Yep, that’s where it’s headed, I’ve been unfriended by people not because I said anything, but merely because they noticed I never liked any of their posts.

The end of the Iowa football program. I was reading this morning that Ferentz has been there twenty years. All of a sudden the program is hit with charges of racism?

If I were an Iowas fan in particular - I am a college football fan in general - I would say 'Adios!'

First collegiate domino to fall. Other programs will follow suit quickly.

I hope they don’t get even one thousand fans.

We really need to stop paying these idiots obscene amounts of money. They obviously hate mainstream America, so why should we pay them a dime ?

All sports scholarships should be banned, as should race-norming and preferential admission.

I support any team that opposes the Hawkeyes. Feel free to “take a knee”, SJWs.

Every college team is going to be like this in the fall. What a train wreck. I guess I’ll skip this season.

I figure that a letter from the ALUMNI ASSN. will put an SUDDEN END to such FOOLISHNESS.
(IOWA & all other school athletics DEPEND ON alumni $$$$$$$$ support to give most scholarships.)

Yours, TMN78247

This is how many of millennial age and younger think. These idiots want those that disagree with them to disappear.

I’m glad at least one other person thinks like me on this subject.

I’m waiting for some state board of regents to announce that effective next year all of the state funded universities will no longer have athletic programs since they no longer serve their original purpose but instead have become sources of political controversy. The schools will return to their original roots of being institutes of higher learning and not farm teams for the NBA and NFL.

The alums would scream bloody murder but this simply can’t go on.

Even if the Gators are projected to be good this year, I have very little enthusiasm right now for the season.

College Football isn’t what it was. All the great traditions are gone. Just another corporate playground now.

Would someone tell the residents on the west side that black lives matter? They won’t stop shooting each other.

Do you know what’s great?

I don’t HAVE to watch ANY sports and I will survive just fine.

In my case it’s easy, I hate sports in general. No need for me to support any of them.

It will be like the Soviet Union where they will take you in because you hadn’t denounced anybody.
