Nepotism does happen, all the time, everywhere. Almost every company I've worked for has it, I've even benefited from it at times, and been angered by it others.
Drawing a connection between Iowa's situation and what happened at PSU is beyond reaching though, it's insulting, and inaccurate.
CJ was not abused, to say otherwise is ridiculous. He absolutely should have been pulled out of the game, but he wasn't being forced to play, he was demanding to play, and while he shouda have been told no, for the team's best interest, to say it was abuse is this victim mentality that gets talked about these days. And it's horseshite.
We stand to disagree. It was abuse. Big deal you want to thump your chest and say Iowa can't be PSU. Whether it happens or not, it isn't right at public institutions. You know he was demanding to play? You do know that players with injuries including concussions don't want to come out.
I was stupid enough to keep playing in soccer after playing out my medial meniscus and tearing about everything in my knee. My knee completely inverted and I was in denial. I even scored another goal. Today I pay for that 3 surgeries later.
BF being hired is just plain wrong. If he'd had experience as an OC at a higher level, that would be one thing.
