Coker Suspended for Insight Bowl

[Other]

WTF is going on in Ft Kinnick? This is a colossal screw up.

This is all my fault, guys...last night I was talking to a buddy of mine about this craptastic season and...I didn't mean to...I didn't even know I was going to...but...I did it...I said,"It couldn't possibly get any worse than this"...

Wow, good thing Oklahoma doesn't want to be there and play or we'd be fukd!!

For the record, going into last year's Insight Bowl, Marcus Coker had more career carries than all the other current running backs on Iowa's roster have now. Combined.

Blasphemy!

Seriously, this routine is getting old real fast, why can we not keep running backs out of trouble/healthy/on the team/with their pants up?

WOW!!! I never would have thought Coker would be suspended for any time of off the field stuff. He seems like a good kid and smart kid. The timing seems to be something of an academic nature since finals just got done last week and he was practicing up to this point.

Coach Ferentz is just trying to level the playing field and generate more interest for this game. Being a 16 point dog wasn't big enough.

Why the hell can't these guys stay out of trouble between the last game and the bowls. Rediculous.

Silver lining is that there are plenty of practice reps left to the guys that haven't got the game reps.

But seriously, AIRBHG strikes again.

 

[David79]

If I was Garmon I would commit. Looks like he could get immediate playing time, of course then something would happen with him.

Brad Rodgers, your ship has come in!!!!!!

Exactly... should be an easy win.

that is actually a good point. Bruise away Mr. Rogers.

Great question, bhd! And one I don't have an answer for...it's getting to be "Cubs curse" like for Iowa and their RBs...

As was stated in an earlier post somewhere, we may finally see JVB in a shotgun formation. MAY!

 

[herbyhawk]

should not be grades as he is supposed to be studying Astro Physics

 

[HawkeyeShane]

I'm surprised Ferentz didn't immediately forfeit the game since he's going to have to use freshmen RBs in the game now...

 

[FML]

What about Damon Bullock, he looked decent from the very limited carries I saw

Time to dust off the 2004 playbook.

The issue involves University of Iowa policies and has resulted in Coker being in violation of the UI Student-Athlete Code of Conduct.

It is not something of an academic nature.
