More bad news coming?

Can't figure out how to post a screen shot on here, but on twitter seeing a post from a text convo with someone on the team confirming the rumors.

Sounds like 1 game for both Alaric Jackson and Cedric Lattimore.

Take it for what it's worth.

Says team meeting was this morning
 
I didn't hear anything on Lattimore, doesn't mean it's not true.

I did hear on Monday that Jackson would be suspended. It did NOT just happen, it happened over the summer. Given that there was nothing legally that came out, my guess is violation of team rules of some sort. I was told it is one game, FWIW.
That's good news, all things considered.

Marc Morehouse just tweeted he expects two suspensions at some point. Gaining some traction with the Iowa Media.
 
Believe they are all staying together at a hotel for camp are they not? Thought they did that until camp breaks. maybe curfew deal. who knows.
 
I for one hope this is the last of any suspension issues for this team. Get these backups some good reps in practice because in 3 1/2 weeks the real bullets start flying.

Shocker!
 
I agree, but I suppose it depends on the violation. At any rate, regardless of what happened, if he's suspended for a second time he would have to be on a "zero tolerance" policy from here on out.

Might be something AJ did not complete in response to the "punishment" from the original incident. Who knows - obviously not legal this time or we would have seen something. Either way holding players accountable- good - as aggravating as it is to the staff.

*** edited. Blair posted the press release right when I posted this. So there you go
 
So,...any guesses as to who the 5 offensive lineman L-R in the huddle will be for Northern Illinois game? This is more than concerning. Two sophomore running backs....and a make shift offensive line. N.Illinois all-American DE will be baptizing somebody.
 
Great opportunity for some guys to step up. Maybe it would be nice if some of these guys who can't abide by the rules were to get Wally Pipped, lose their jobs permanently. That would be a pretty awesome lesson.

The rest of the team will, no doubt, come together over this ongoing string of disappointments. And it should make it even clearer to players and coaches alike that they need to come out on fire against NIU, dominate the game from the opening whistle, and never let up. Show the boys on suspension that the Hawkeyes are just great without them.

I wouldn't mind seeing Jackson get Wally Pipped to he honest. He's got to be down to his last strike by now.

I would imagine Kallenberger is the LT and either ferguson or levi paulson is the RT. RBs are fine. I would guess you see a lot of 2 and 3 TE sets in the game. Smith is LB size and is the biggest threat in the passing game. Not reallyt worried.
 
But didn't everyone do flips and cartwheels when the new redshirt rule come out??? And just think the 2nd team guys (who the fans KNOW are better players) will get their shot and make all the stadium and couch coaches happy!!!! If Iowa is going to have a good season depth would have to be there anyway. Gonna find out really quick!

GOT MY TICKETS TODAY.....SO LET'S GO!!!

Yep. Outside of suspensions, if there’s substance to this, what’s also bothersome is the lack of discipline and focus. The season is right around the damn corner! This team is starting to feel like the 06-07 “fat cats” teams that didn’t give a damn half the time.
I'd put the '05 and '10 teams in that fat cats category. Both came after very successful seasons and were way too talented to finish with 5 losses. 05 loss to ISU was pathetic and I'll never forget Greenway and his buddies raising the roof and yucking it up on sidelines in waning minutes of NW game with a lead only to piss it away. That fat cats line really backfired on the Capt when you look at how few seasons we've had with less than 5 losses since (3 in 13 seasons)

Umm, no. Kid is a stud.

Maybe. But he's also on consecutive one game suspensions, which I think is a first under KF. At this rate it wouldn't be a surprise to see him finish his career elsewhere, so someone less challenged with off the field issues can win that spot, great.

No.
 
No worries, you play ISU the second week. Old Kirk will have him back by then!

How many games did Irving miss in 2013 for slapping his girlfriend around? I will take KF's record of disciplining players over anything you clowns can put forward.
 
I know people make mistakes (I know I did when I was 18-21), but it's not like people treat these players special outside of the university's ridiculous coddling - they're just another face in the crowd here in Iowa City. They shouldn't be getting big heads and thinking they're above the law, nor team rules, regardless of whether they're a starter or 4th on the depth chart.

I don't like the way this season is trending. How it plays out remains to be seen, but things aren't looking good. It feels like we're seriously lacking leadership this season. Someone needs to step up in the locker room and right this ship... quickly.
