That is the story that Stoll is telling police withholding all details of who was involved.
Imagine this scenario with striking parallels: A group of Hawkeye wrestlers are having a party. At 4am, drunk, two of them (Lee and Kemerer) are playing with a hand gun which accidentally goes off and strikes Stoll. TNT find out who was at the party and start a coverup, letting Sam take the fall for the good of the team.

A disgruntled wrestler on the roster leaks this to the media. The whole thing then blows up and TNT are eventually fired.

Even if it is Iowa, this isn’t something we should play around with... in my opinion. Just let the truth come out.

Brands is in a very similar situation to what J was two years ago. He probably doesn't know the whole story, but I guarantee he knows more than we do, or the police do. He is in a position where what is best for the team, might not be best for him personally.

Not even close to the same situation.

J Robinson destroyed evidence and interfered with an active investigation. It has been argued whether his actions were right or wrong.

There hasn't been any evidence that Brands has withheld information or activly interfered with the investigation. Brands probably knows the story now but is just a coach waiting for investigations to be completed before disciplining his athlete(athletes?)

Brands recruited these kids and should be somewhat responsible. There has been to many misshaps in the last 5 years. We can joke about the gun but someone could have seriously been hurt or killed. You have someone like Gross who got in trouble at Iowa left the program and turned his life around. The AD should be having a serious talk with Brands.

I'm not talking about the nature of the alleged crimes. I'm speaking to the moral dilemma the coaches faced...fully cooperate with authorities vs protecting your team.

You mean like Montel Marion's "permanent suspension"?

The poor kid got shot. I figure leave him alone. Although there are several Hawkeye posters who love to trash the gophers scandal every chance they get. But...still he got shot. Let’s be glad it wasn’t worse.
