So sad to hear players over the years felt discriminated against. So many of the recruiting stories in recent memory were how Iowa felt like a family, which makes recent events more shocking to me.
I always loved the quote hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard. Always thought that represented much of the program. I love it when we do get higher rated recruits and also love the walk ons that make it. The state is proud of all the players that do make it to the NFL. Why most don’t make it that far we hope they all get a good education and are better prepared for life post college and are Hawks for life.
I have no issue if Doyle has to leave. Somewhat surprised no ex players ever felt like they could talk to Ferentz since some of these stories go back years I hope Iowa can correct this and be a leader or model for all schools. I like to believe Kirk will do what needs to be done. I wish the program great results this year and will respect whatever decision the players make in regards to kneeling.
Go Hawks
