@HitemWreckem @GoBearcatsFB It’s a sacred sin, yet you are OK with keeping this guy on your team and not cutting him loose? 🤡

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@BrennanBaxt @dfwticket Pure hyperbole. You have no way of knowing this. Also google how Iowa State handled their QB who gambled. What a moronic statement.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@BrennanBaxt Requesting to reinstate a player who bet on his football team (including against his team) 40 times is objectively bad. He broke a cardinal rule and crossed a line that shall not be crossed.

@MATTDUNN_radio @TexasTechFB Pure hyperbole. You have no way of knowing this.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@TechAthletics You know you are in the wrong when you need to post a 22 minute video trying to defend yourself. He broke a cardinal rule. End of story.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@JacksonBig12 This insane ruling will be appealed. This saga is far from over.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@SamSung80085 @DanWetzel @espn Are you kidding me? Gambling on your own team is about as serious as it gets.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@SamSung80085 @DanWetzel @espn The NCAA tries to do their job by correctly ruling him ineligible. Unfortunately, they got an insane judicial ruling that will get appealed. This saga is not over and Tech is busy burning bridges.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@SamSung80085 @DanWetzel @espn Like you, I don’t want these issues to continue. This involves, at a minimum, 1.) allowing the NCAA Enforcement to do their job and 2.) member schools doing the right thing and taking on players that bet on their own team 40 times.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@GamblinGauchos I have an issue with Texas Tech filing an appeal when he was ruled ineligible. They could have said he crossed a bright line and cut him loose right there, but they chose to fight it.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@JacobHarrisSBI This is a false choice. He could have a support system whether or not he ever steps on the football field again. This line of thinking is not hard to comprehend.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@kirbyhocutt You say you believe in integrity yet your actions are the complete opposite of that.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@TechAthletics @TexasTechFB Texas Tech is part of the problem. They could have cut him loose when they found out his crossed a bright line. But they didn’t and here we are.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@elonmusk Who is “they”?

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@GrageDustin We all know Kirk is a scumbag. He only represents himself not a broader group of people. “These people want us dead” is disingenuous and divisive.

@CharlieFreyre I can reasonably disagree that the bold move made sense at the time. Paul Chryst deserved better. Be careful firing winning coaches.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@NickLewis37 Weird. Almost like winning a championship is very difficult.

[Charlie Benson @chaben34]

@BuckyRecruiting I think he’s coaching for his job given the three previous poor years. If he’s bad again in year 4, what do you do?
