I know people don’t want to make the connection, but being defiant and unapologetic in the face of clearly doing some shit that is wrong is a direct result of the last decade of political climate.
@znewman2187 Completely understand and appreciate you making the most local choice. I just can't get myself to invest without it being kc. My friend moved to Minneapolis so I tried to be a wolves fan for a hot minute.
@znewman2187 I have zero nba affiliation. I just appreciate great players. I've been a Bron stan for a long time simply to fight the jordan will never be touched people. I also appreciate SGA much more than the majority of basketball fans.
@crkleman@DerekYoungKSO Cody Campbell has said they obligated to pay him the agreed 5m now that he's deemed eligible. You think they're doing all this to not play him?
Great post, and this is part is absolutely spot on!
“There is a difference between defending the person and defending the mistake.
Texas Tech is in an impossible spot. Deep down, they may have hoped the final ruling would remove the decision from their hands. Exhaust every option, support the player, let the process play out, and if he is ruled ineligible, accept it. That is the cleanest outcome for a program trying to balance loyalty, discipline, public pressure, and competitive integrity.”
@royalsclubhouse It's a calculated risk either way. Had the A's been good this year and/or next they could have built the fanbase more. The novelty of a new ballpark would have still been there.
Statement from Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark:
“The ramifications of today’s ruling are significant and could have broad impacts across college athletics, creating great concern amongst our membership. I’ve been consulting with our key stakeholders and have scheduled meetings with our Conference ADs and Executive Board this week. We are also in touch with Charlie Baker and anticipate the NCAA to appeal the order in the next 24-48 hours. We will continue to monitor and evaluate the situation.”
