I think there's a pretty good argument that JD Spielman is talented enough. Lots and lots of factors must be going into him being 3rd string. 

I think we forget sometimes that every offense is different and that theres a learning curve that prevents video game style plug and play

It was probably Fleck, I wouldn't have invited that guy to a call either.

Probably the Maryland coach because nobody knew his name and were to afraid of that confrontation

I still prefer the B1G over the hot mess of what the Big 12 was/is.  The one problem with the B1G has always been they are about image over winning.  However, if Delaney was still around I wonder how this would have turned out.

Watching the schools claim ignorance and watch warren take all the heat has been a prime example of this

Asking separately from the info in your post, but arent they close to dropping the program altogether prior to shutdowns?

Sure, but Joe Athlete doesn't have access to the advanced technology that some students in a scientific field have access to. Everyone has different access to different things based on their major. 

True. My point though is if they're already giving them this stuff, why not give them a little more if it complies with title IX and all that

Man, can they do that though?  For one, they are supposed to be treated the same as Joe Student, like, they are not supposed to have their own athletic dorms and crap like that.  (unless that has changed)

 

Two, can you make them "more important" than Joe Student?

They already get access to free shoes, clothes, food, academic help, trainers, facilities, etc. over Joe Student, all of which are higher quality than what Joe Student will pay for, so why not?

@krc1995 I could maybe see that if he'd announced that he was retiring from football, but that's not the case here.

Assuming you know what's going on in someone's head is a dangerous game

This is gaining traction and isn't gonna end well for Iowa

Are you seriously saying that her method of enforcing the curfew is worse than what happened to the peaceful protesters?

 

Put aside your bias and think about this. What should free citizens in a democracy have the right to do?

Why are you assuming I'm biased in this post?

I never claimed Trump did the right thing. I'm just sick of politicians trying to show how less bad they are at their jobs by showing how they're not as bad as another politician. They're all failing and all lack leadership, not just Trump (who, I agree, is diplomatically failing hard). 

I don't have an answer, because the peaceful protests are a right that the country was founded on, and it promotes free thinking along with opportunities to grow and learn to create an even better place to live (such as continuing the fight to end racism).

My issue is in the hypocrisy of how politicians are handling the current issues and how it doesn't help anyone but the politicians (this goes for both parties). I live in Iowa, who has a curfew also but people were still protesting late last night in Urbandale without any repercussions. Luckily, as I said, they were just peacefully protesting by marching, which I'm all for, but then what's the point of the curfew?

Mayor of Washington DC:

 

She would have a point if she was actually enforcing the curfew right now (9:25 ct as I post this), but she's not.

I've always felt the police should be held to a higher standard of obeying the law, compared to the rest of the citizenry.   When in reality they're held to a much lower standard.

It's like watching your dentist walk into the room with a giant dip in his mouth

Just saw a friend's snapchat story here in Des Moines showing a target that boarded itself up. Don't know which specific location it was or if it was said they're all doing that due to current circumstances. For all I know this one could've been already shutting down for good before all of this. Just relaying what I saw

My assumption was a) what you're saying and b) try to sell a higher % of their product right now before s#!t really hits the fan.

 

But I think they are endangering the public and making things worse by making this statement. 

 

If we all have to get by on 15% less meat that's really not a big deal. If 10% of us hoard 40% of the meat because someone causes a panic, that's a bigger deal.

This is more about the producers rather than consumers. Iowa pig farmers are hurting bad right now
