Crime in College Football

[dubsker]

I was kinda shocked Iowa only had 18.

LOL, just wait till Iowa fan tries to bring up LP. We will quickly be able to remind them of all the legal troubles during the Ferentz era where they routinely go 7-5.

Iowa released a statement on this. I know Iowa City cops dont just let them slide on public intox and minor stuff like some school towns do. I do think it's cr@p to lump all crimes together, and I think we could all agree drinking pry goes up in the middle of winter in mid-west schools and communities. One example of how the numbers could be scewed just from one state to another on "serious" crimes, Iowa you get caught with a used pipe or a roach, you go to jail and car goes to impound, MN anything under an oz is a ticket and your on your way. I am not condoning using any drugs, simply pointing out even from state to state you could be charged with a more serious crime, even if the exact same crime.

Do you really think Lincoln cops let the players off easy?

Also, screw this petty crime bs and this article. They should get back to me when you include violent/sexual crimes only, so people really know what team to beware of. As someone already stated, the fact that they included literally everything (including failure to pay parking tickets? actually, did they, a friend close to this said they did but I cannot confirm by myself, and that partly doesn't make sense to me)makes it really hard to glean anything from this article other than ol' Dave Wannstedt ran his program like the NFL.

Also, 4/120 is not bad. I promise you that you could find more people with criminal records sitting in a huge freshman lecture class. Anyway, I really wish they would do one of these with more serious crimes and compare it with the collegiate average.
