    I am a free speech guy and think people are way oversensitive on this stuff. I can see where he feels the need to apologize, but after that it should be done. It is a common saying. Obviously there are racial undertones to it from back when none of us were alive. It doesn't make him a racist or anything of the sort. Everyone should accept the apology and move on.

    If we all want to live in a non racist society, we all need to stop looking so hard to see it and find it everywhere.

    This guy has done more good for kids of all races than most of us will ever do. (Even grown men...Gibbs).

      • Bubble Games to watch tonight:
        Clemson vs Syracuse - Root for Clemson
        Uconn vs Seton Hall - both on the bubble, Uconn more secure so root for Uconn
        SIU Edwardsville vs Belmont - Root for SIU-E

          For as much as he's maligned on this board simply because he's the CU coach (and hey, that's great with me), McDermott is a good dude. This crap is ridiculous.
          Put me in the category as maligning him just because he’s Creighton’s head coach and Creighton’s attitudes towards Wichita, but do you really know he’s a good dude? Maybe and maybe not.

          • The Creighton situation shouldn’t be a cancel but if liberals are going to cancel, I can’t see a better place for it except for maybe the N. E. Hawks.

                Sorry, but can't find it in myself to root for UConn.

                • It's predictable that Shockernet see's nothing wrong with Creighton's coaches comments considering the demographic of Shocker fans. Red state KS, mostly middle age and older white males. It's interesting how right wing politics keep popping up on Shocker Basketball Forum. I think it was a stupid racist comment. Does that mean the coach is racist? No it doesn't, but of all of the analogies to inspire a team to stick together why would you choose that?

                      Yet here you are popping up politics on the Shocker Basketball Forum.

                        What up G? Don't be offended, but is this attitude one that will engender unity? Seriously.

                        You can't imagine that a white middle-age Kansan might dislike your attitude, and maybe even you, because they think it's totally wrong?

                                Malapropisms aren't intentional.
