It's been a tumultuous week for Kirk Ferentz and the Iowa football program. The dean of college football coaches was blindsided one week ago with accusations that his long time strength and conditioning coach made racial insensitive comments, along with his son. This all played out on social media as Ferentz was preparing to welcome his veteran players back to campus in the middle of a pandemic. He discusses an emotional meeting earlier in the week with his team and how he is encouraged by the way his football team has come together.
