Do you disagree that he has been labeled a racist by most if not all media outlets?
And I’m sorry to burst some bubbles but this is pretty much how all football programs run. It’s just that most schools have had coaches for such a short period of time there’s no one out there complaining.

I’m sorry. What’s the difference? They are one in the same to me.I think most stories talk about racially biased or racial discriminatory statements but I can't think of one right off hand that actually called him racist. I say that understanding that if I was Chris Doyle it would not be a very meaningful distinction to me.
How many times were you dropped on your head as a child? Don't worry, you're in the circle of trust here, you can tell us.

We live in a world now where public schools let kids take a test multiple times until they get a grade they like. The school administrators don't want kids feeling any pressure or anxiety about anything. I am not sure which employers will pay employees not to be prepared to do jobs correctly the first time, but maybe there are some out there that will.
Paid for autographed memorabilia, cash taken, items never sent.I may have missed it in this thread, but I have seen a few references to Wadley stealing money from Iowa fans. What is that all about?
If he was a white S&C coach who harmed people he would already have $1.2 mil of that settlement money in the bank

F off. I’m a libtard and I disagree with wadley
In my opinion, a racist is someone who makes statements or judgments about a person based on their race and for a malicious purpose. It isn't accidental. Think skin heads, Aryan Nation, white supremacist.
Being racially biased or discriminatory can be inadvertent and not coming from a place of hate. I think many Americans are used to what they know, where they came from, and how they were raised and accept those things as "normal" and don't give much thought to how the "normal" parts of my life could be completely offensive and inappropriate to someone else.
That's a super simplistic explanation of large concepts but it's really about the motivation and intent behind a statement.
Again, if it was even 50% as bad as he's claiming now he should have an WOULD have left then. Just another indicator that this is crap, and his real problem is he didn't end up getting that NFL meal ticket, and now someone has to pay.The most telling thing to me is that Wadley had a chance to leave early. Kiper had Wadley ranked the #6 running back in January 2017.
He did answer it I guess.
“It is positive news to know that Akrum has made the decision to be with our program for his senior season,” said Ferentz. “Akrum has displayed growth and maturity during his career, and had an outstanding season in 2016. We look forward to Akrum being a key member of our team in 2017.” Ferentz said.
Wadley added the following in the release:
“It was the right decision for me and my family. I met with my parents and we laid out the pros and cons, and came to the decision that it would be best for me to stay at Iowa for my senior year. The main three reasons are to earn my degree, to have another year to prepare physically, and to not end my collegiate career on a bad note; we have some unfinished business.”
“I would like to thank coach Ferentz. We had good conversations and he let me know that he would be there either way, he would have my back. I also want to express my appreciation for all the support from my teammates, and the great and loyal Iowa fans.”
Exactly right Doug. KF's long tenure has the program firmly entrenched into a "culture" that literally just a few months ago was being lauded on national TV over the one at mighty USC, because of the values, discipline, and consistency of the program. And now.....Same guy, same program, same values..."You either die a hero, or you coach long enough to see yourself become the villain."
Sincerely,
Coach Batman

listening to blm and antifa. won't be long till the hawkeyes change their name because it is offensive to american indiansThat’s total BS. Listening to players and making a few changes hopefully for the good doesn’t make us a “woke team” and not the same team. You’re just ridiculous.
How is the name offensive to american indians? Hawkeye was a white guy adopted by the Mohicans.listening to blm and antifa. won't be long till the hawkeyes change their name because it is offensive to american indians

Let them all ramble on. They get offended very easily. How dare they change the Redskins name? Our old white guys on here are offended by this. I still have no idea why, but they are!
120+ years ago.... that's too funny.Sitting Bull would disagree.
Kind of like most of your views from the 1950’s, you know when kids listened to their parents, players just shut up and played, etc.
Or the 1990s.. This dramatic shift into child disobedience, self-entitlement, and soft, permissive parenting has taken shape very recently.Kind of like most of your views from the 1950’s, you know when kids listened to their parents, players just shut up and played, etc.
People like you are the issue.Look at some of the posts in this thread for your answer for why no one said anything before.
You guys just keep showing your true colors as the world turns on you. Must be rough! Tell June Cleaver hello for me.
Unless you're talking about the name Iowa, which was taken from a tribe. I doubt they're going to change state names.
so much irony in you telling others not to be so dramatic. Your whole existence on this issue is overdramaticDon't be so overdramatic. No one is arguing that the players should get to do whatever they want whenever they want without any rules.
"Hello and Welcome to Iowa football fall camp. Our goal here is to make sure everyone in this room is pushed to reach his maximum potential to benefit this team. At Iowa, there are requirements of each of you as an individual and of each of you as a teammate. We expect that you will meet and exceed those requirements as you fulfill your obligation to leave the jersey in a better place."
you do realize that 9 out of 10 Indians are proud of the name Redskins and don't want to remove. It's just white liberals that are offended.Let them all ramble on. They get offended very easily.

Hilarious. You guys are so clueless. You always think you know better.Sitting Bull would disagree.

Famous last words. Don't put anything past the leftist mob.
