Statement on Outback-Gate

The IPRA learned earlier today of the allegations against our Deputy Commissioner and Chief Integrity Officer, Ken Farbock. The International Power Rankings Alliance takes these accusations very seriously and has acted promptly to address any concerns from our members, the broader journalistic community, and the public.

Earlier today, our Board of Commissioners convened an emergency session and appointed a special investigator to thoroughly examine the claims levied against Mr. Farbock. Following an extensive and exhaustive eight-hour investigation, it has been determined that there is currently no substantiated evidence warranting disciplinary action against Mr. Farbock.

We sincerely thank the investigating officer, former Senior Commissioner and Chief Integrity Officer, Ken Farbock Sr., for his diligent and transparent efforts in conducting this review, which reflects the IPRA’s commitment to fairness, accountability, and integrity.

The IPRA strongly rejects the unverified reporting by the Heed the Call Enquirer and calls on the publication to issue a formal retraction. We remain steadfast in our mission to uphold ethical standards within the professional ranking of NFL teams and to ensure that our members and officers are treated justly and respectfully.

We appreciate the continued trust and attention of our community and reaffirm our commitment to transparency, professionalism, and the highest standards of conduct in all IPRA affairs.
