Can't find the Kirk racist lawsuit thread, has the U of I successfully played the long game and everyone forgot about this.
Iowa fans forgot about it the day it came out. To me, this is one of those things, even after there’s a settlement or this lawsuit is closed, it won’t ever be forgotten about and the Ferentz’s will forever be racist.
I think Kirk is close to retirement and is abiding by what he’s being told to appease those in IC, but, unfortunately, you don’t go 60+ years being a racist white man and change overnight.
Aside from the racism allegations, I also think kirk’s to the point in his career (near retirement), where he’s going to do and say almost whatever he wants because he knows his buyout is astronomical and he knows Barta isn’t going to fire him.
