Huh, I wonder why we’re operating at a deficit. Are we confident our donors aren’t giant morons?

P. sure Gene got audited multiple times and nailed for wasteful spending at Iowa.
Didn’t he say a few weeks ago the fb practice facility and Olympic training facility would be done in about 2 years? Lol
Taylor was audited once and he wasn't busted for wasteful spending. He was in charge of oversight of the athletic department's IT division. The man who ran the IT division didn't follow best practices which led to 5 ipads not getting returned by the football team. One IT employee making personal purchases in a company card, which was paid back, and the head of IT using one of his employee's card when his was close to the max.
The reason anyone even knows anything about that audit, which was otherwise unremarkable, is that the woman Gene replaced sued Iowa Athletics because Gary Barta paid Gene $70,000 more than he did her and her attorney argued that Gene did the same job, for more money, but worse than she did.
He most definitely didn't say that entire project would be done in two years. From what I understand the football facility may be done in two years, apparently the money has been raised for that. That project has to be done before the other stuff so the football program won't have a lag in having an available facility. There is almost no way that both of those facilities can be done in two years, unless the football facility starts like tomorrow, which it won't until either the Shamrock Zone is done or the 2021 season is complete.
