what you are saying is- the white people involved in the NFL are racist and need a rule to tell them who they have to interview? Ok got it, thanks for the clarification!
I think @vhsalum might be saying there is some merit to the idea of implicit bias.
See: https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/user/agg/blindspot/indexrk.htm
if you're interested.
The Rooney Rule addressed this.
Thank you. It was difficult for me NOT to say what you just did… lol
My brother in law is black and he has addressed this to me. People would say it's who you know. He would counter with who you know knows what you know. This can however cause certain blind spots.
Yes. 1000 times over yes.
It's what @98lberEating2Lunches posted. It's not as nefarious as "racism" in that the owners think minorities are an inherently lesser human being than people who look like them. It's that there's a barrier, there's bias and this just forces a group to be INCLUSIVE. That's all. It's not a big deal. It's not "reverse racism" - It's progress and eventually it won't be needed anymore.
Reverse racism. Lol All racism is….. racism.
Many hope and pray this ^^^ for future generations. But I fear it will never die and will always need to be guarded against. I point no further than the backlash against diversity and inclusion programs.
Because the people that push these programs don't won't diversity and inclusion, they want a leg up, an advantage. Don't look at what it's called, look at the internals ( the program materials), who is making money from it, and what they actually want to accomplish.
Part of the reason I left my last position was due to racism against white people. The head of the agency is white and apparently feels a ton of guilt for the sins of our ancestors. That still doesn’t make it right or acceptable. Discriminating against someone due to skin color or ethnicity is racism.
