University of Iowa Athletic Director Gary Barta says “inappropriate actions” were directed towards Hawkeye Marching Band students and staff at Saturday’s Iowa-Iowa State game in Ames.
In a statement released Monday afternoon, Barta said that both UI and ISU administrations are investigating the allegations. Barta said, “Our main priority is the safety of all Iowa students, staff, and coaches when attending events away from Iowa City.”
There has been no official explanation on what those inappropriate actions were, but band director Eric Bush told ESPN that they were “saddened and shook up by the stuff that happened.”
