  • I'm still trying to sort things out and won't say more until the dust settles. The one thing I will
    say is that a few of you are very quick to point at and condemn a few people without
    knowledge or facts. Some are quick to demand heads should roll. Be patient and hear both
    sides, please.

    • I would recommend listening to this morning's Eye on College Basketball podcast with Gary Parrish and Matt Norlander. It's devoted to the situation. I don't have a link as I caught it on Spotify.

          in my first post about it I said it was hearsay. There is no proof beyond someone claiming to have knowledge of the situation. Ironically, that’s as much proof as ******* has put out.

              A particular person went to multiple entertainment sources trying to peddle the story. 4 that I know of. When one source wouldn’t immediately go all “cancel culture”, they moved to the next. When multiple sources got close and started calling the one player mentioned by the source, well, then it became about how much you want my story. The quality entertainment sources passed.

                  media is different. In a court of law, a reporters notes are considered a recording.

                  • im leaning towards him staying. I think if they were seriously thinking about canning him, they wouldnt be letting him continue with his coaching duties, they would put him on some time of administrative leave

Any bad PR that might come from this can quickly be negated simply by Coach Marshall starting to wear Joe Biden shirts around town and in national interviews. The man (coach) was distressed at the time...and all he really needs to say now is that all of this...ALL OF THIS...was Trump's fault. Boom. End of story.
                      Gregg Marshall is mostly peaceful. Is that what you are trying to say?

                        Taylor has been chiming in on Twitter with tweets from other players. Not much more he can do other than regurgitate what THE ATHLETIC and STADIUM reported. I’m sure no one at WSU is talking.

                          My high school football team, Coach " Wild" Bill Oswald hauled off one day and knocked me off the side of the head. Granted, I had a helmet on but I'll always remember that. I deserved it and it got my attention. Exactly what he was going for. Never occurred to me to cry about being mistreated. In fact, I talk about it that to this day is a huge learning moment.

                          • “Wichita State University acknowledges the allegations within its Men’s Basketball program brought forth by media. The university is in the process of an independent investigation conducted by Tueth Keeney, a St. Louis-based law firm. In the interim, activities of the team will continue as scheduled, and, as it does regularly, the university has reminded all staff, coaches and student-athletes of relevant policies and channels for reporting concerns.”

                              - They go over the articles.
                              - Articles like this go through the legal dept before getting published (to stave off libel concerns)
                              - They don't exhonerate Marshall.
                              - They do talk about the difference in older (50+) coaches and younger coaches.
                              - One recounts a practice he witnessed in another program (which led to the discussion I referenced above).
