University of Iowa president Bruce Harreld said he is unsure whether the Hawkeyes will continue their rivalry game against Iowa State after members of their band said they were physically assaulted and sexually harassed by Cyclones fans earlier this month.
"I'm not convinced at all that we should play this game again—here or there or anywhere—unless we can protect our fans, our band, and of course our athletes," Harreld told Marissa Payne of the Daily Iowan.
Iowa band members said they were accosted by unruly Iowa State fans following the Hawkeyes' 18-17 win in Ames on Sept.
