Top Oklahoma State football player done due to

[redstatebluegirl]

Coach Gundy pictured wearing OAN shirt. I cannot post the link to the oklahoman but this just shows how much racism can hurt a sports program now. Good for Chubba Hubbard for using the power he has to make people listen. You know how much these racists love their football. The loss of Hubbard will cost OSU games no doubt.

Actions have consequences.

1. Let's see if this works

[redstatebluegirl]

4. Thanks!

[ellie]

40. The coach

looks like a meth addict.

[RT Atlanta]

2. Good on that young man ...

Hope more of this teammates will follow his courageous step.

Actions have consequences - Fah-Q OSU.

this one has the story

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/06/15/2000-yard-rusher-done-with-oklahoma-state-over-mike-gundy-wearing-oan-t-shirt/

Chuba Hubbard, a tailback who rushed for more than 2,000 yards last year, has spoken out on Twitter against Gundy after the coach was photographed wearing a One America News T-shirt.

21. Something strange happened

The article is on the homepage of The Oklahoman but if you click on the article you get the 404 error message.

The link worked when I posted it. Do you think this could have a nefarious reason?

[mercuryblues]

43. I think they pulled the article for some reason.

[PJMcK]

47. Yep, I do, too (n/t)

[PJMcK]

48. Now the article is back up

Here's the URL link:

For the moment, this link works.

[blm]

22. OAN pushes Q conspiracy BS and other Trump propaganda.

If that is the coach’s worldview then Fuuuuuuuuuck him.

[ThoughtCriminal]

5. Something even Ole' Miss figured out

Rebel flags and "Dixie" were no longer good for recruiting.

[redstatebluegirl]

8. This coach has been an issue for a while.

I do not know how he recruits Black players.

[bobbieinok]

6. Comments to Yahoo article basically anti Chubba, say he'll be working at Macdonalds

[redstatebluegirl]

9. I doubt that, he is a good player.

13. Chuba Hubbard is one of the nation's top running backs

He’s a legitimate candidate to win the Heisman Trophy next season.

[SoonerPride]

15. He is one of the top running backs in the country

He is not a bench warmer.

This is a big deal.

[Tess49]

62. Maybe he can transfer to OU.

[SoonerPride]

63. Hahahahaha that would be great!

The transfer portal is waiting.

😝

[Tess49]

66. Yes, it is!

[Tipperary]

23. Huh?

Are you serious?

[OriginalGeek]

29. I'm pretty sure RSBG accidentally left out a comma

"I doubt that, He is a good player" in response to BobbieinOK's reporting of negative comments towards the player.

She doesn;t doubt he's a good player, she doubts he ends up at McDonalds. That's the way I read it.

[redstatebluegirl]

30. Thanks I fixed it.

Chubba is an All American I think.

[OriginalGeek]

34. 2000 yards ain't nothing to sneeze at!

[rurallib]

58. He sure is a fantastic player!

good for him! I will be cheering for him wherever he goes

[tenderfoot]

64. LOL

[Stallion]

19. Have You Ever Observed a Fan Base Unite to attack a Player

it can get especially bad if the Head Coach gets on his soap box and leads the attacks. See Mike Leach at Texas Tech

The average college football fan is a blinded homer who just can't handle attacks against "his" university or its popular coach. His school is NEVER wrong-the NCAA or the Player is always out to get "his" team

It can be one of the more troubling aspects of college football-a game I love.

This kid though was probably a leading contender for Big 12 Player of the Year so this will reverberate around the region

[redstatebluegirl]

38. Yes I have. OSU has an interesting fan base.

This will quickly become a racial thing. Their coach is one of them so backing his views is easy. Not all OSU grads for sure, but this is the ag school, lots of rural fans who never set foot on campus to learn, they just come for the games.

[hatrack]

49. Hell, Penn State fans backed up a "man" who let his assistant Rape. Children. For. Decades.

And why? Because Paterno was Duh Football Coach.

There's no limit to Teh Stupid when sports are involved.

[UncleTomsEvilBrother]

7. See how this works

[NoMoreRepugs]

10. I posted years ago that the top 100 AA high school

football and basketball recruits refusing to go to schools that were in states not providing their AA populace unrestricted freedom to vote might change the racial dynamic in this backward country of ours in a hurry.

I still think it’s true.

[Ex Lurker]

17. I don't know about that

I read a lot of sports message boards. A lot of white fans are calling for boycotts, saying they'll walk away, etc. Now, whether they actually do it is another question but I wouldn't put it past them. I know my RW brother in law has turned on a couple of teams he's followed all his life. That's not to say AA recruits shouldn't do it, but I don't know if white sports fans would automatically fall into line.

[Stallion]

42. I Think He's Talking About Top Recruits Boycotting Southern Good Ole Boy Universities

recruiting is the life blood of college football and basketball. Why do the best high school recruits end up in the SEC when there are only a handful of the representatives elected at the state-wide level who politically support their views in the Confederacy

[Ex Lurker]

50. I understand

I'm just saying southern good ole boy fans are quite capable of cutting off their nose to spite their faces. In the same way the talent pool has leverage, so does the audience in terms of ticket sales and TV ratings. Black lives dont matter to most of these people and if confronted with it they may turn their backs. I'm not saying Black athletes shouldn't take a stand. Not at all. Just that you can't lead a horse to water and I think it's optimistic that they'll change the attitudes of white southern football fans overnight or maybe at all.

It will be interesting to see if NASCAR takes a hit or if the fans don't really care that much about the confederzte flag.

[Blue_true]

65. Then let them cut off their nose to spite their face.

Black players that are highly recruited should chose schools that value educating them. Kids should have a plan if they end up hurt so bad that they can no longer play. I can't count the number of times that I read about former LSU, Alabama, Clemson Black former players that didn't make it to the NFL and had no life skills, college did nothing for them. Those players were four and five star players in high school, with NFL dreams, I wish their parents had pushed their education in high school, so they could get into schools like Stanford or Harvard (H doesn't do scholarships, but if a blue chip high school player who qualified academically wanted in, the school would find enough financial aid). Those kids are going to be used as gladiators anyway, why not be at a school that is also educating them for a real economic future?

We need more parents like the parents of Senator Corey Booker (athletic scholarship at Stanford).

68. Let Saban put a lily white team on the field at Bama and lose

56-7 to someone and see what happens.

Players band together and refuse to play for Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, basically the entire SEC and in a few years this shit would stop.

Big10 and PAC12 start winning championships and the SEC and Southern Schools would get it together quick. Bear Bryant integrated Alabama teams because USC went out there and kicked ass.

[malaise]

33. +1,000 n/t

[Blue_true]

61. I agree.

Parents should send their kids to schools that value education and are in states that value every citizen's right to vote.

[SoonerPride]

11. This was the final straw

If you hear the quotes from players it was brutal.

White coach telling black players

“You’re a thug”
“You’re a hood rat”
“I’m gonna send you back to the hood”

Ummmm

Gundy is done. OSU will get a new coach soon.

As an OU fan and alumnus, this doesn’t surprise me in the least. OSU is not exactly the progressive school in the state.

[redstatebluegirl]

12. I agree.

[redstatebluegirl]

16. I ventured out to orangepower.com it was interesting.

[SoonerPride]

20. Oh man.

I can only imagine.

I’d rather not see how ugly it is.

[redstatebluegirl]

26. A bunch of them would settle for a white team.

Not surprising for Stillwater.

[SoonerPride]

28. 🙄 yeah good luck with that.

I wish the racists amongst us would stop breeding and die out

It is so exhausting.

[redstatebluegirl]

36. That it is and I am 65.

[Celerity]

55. they are too busy breeding it up for RW jeebus

[Ferrets are Cool]

14. Gundy is what he has always been

FUCK HIM. I hope this costs him some great players. I wish it would lose him the team.

OSU’s Chuba Hubbard on Mike Gundy’s OAN shirt: Won’t participate with team until things change
By Kelly Hines
Tulsa World

(snip)

Gundy, who was photographed wearing the shirt on an apparent fishing trip to Lake Texoma, referenced OAN during a memorable April media teleconference. The network is widely considered a far-right news source.

“I tell you what’s funny is, I was flipping through stations,” Gundy said. “I found one — I don’t even know if anybody knows about this — it’s called OAN. It’s One America News. And it was so refreshing. They just report the news.

OSU football: Cowboys linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez announces he tested positive for COVID-19

(snip)

Oklahoma State senior linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez announced Sunday on Twitter that he has tested positive for COVID-19. Rodriguez is the second known OSU player to test positive for the virus since football players began returning to campus two weeks ago.

“Upon reporting back for testing and prior to training at OSU, I have tested positive for the Covid 19 virus,” Rodriguez wrote on Twitter. “I have been completely asymptomatic.

“This message goes to urge that even though you may not exhibit symptoms, you may still be a carrier per the guidelines of the CDC. Please continue to use extreme caution when presenting yourself to any group gatherings that exist beyond the confines of your own home and surroundings.”

31. If we could get black players to transfer out

En mass from state schools where there is systematic voter suppression e.g. Georgia or Texas, and announce why, I think it might stop. A couple of 0-11 seasons would do wonders to focus the issue.

[MaryMagdaline]

32. Good! Hit them where it hurts ... college football

[SWBTATTReg]

35. Ironic eh, that rump wants to come here for a campaign rally, eh? A shame, I was born in OK, and ..

hate what has happened to some there, but at least a few in OK (and I suspect far more in the background) are swatting down the racist idiots there and are not tolerating their garbage anymore.

You're absolutely right, actions have consequences.

Be safe and take care!

[redstatebluegirl]

37. We do our best to fight it but it is a challenging.

[SWBTATTReg]

39. Keep at it! I'm in MO, we have issues too, and I'm sure all states have their own devils to ...

deal with. Best of luck to all in our fight against injustice on all fronts, for all.

[cwydro]

41. I'm not a college football fan, so I don't understand your post.

It says "top Oklahoma football player done due to Coach Gundy..."

Is the player "done?" It seem the coach is done. Then you say the "loss of Hubbard." Has he been booted or quit? Having difficulty with the link, so maybe someone can enlighten me.

I hope I'm reading this wrong. Totally clueless on college football, sorry.

[redstatebluegirl]

44. If you look at the article posted below my post it says the player said he was "done".

It sounds like he will go pro rather than play this year because his coach is a moron and wears OAN gear.

[Ex Lurker]

51. He wont turn pro this year

That window has closed
He'll sit out and declare for the draft next year. Which is a big deal because he was a Heisman contender.

[ProfessorGAC]

70. A RB Having One Less Year On The Body...

...probably bodes well in the pros.
Ends up only a year older but 13 games less impact.
That could add a year to his best production which could lead to $ for him.

[cwydro]

57. Thanks, I found another article.

For some reason I couldn't get that link to work.

[Yeehah]

45. Young men like Hubbard give me hope for the future

A strong moral center and the courage to live by his principles.

[BaileyBill]

46. Texas players threatening to sit out, too.

Meanwhile, SMU players and coaches handing out water at protests in Dallas.

[Lonestarblue]

52. And where is the university administration?

This coach needs to at least be reprimanded for promoting conspiracy theories.

[SoonerPride]

56. Statement of university president

Sounds like the coach is going bye bye

[uponit7771]

60. Good !!! #RacismIsExpensive

[SoonerPride]

53. OSU president statement

Sounds like someone is playing Taps for Mike Gundy

[calimary]

67. As someone who's personally offended by crackpot outfits like OAN, I LOVE this!

Mike Gundy thinks OAN is a legitimate "news" outlet?

Shows you who and what he is. And that his taste is straight up his ass.

54. Good on Chubba Hubbard, redstatebluegirl!

Grundy sounds like a brainwashed idiot.
