This week, we learned that Iowa – in more ways than one – is still living in the '80s.

While every other program across the country devices a strategy to best market their players with the NCAA's upcoming name, image and likeness changes, Iowa's players were not allowed to even use social media.

This makes sense when you consider that Iowa's offense hasn't evolved in 30 years, so why would their social media policy? But don't worry! After receiving a deserved barrage of ridicule online, Iowa has offered a remedy to the situation.

In a move that seems like a troll attempt but is actually Iowa's very real response to the concerns, Hawkeye players will now be allowed *one* pre-approved Tweet per month, according to The Athletic, which would be similar to a parenting strategy that increased a child's permissible television consumption to five minutes a month from zero.

Iowa did release a statement to The Athletic later, saying "that was the original agreement last week, players are currently on twitter and do not have restrictions." However, the fact that they are no longer enforcing this policy doesn't really change the fact that they thought it was the correct response in the first place.

This is one of just many changes Iowa has made of late, presumably believing in earnest that it is evolving with the times. Just last year, the program made the extremely progressive move of easing restrictions on hats, earrings and hoodies in the football building.

It's a miracle they're able to field a full team of scholarship players every year.
