Jok not missing games

[roundball]

I think you're missing the change in culture going on with social media and ginned up outrage. I guarantee you the second a school makes an inconsistent application of suspension policy in a sex or violence against women case and it looks like it's because of the player's skills, ****'s going down...and it's not the old days that a university can just shut up and ride it out.

So how do you explain Penn State?

 

[HFCS]

Meh big deal this is big time college sports. The self righteous crowd can pound sand. And the next moment ISU does something like this will not be the first time.

It would be the first time a Hoiberg player was arrested without getting a suspension. I wouldn't care if all those idiots hadn't gone off about doing things the right and wrong way.

 

[Carsalesrgood]

Can not believe if true, really looks bad on Iowa Program

 

[cayin]

Doing it the right way. Yeah, whatever. Oh how typical. Arrogant/ignorant and jealous hawk fans call out Hoiberg for recruiting "thugs" while at the same time tout they are "doing it the right way". Yet they recruit a convicted felon and fail to suspend Jok for any games. On top of that their coach has made an an angry scene on the sidelines several times and been thrown out of games.

 

[CyCloned]

I don't see a big problem with it. The kid spent 4 days in jail, which is a long time, and pretty embarrassing for both him and the program. Plus he is already a laughing stock for being stupid enough to get caught for the same safety violation on a moped twice, once under a suspended license. If that isn't enough to get his act together, being suspended for two non-conference games is not going to help either.

 

[CarlHungus]

But I thought they were the ones that always said we had a bunch of "thugs"?

 

[GTO]

Just heard Iowa Hawkeyes Peter Jok is not being suspended from any games for DUI. Really?

This must be some sort of Jok.

Awful joke. But because of the gif, I still laughed. I approve.

 

[twocoach]

Well this should shut any Hawk fan up when they try to say ISU runs a rogue program....Thomas and Nader are getting deserved suspensions.

A "whopping" two games. Not exactly a big message delivered.

3 actually...3>0 and Jok got an OWI AND broke his probation for driving without a license

How many years do KU players get suspended for with alcohol incidents?

The question is suspension vs no suspension...but troll gone troll.

 

[isumellie]

Twocoach let me do some simple math for you 2 > 0.

 

[cyhiphopp]

I'd understand if he was good and you needed him to contribute but it makes no sense with him. I guess his 4 days in jail was his punishment from Fran and the court system

Sadly they are hoping he van be a 10 pt per game guy for them. We'll see how that works out.

Needs one of these:

 

[Cyclonick182]

Wait wait wait.... you mean to tell me a crime was committed in Iowa City by a UofI athlete and nothing was done by the coaching staff?

 

[HFCS]

He wasn't even a 1 point per game guy in big ten play.

Actually I would argue it could cost both the team and the players quite a bit. We are all ready down McKay, and now we are down Thomas and Nader. We play Georgia State while they are suspended, which aint no walk in the park. Not to mention both Thomas and Nader are at positions with a lot of competition, so they will be sitting for two games while the other players have an opportunity to prove themselves. So, yeah, 2 regular season games is plenty...and its a hell of a lot more than zero.

Yeah, pretty much.

Don't worry about arguing with twotroll. He roots for KU, who's never been accused of doing things the "right way".

 

[Cyclonick182]

Don't worry about arguing with twotroll. He roots for KU, who's never been accused of doing things the "write way".

Sure they do. They write the players checks, they write the big 12 refs checks.....
