1.4 million to Jane (I assume Tracey will now get a check instead of a trial)

Here we go.

Hopefully we don't have to go anywhere.

If y'all stay on topic and away from politics, the conversation can continue.

If not, it goes bye-bye.

HN Extra or Free boards, there are no politics. One of the oldest rules on here.

When has discussing politics ever gotten out of hand or personal?

Hypocrite. Lots of feckless attempts at intimidation using personal attacks and profanity and non sequiturs from you.

No politics but we can still talk about the divisiveness of Meyer and Griesbaum getting millions of dollars from the U of I. OK, I'm down with that.

 

[Joshbrown]

Now Meyers is going to sue for another 2 million and her lawyers want an investigation into the Iowa athletic dept, plus they still have to deal with Griesbaum's case. This is not good at all for the University of Iowa. If they lose all three cases, it's gonna look really, really bad. Yeah, someone will probably get fired, and I bet this is exactly what Meyers and Griesbaum want. Barta ended their careers at Iowa, now they are trying to turn the table and end his. This is revenge.

Oh it is revenge.
And even though everyone is saying this debacle is now over and Barta is safe in his job . . . he isn't.
They just incentivized others to embrace their entitlement.

More importantly, Barta is on his way out. As I stated somewhere else, it will take a while. But settling doesn't end this. Because settling doesn't change the fact that Barta is lacking in many areas. His incompetence isn't going to suddenly disappear.

Entitlement already existed with incredible payouts. Therein lies the foundation of the issue, not p c.
