Being stuck in a cornfield in the middle of nowhere with only the local media watching over has helped Ferentz survive.

Way back in Fall of 2007, a student claimed that she was raped by Iowa football players. Ferentz and the AD talked the girl out of going to the authorities and said they would handle it. You can guess how they handled it.

In 2011, 13 Iowa football players ended up hospitalized after 'strenuous' workouts. Some serious red flags there and I'm surprised there wasn't more blowback or investigating done. My "steroids" radar went off at that time. Doyle was the S&C coach then.

Recently Doyle took the fall for some shit going on and I just wonder how long it will be before the media turns their eyes towards Ferentz?

And for the record, Iowa is not alone. A great many other programs have lots of skeletons in their proverbial closet.
