I would hope he talked to Gant or TSet. TSet is as solid of a dude I've ever met. Enjoyed my time working with him in Athens. I believe he is still the team Chaplin.
Are you implying that this doesn't happen to white/Asian/Hispanic/other students?
I may seem wrong to alot of people. But sometimes talking with no solution only causes people to lose interest in talking. The whole fight for racism to put it in terms that many may understand. Imagine working a job and having a valid complaint at work and nothing happens but any complaint against you ends with you reprimanded.
I guess I'm not following you first point. There are people there to talk to. POC who have very honorable and high positions within the program and I can personally attest are top notch men who I whole heartedly trust and would do anything for. To your second point, yeah I totally get that. Being at the bottom of the totem pole most of my life in the work force, It can definitely be frustrating.
I thought the SEC had a policy that intra-conference transferS had a mandatory one year no-play deal, regardless of what the NCAA says.
You can love your country and criticize it. Our society disgusts me.
I get what youre saying. I believe there's people to talk to about things but talking in certain aspects probably means talking and finding a solution. They tie hand in hand in most prints of this type of discussion. But Im glad UGA will allow him to play. Kirby really hasnt held people back for him so that's good just on the NCAA now and its only 4 days from gameday.
Lane Kiffin... working hard to fight racism.... as coach of... the “Rebels”
read that again...
Dang they hit back pretty hard there. Either he consents to it or he’s blowing smoke.
“We cannot comment on student-athlete eligibility matters due to federal privacy laws, but we would be happy to share our full response to Otis Reese’s waiver request, if he provides a signed release allowing us to do so,” The statement said. “UGA disputes any suggestion that it maintains an unsafe, unsupportive, or racially insensitive environment.”
This makes me think UGA blocked nothing.
Tom Mars can EAD.
I assume by teammate being called the N word he is talking about Justin Fields(no new instance) and yes it has appeared in the past that the campus Police go after players, and needs to elaborate on the mocking of slavery. If someone wanted to downplay slavery they wouldn't imitate whipping. Maybe it was part of a play or sketch denouncing slavery. If there are racial instances they need to be addressed but why wasn't this mentioned at the initial transfer. Why is it brought up when eligibility is on hold?
