Unhappy players coming back???

How could he possibly come back after painting himself into a corner with his latest statements for the sole purpose of money.
it’s too bad as he was a fan favorite not long ago.

Will he bring along the merchandise he owes the fans?
If you're trying to move a culture forward to be more inclusive, excluding people who had complaints is not a good step.
If they didnt personally attack any fellow teammates they will be allowed back. They will be thought of as idiots but they will be allowed.
The question is do they totally lack self awareness that they think everyone is going to forget what they did? But usually people like that dont care.

Show me where Iowa wasnt inclusive?
His dbaggery seemed to include all colors fwiw
1st post in 5 years? Hmmm lol
Anyhow I'd be shocked to see wadley anywhere in the state
That is true. Either way, if Iowa is trying to fix the culture that was bullying, isolating and hurting people. Exluding anyone who spoke out in the future (I'm talking everyone, not just Wadley and Flemming), then it defeats the purpose of trying to move forward.
People like what? Who call out BS? There were a lot of "people like thats" whether you think their complaints are valid or not. Not welcoming them back just proves they were right about Iowa culture. Just like your post. Or is success of team all that matters like Penn St?
Not saying he’s not welcome back but wondering how shameful he must feel to come back after making statements that contradict both his actions and earlier words for getting money. If he needed money that bad, why not set up a go fund me page and appeal to the fan base which has always proven to be gracious and supportive.
I would be very surprised if they are ever allowed back unless they buy their own tickets. You don’t get to cost your university what was likely over a million with the Doyle separation for what is beginning to look like it was for the chance at a civil case and then expect to be welcomed back
Doyle cost the university that.
A Minnesota cop coupled with a whole bunch of unemployed people cost them that. Let’s not even pretend that Doyle is any more of a hard disciplinarian than any other strength coach in the country. Throw on top of it social media and boom, instant outrage and calls for heads all the while we are finding out that this whole thing was seemingly to get a civil suit out of the university where college-educated athletes are incapable even writing their own statements
Well, if he's no different than most people in authoritative positions, that says everything you need to know about this country for the last 200 years. Good for you dinesour.
I couldn't see Wadley coming back if his time playing football was so traumatic for him as he says it was
I sincerely hope that this isn't what you really think. I hope you wake up this morning and think yikes, I should have closed my eyes at 2:13 and not hit post reply.

There are people raising concerns, and there are people trying to tear the program down.
The people who raised concerns are obviously welcome back, as Jaleel Johnson and a couple other players have already been back.
Wadley is not welcome back. He chose to pursue monetary gain over shaping the future of Iowa football in a positive manner. He has every right to make that choice, but he's also accountable for it. He's now in DJK-land. As far as I know, the other players trying to tear the program down transferred out anyway, so there's no reason to invite them back.
Only reason Wadley needs to come back is to finish his work for a degree.
And he is to lazy to do that

English major at Iowa, huh?
Or do you "Finnish" every sentence for the purpose of sounding "to" stupid?
It's absolutely amazing the unrivaled insight and virtue signaling demonstrated by some Iowa fans.
After reading this board since the George Floyd incident, it makes perfect sense why Iowa struggles to land top athletes.
turns out nobody was ever trying to be inclusive and "move culture forward". turns out Robert T Green was trying to move his bank account balance forward.
basically this news came out yesterday. it was out before but it blew up yesterday. it is 100% accurate, this Robert T green fellow is making up crap and writing statements for players. it is sad. too bad doyle was caught up in this fraud.
Little weird time to post that comment when we have our best recruiting class in over a decade.
if player(s) truly that unhappy at Iowa there would be little reason for them to come back to visit. If they do come back, they will have to be reAdy for any repercussions.
I think any unhappy player should be able to come back and be accepted, and be allowed to talk to KF as much as they wanted. Change won't happen until those that are affected are able to talk to those that affected them. It's ok, this is how we grow and become better.
And a 4 star black linebacker and a high 3 star black WR. Last year took Craig who had several blue blood offers.
I don't mind Kirk's approach to seeking the right character fits for the program. We certainly follow the Patriots model and it's been working fairly well.
if they want to come back, that is fine. KF will probably be open to most. It will be others who may not
My point is if they re that upset, I doubt they would come back
But....sooo much PTSD to deal with in Iowa City. I can't imagine the night sweats, flashbacks, and re-kindling of all of the tortured memories would be worth it. Maybe someday, after many decades of healing, they will be able to return and face their nightmare.
Question---Have you ever been around a high level S&C coach and watched him work??????? It can be very a in your face session.
After listening to the players them selves it obvious there were some athletes that couldnt handle that or to be PC the athlete didnt respond
positively to being critiqued for his poor performance.
D1 football isnt for anyone. Not only physically but mentally as well.
There isnt a lot of time for hand holding.
I have absolutely no issues with KF or CD.
