I can't wait till they try and cover it up and someone from the hospital leaks info to the press and then the whistleblower subsequently gets fired . . . and then the head coach invents an award to give to the assistant in charge of the workout. And then the HC hires his son-in-law in stealth fashion and is labeled the classiest person in all of sports and given a lifetime contract.

This could have been a very productive thread. Perhaps if you would have had some real commentary on the issue it would have been. Certainly you are within your rights to comment as you desire. But it seems like a waste, since if you don't like KF we have already heard it all before and your commentary could have been on any number of other threads. Instead it appears to have killed this legitimate topic before it got off the ground.
Oh well.
Oh well.

Now, now... can't go interrupting a free cruise. It's not like the coach is a millionaire or something

As long as a cat acts like a cat people will complain about the cat. Maybe that head cat should get new whiskers
Obviously they spent all of their money getting the best and forgot to put up the urine color charts over the urinals like I saw in the Missouri locker room in 2011.

You forgot the part about let's blame the players because they were partying too much before the workouts. There was a lot of that BS going around from the sickest of the Blind Homer Crowd.
Someone mentioned that this could have been a productive thread.
How about this.
Don't EVER stop questioning an "organization" that makes millions and millions of dollars and is scared to death that its "brand" is going to be sullied. They usually put self preservation above everything else.
And has anyone ever truly explained or even pressed KF on why he gave Doyle that award?

When you just had the year that Oregon had I would say the tendency to want to push people to their physical limit during workouts would be in every coach in America. This is an almost identical scenario to what we saw happen at Iowa. I am most interested to see how Oregon recovers. Although our incident was a larger scale (more players) we struggeld to recover. We followed up the rhabdo with the 2011 and 2012 seasons. I hope it goes better for Oregon...or maybe I don't lol.

The reason Penn State is now referred to by most people as Ped State - is because loyal Nittany Lions let things get out of control. You see it in politics all the time: "Yeah, I think we should get rid of the constitution now that we have our man in the whitehouse." - "Yeah, I think we should use the nuclear option in the senate."
Well, now who has those powers? Ya should've thought about the future. But too many fans are just like Barta, completely unable or unwilling to see the road they are on.

God you are the dumbest asshole on here. What happened at Iowa was a accident, Iowa had no idea that its players would be hurt by those workouts, they had been doing that sort of thing for years, and never had an incident. The thing about Iowa is once it did happen, they put a stop to it. Not only that, the technology that Iowa now uses it will be very difficult for these types of things to happen again.
Doyle has led the charge with the GPS technology, Iowa didn't just cover it up and continue on as if nothing happened like Penn St. or Baylor or others. They are using science and technology to better implement workouts and monitor players for injuries. Iowa was/is at the forefront for this as far as college football goes.
This wasn't from just a squatting workout either so much as pushups is what I heard. And burpees. It's just over exertion that dos i
Your first point is very valid... The second one doesn't matter so much to me. I mean I can see right through things like that. It was just a PR stunt. But things like that are done all the time. That's KFs loyalty shining through. Does it make him 'guilty' of something worse then what's known? No not at all. I mean what happened was terrible. But there's no malice to it at all. You take kids that are just a tad out of shape (relatively speaking) and throw them through something as intense as that must have been and there you go.
