This shit is exhausting. What a waste of time. If they were mentally and emotionally abused.......why the hell do you stay there when you have 130 other schools you could go to?!? Leave. Quit. Transfer. Don't come back years later and say 'me too'.
 
The "Age Of Appeasement" is a part of college sports... :twitch:
 
So horrible for Akrum Wasley that he encouraged his younger brother to go to Iowa.
 
Read the replies of this tweet.

 
Don't try to make me feel bad for Iowa.
 
So some kids are upset that there is favoritism between the 3rd string and the starters with their "punished differently" BS? And a college football player who rolls up in a BMW is upset someone made sure a booster didn't supply it?

Sounds like a lawyer trying to get some extortion money and a couple of nobody kids realize they aren't getting NFL money.

“After I’m finished with football, I want to come back and be a mayor,” Wadley said with a big grin on his face. “I want to run for mayor. I’m going to get in politics and run for mayor.”

Wadley wasn’t necessarily referring to Iowa City, although, he’d probably be a popular candidate because of his colorful personality and because of his success as an Iowa football player.

The Newark, N.J. native enters Friday’s game against Nebraska with 2,625 career rushing yards, 31 touchdowns and 13 games in which he has rushed for at least 100 yards.

“I might go back home,” Wadley said. “I might come to Iowa. I don’t know. I’m going to get into it. I think I can do it.”

Wadley didn’t really have an answer when asked what about politics intrigued him. He paused for a few seconds before saying:

“I don’t know. I just want to do it. I’m not going to get into that.”

Refer to the OP to see why this kid will be unhireable in the NFL.
 
8 former players who squandered a free college education and seemingly had no back-up plan, recruited by a Tulsa law firm to try cashing in on the blm movement .......surprising.
 
If Derrell Johnson-Koulianos is on that list of 8, he is the only one I say is not all of a sudden. He has been open about not liking Trump since getting kicked off the program. I have some respect for him. He owned up to everything. But it is no secret him and Ferentz are not on the best terms.
 
Also included in the letter

a permanent Black male senior administrator position in Iowa athletics; mandatory anti-racist training for athletics staff; the establishment of a board of advisers including Black players and anti-racist professionals to oversee the football program; and tuition waivers for any Black athlete who did not graduate with a degree during Kirk Ferentz’s 22-year tenure.

According to the letter, if the demands are not met to the former athletes’ satisfaction by Monday, Oct. 19, the athletes were prepared to pursue a lawsuit “to ensure they are rightfully compensated for their emotional, mental and bodily damages and that Iowa is appropriately held accountable for its unlawful, discriminatory conduct.”

Wait so there should be tuition waivers for players who didn’t pay tuition or are the tuition waivers for the walk-ons who could quit the team at any time without any repercussions?
