11 players suspended for the bowl game and 5 are off the team. That's the latest out there on the rumor front. Thankfully a press release is suppose to be coming today and a KF press conference later in the week. Nice. I'll wear my Hawkeye cap and fleece proudly all week. Hoffa, you're in IC, correct? Yes, I have several "sources" ranging from former players to people very close to the Athletic Department at this point all of those "sources" are saying they know shit and have no clue what is or isn't true. What gets me is how this fucking thing just keeps getting bigger and bigger, I have been called from friends of mine in college that I talk to once a year that have heard things from 4 different people all over the fucking country and wanted to see if I knew anything. I am done with this shit. At this point until KF or the AD releases a statement I am calling BS on all of it. It just gets to the point that it's idiotic the level it has gone to.

I have a pretty good feeling shit is going to hit the fan soon with a bunch of players getting busted for failing a drug test. If they really did randomly test the team I would imagine a large percentage of them would at least get busted for smoking weed. If they did an completely unexpected drug test at most schools this would probably happen though. This should be an interesting week, that much is certain.

You didn't get put in timeout for a week? I did that last summer for someone (I can't remember who) but I got the same message that it was unacceptable to promote other message boards on his site and got banned for a week. Nobody puts Seth K in timeout. NOBODY. Not even Jon Fucking Miller. You year me, Scott?!? ;D Nope....no email, no public admonishment, no behind-closed-doors flogging....no banning....but my post disappeared faster than my Crown on game days.

He must have some sort of "wasteland detector" because the link to this site was in my inbox over there and now it's gone. I never said a word about this site over there, but he found the link somehow.

you know, I wanna see this awful season come to a close and those who are responsible for this complete fuck up be held 1000% accountable but if the full brunt of the class 5 hurricane shit storm hits, it'll almost be like the hawks are on probation and have to rebuild for the next 3 seasons..........I don't wanna see that.

Yeah, the Ferentz rumor has been out there a few days. Think it is tied with the Watergate comment. But most recent rumors about the presser tomorrow say staff changes and up to 11 players not going to bowl. Could say Hawks are at 4 right now if you count Wegs. So that might mean 7 more.
But it is all very fuzzy. However, generally when you correlate everything together over the last week, it generally has been pretty accurate. One thing I am hearing with some consistency is no McNutt, at least for bowl.
BTW: If you didn't get the Mizzou bet in yet, you are out of luck.
Not a rumor.

I don't understand if there are more players that are going to miss the game why they would single out Hampton and more so A-Rob in the press release last night? That just doesn't make a hell of a lot of sense if you ask me. But who knows.

Turns out it was all bullshit. No one suspended outside of ARob. Just called the conference to address the rumors/concerns from parents.

This pretty much verifies to me that Iowa has the worst fans in college sports. I'm been getting so increasingly agitated this year that I almost want to give up. I hope Iowa has a couple more ~.500 seasons so those fuckwad bandwagoners will get the fuck off. This last decade has done nothing for the fan base but add a bunch of fucking retards.

Maybe a Iowa a bit more than other fanbases because we don't have any professional teams - but I think it more has to do with all of the social media. 10 years ago I think there was one message board. Then it grew to two...Facebook came along, now there's three big Hawkeye boards with a shitload of 'satellite' boards such as this...Twitter - shit just goes bonkers. I tried hard to stay away from these rumors (see earlier in the thread), but when Vegas gets involved and takes down the line, I started shitting my pants a little bit. Vegas typically knows all - this just proves the power of internet rumors.

I'm sure the athletes NEVER intimidate them. No, not ever.

Med and Pharm Students administer the fucking drug tests? I'm sure the athletes NEVER intimidate them. No, not ever. Agreed. The results being a little "too clean" raise my suspicions, but I understand you have to do what you have to do to win ball games. You scapegoat the guy with 2 blown ACLs and the starting RB who had 2 concussions and is probably the number 2 guy anyway. Then it looks like you "cleaned up" the program and everything is fine. With HIPAA you can't announce who failed tests, so I get that, but I highly doubt any program (other than BYU and the service academies) that has a random test a few days after the season is only going to nail a couple of guys. But if that's the official line, that's the official line and I will buy it. Get Coker some reps and hopefully he will be a beast next year and all will be well.

I ain't saying it's a cover up, I just find it REALLY hard to believe that out of 100 dudes only a few would allegedly test positive for 'dro. I would expect the same results if any top tier program dropped random tests, Saban, Dantonio, Brown, et al would never throw their boys under the bus and I commend Ferentz for either (a) actually running a helluva tight ship or (b) getting greasy in the same vein as the big boys, which will be a necessary prerequisite for us to have a competitive program on a regular basis.

First time positive tests result in players placed in counseling.
So therefore, yes there are players that have probably been busted.

Out of 115 guys on the team, 87 have been tested this year (60 some institutionally and 20 some by the NCAA).
The issue on the department is to sure up any athlete being able to get out of a test once he/she has been selected.
I think the use of med/pharm students should be re-evaluated.

I don't know why nobody else has made the connection...
Besides DJK's stupid move, the reason for all the turmoil in the RB position is that Wegher's baby didn't come out caucasian.
