LIVE/Open Thread: Blogging the Apocalypse

Well, per numerous sources, a press release on Iowa Football will be released shortly. Given the avalanche of rumors swirling around the internets, I doubt this will be an announcement that any of us are looking forward to reading. The Hampton thread has started to bog down, so I thought a sparkly new thread (as clean as new-driven "snow") would be appropriate as we watch the continuing meltdown of the 2010 season.
At this point, I'm just hoping that we still have enough players left that we don't have to go "ironman" for the bowl game. Your rampant speculation and rumor-mongering begins below.

I may throw up. :(
A lovely story:
One day, long, long ago, there lived a woman who didn't whine, nag or bitch. That would be me....
But that was a long time ago and it was just that one day.
The end
I can't help but think
that the picture on top of this post from Hlas is more than just coincidental to events.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Good Idea Hoya
I am at work but have this up on the computer as I do some reading… Looking forward to getting this thing started to end the rumors. I just want to know at this point.

According to MOrehouse
The only thing the release will confirm is that Hampton is gone.
not exactly what everyone had in mind. So this will continue to build and build and build…
There was another rumor
that KF will announce some suspensions at the end of the week, and maybe a few guys will get booted, too.

Well, you always announce bad news on Friday, right?
It’s a wonder they didn’t announce it right before the Heisman ceremony to really bury it.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Or right before the ceremony like Florida with Muschamp
to TOTALLY OVERSHADOW NEWTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
/Auburn conspiracy theory’d
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
That was pretty shitty timing.
Florida’s story is that the story was already leaking out, so they wanted to go ahead and confirm it. I’m sure it’s true (the leaking, that is), but even still it’s not like waiting an hour would have killed them. Confirming it made a constant story on the ESPN ticker and made it easier for the pundits to talk about it — and take away from the Heisman ceremony.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Yeah
and it lends some “credibility” to the idea that someone at Florida was behind many of the Newton leaks earlier this season.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
When even Fowler spoke of Muschamp and UF...
just after getting some comments from Newton, how serious are we supposed to take the ceremony?
Nile Kinnick would have inspired anyone in the room to focus only on the Heisman, not some hack coach moving from Texas to Florida.

Weak sauce
after all the drama. Guess I’m the fool for buying into the hysteria. BTW, and I say this with nothing by love and respect for Mas Casa, but his assertion that he and Hlas (among many, many others) “have reported nothing on this topic [suspensions/dismissals/drugs/transfers]” is the very definition of “parsing one’s words”.

It's a great workout
Don’t plan on going too far unless you’re already in pretty darn good shape – you’ll feel it the next day regardless.
Work on good form before you go for speed. You want to glide further with minimal effort. If you’re pumping your arms and legs like crazy and not going that fast, you’re doing it wrong. Don’t lean far forward, stay centered over your feet, knees slightly bent.
Hydrate properly… you’re going to sweat a lot, but since it’s cold out you might not notice dehydration as fast. And if you don’t drink a lot of water beforehand, you WILL get cramps. The rule of thumb is if you’re thirsty, it’s already too late.
Brunettes not fighter jets
Excellent points
especially on not planning on going very far. It’s kinda like surfing that way. You’ll get pretty upset at the people who have been doing it for a while when they can last for more than 20 minutes without feeling dead tired.

Excellent advice
As an modestly expreienced XCskier, I say forget the poles your first few times. Just go out on levelish ground to get a feel for how you move and how to fall. At least, that’s what they did to us in junior high. I love XCSkiing myself, just no time.

Ironman might not be a bad thing
Last year we played only 4 D Lineman for almost every minute of every game. This year, our line looked gased by half. As much as our players don’t talk about the hype, I think they started to believe it and got lazy. I think having a few more DJK’s (the player, not the dealer) to play with some damn emotion during games might help. I feel bad for Clayborn, to do the great (and rare) thing of coming back to better himself and his team at the expense of potential financial gains. Hope the younger guys see this as an opportunity to get in on the ground floor of something special. And it snowballs from there.
Battles are won with a hammer, wars are won with a scalpel
I still think Clayborn in a first-rounder...
While he didn’t a Shu-like senior year, just about every color commentator remarked on his athleticism this season. Not that THAT says much about draft stock, but what the hell do I know?
by hawkeye_heartattack on Dec 13, 2010 2:23 PM CST up reply actions
I agree
I think he’s still going to be ok. He will make more in signing bonus than I will make in a decade. I just feel bad that he had to come back for the purpose of contributing to something special, and he ending up with dreck.
Battles are won with a hammer, wars are won with a scalpel
He'll make about the same money
He would have been very late 1st-rd last year, probably similar this year. Damn good money either way.

There's really no point talking about the latter until we know who is -- or isn't -- playing in that game.
Although if we want a new way to castigate the coaching staff, we can pillory them for their recruiting failures against Mizzou, like letting the Hoch brothers leave Iowa or not landing Gabbert.

For now, there's probably not much to do but fiddle while Rome burns.
Once we’re down to cinders, I suppose we can get back to talking about something else.
The good (or bad?) thing is that there’s nothing else to talk about this week — no hoops, no wrestling, nada — so there’s a lot of time to spitball about the football program.

Just got a sneak peek at the press release from an inside source
And the truth is far worse than we can imagine. Ferentz is falling on his sword and retiring. KOK has been tabbed as the new coach. Norm also stepping down due to health reasons, GERG Robinson is his replacement. KOK already has a new 10-year contract that will pay him $2M per year, with a $50M buyout, making him all but untouchable.

I don’t refer to all women as “Baby”. It’s a thought, but I can think of situations where it is inappropriate. So, that’s why I don’t use that particular term in respect of “all women.”

QED. I already pointed out that it is a *behavioral* issue, that will become something else.
Look, this is pointless. Please ignore my posts.

I am of two minds of this
so far the list of players under suspicion is surprisingly one sided. That looks bad in several ways.
But getting your picture taken while doing drugs is stupid and if that is how they were chosen to be the first players to be tested than they got what they deserved.
But if only the black players are being singled out right now that surely looks bad and could lead to some sports chemistry issues.
Right now I am just mostly pissed.
Yeah, I'm sure this is a conversation that the staff has had for hours and hours.
Hopefully they tested the whole team to avoid as much as they can of this scandal. Also because it’s the right thing to do.
by The Final Gun on Dec 13, 2010 4:17 PM CST up reply actions
While I absolutely think that the players...
on DJK’s computer should be tested, perhaps they should test the entire team in order to quell any possible sentiments that are like the ones that Bellanca predicts.
Personally, I didn’t think race had anything to do with this, but it isn’t the worst thing in the world if we make sure it can’t.
And if ten or 11 black players (many of our best players included) were going to be ineligible for the bowl anyway, we might as well risk having about 15 to 25 (I hope it would be that few) overall, because we weren’t going to win this bowl anyway once we had the first ten ineligible.

Other than the structural racism that (in my opinion) typifies much of current drug law, Iowa City culture, and police-procedure. That’s a conversation for another time (or not).
But if your investigation leads towards requiring the investigation of 10 black players, then you’d better investigate the whole team.

I have to say that discussions of race is very generational
In a nutshell Bellanca is not saying anything controversial, at all. I have found it fascinating that the youth of our country really took political correctness of the last couple of decades to heart—they just hate discussing race in blunt, unfiltered ways.
I really suggest everyone go buy RIchard Dyer’s book, “White”.

I often find myself disagreeing with you, but I understand 100% what you are saying. I wasn’t on board with your first post, but I think it just wasn’t worded the way you hoped. But you have made your position very clear since then, and I think it is a great point. I don’t necessarily agree in the sense that I don’t think it will become an issue, but I do understand how you think it might.
"There are few things graven in stone, except that you have to squat or you're a pussy." -Mark Rippetoe
Issues among players don't always leak to the press and blogs
It would not be a stretch to suggest that some players (past, present and future) could take a good hard look at substance abuse issues in the KF era, case by case, and even couple them up with those of the Lickliter era, case by case, and then examine how punishment was meted out by each coach, and even look at the medias and publics reaction to these cases, and arrive at a conclusion that something’s rotten in Denmark.
And understand, it really doesn’t matter if something REALLY IS rotten in Denmark, only that there is some evidence that can support unflattering conclusions to being drawn.
Believe me, it doesn’t matter if this blog doesn’t believe there is any fire (or smoke even), but if the perception develops that being black is a problem when you get in trouble with the Iowa football (or any other) team, that is not the perception you want developing for your athletic department—whether that perception develops among the players themselves or by the student body or the media.
I read Bellanca’s concern about the possible perception, not the reality. I, however, am concerned not only about the perception but the reality as well. I always am. I want these things fair and blind to things like race, background, or even which sport pays for your education, etc. I don’t think raising concerns about fairness and even handedness is problematic in these cases whatsoever.

My theory is
they had something about Hampton already prepared, but they decided to add something about suspensions to help put a stop to all the rumors flying around…
