Question about Garmon???

[jackl]

I don't see anything wrong with his tweets... But maybe that's cuz I'm 18 and going to college this fall and think like him

Being 18 is not an excuse for thinking like a moron.

Many people here would be shocked by the number of D1 athletes that partake in the pot. It's much higher than you think.

I wouldnt be shocked but you smoke in private and dont get caught. Not like Arob being in the car with the dope.

Sounds like a stupid, arrogant, young man.

Clearly, someone needs to sit this kid down and say, "Listen. High school is over. You are now a D1 athlete at a B1G school. Everything you say, everything you do, everything you tweet, everything you post on facebook, is going to be passed from person to person to person. Then commented on, passed on again, embellished, repeated, then reposted. And all that is just by the rivals of Iowa. Everywhere you go, everything you do, everything you say, and especially every electronic communication you post, will be scrutinized. If you wouldn't say it to your grandma's face, then don't put it out in cyberspace."

Exactly, when you are getting $100,000 worth of scholarship for free schooling, a degree (maybe), and you are representing the Univ then grow up.

Keep calm chive on!

Tweets mean nothing... He definitely heard that joke and just tweeted it.

I am sure most women wouldn't find it to be very funny. Combine the tweet with the pot issue and it doesn't look to promissing for this kid.

 

[KnightHawk9]

Sometimes people retweet because they find something funny...or stupid. Retweet <> agree.

Marty Tirrell tweeted that there are more issues with Garmon back home and his future as a Hawkeye is in doubt.

If Marty says it it's got to be true.

 

[Cyhawk]

It was a pretty minor thing, Im just hoping Old Captain Kirk doesnt put the hammer down on the young man, I mean its its just a couple of teenagers smokin dope, nothin to see here...

I tend to agree with this. Also Jon can you take down the garmon arrested front page. Tired of seeing it. It was news awhile ago but really I think were making more of it than whet there is.

Marty likely heard this from the guy pumping gas next to him at the gas station.

 

[Pitbullhawkeyes]

He is done,funny how this thread is turned into a positive outlook on weed. Leave the arrested story up, it shows how a kid blows his free education away and that's OK to some Hawk fans.

 

[atomicblue224]

You cannot relies on what someone who works at teh gas station say about him. leave the young man alone let him grow. he might turn out to be fine man when he grow up

 

[ajk4st8]

Im glad social media wasn't around when I was a kid. I would have probably been depressed knowing half of my 'heros' were tweeting stuff like this.

I preferred thinking everyone was a saint as I did when I was a kid.

 

[Hawkcrush]

Very disturbing!!!!!!!!!! Even as a young stupid adolescent I never thought to say or make public any such thoughts. If this doesn't throw up a red flag I'm not sure what does. I'm just fine with the backs we have. Man what the hell is this kid thinking. I can handel the dope kids make stupid mistakes, but re-tweeting or tweeting this sh## is gross.

Troll is getting sloppy lately.

 

[FoolishFellow]

I was an idiot when I was 18, but that penis and knife re-tweet is beyond stupid.

As much as I love watching Iowa football. These kids need an education on humility, sexism, and etiquette. The football jock stereotype is getting really old. There are decent football players, and there are good kids who play for Iowa. I've heard amazingly positive things about the way Vandenberg conducts himself in public... but I've heard about and personally witnessed many arrogant, immature, stupid, sexist, and lazy actions of many of Iowa's (current and past) star football players and they should not get a free pass because of their local-celeb status.

If all of these kids want to be professional athletes someday they should not be wasting their time with all this stupid ****. They need some mentoring on the responsibilities of being a public figure and they need to start acting like decent humans that are capable of more than just sex, drugs, and being good at a sport.

I'm glad Garmon got caught when he did. Iowa's student athletes are ambassadors that represent the University. I want to cheer for players who are "good" on and off the field.

IF those are his actual comments, then he is as good as gone. He will be/would be in such a @$#&ing HUGE dawghouse - no matter what college he went to - he might as well be planning his next move to a JUCO. Period.

 

[Billso]

Sounds like a major ********* to me. The penis or knife joke, huh? Nothing quite like the belly laugh you get from killing people if they don't let you rape them.

And I'm sure it's extra hilarious to KF and the administration, given recent history at Iowa...
