Good luck finding a campus free of any form of racism.

What an idiot.

There are morons and racists at all campuses.

The fraternity has already been kicked off campus.

You're pretty stupid to de-commit because of a 10-second video of some drunk 20 year olds chanting some dumb stuff on a private bus.

Unless, the player was planning on pledging that frat.

So an 18-yr-old black kid, with minimal life experience, who's probably leaving home for the first time, was put off by a video of a bunch of white kids chanting hang a n*****?

I can see why he might be a little uncomfortable with that situation. Culture shock.

Yeah, I'm not sure what the big shock is here.

He apparently was already having second thoughts and this video just made him firm up his decision.

And he's just opening up his recruitment; he's not advocating the place to be burned to the ground.

Everyone calling the kid a dumbass, the kid has scholarship offers from 20+ schools. He has to narrow them down somehow.

I knew a guy who said during his commitment, that he eliminated schools because the coach couldnt make him laugh, they didnt serve him pizza, or even because during his visit he saw 2 guys holding hands. And the school he eventuallly chose, it was chosen because he saw a squirrel fricking a cat in the tree and it was the coolest thing ever

Also, no shock that there is people actually defending the fraternity

If this happens at all SEC/BIG12 Schools will there be a trickle down effect?

I honestly sometimes do not understand how some players could play for some of the more openly known socially backwards crowds. I guess a $250k scholarship and a ticket to the NFL will solve that

Maybe his parents were fearful for him or didn't want him to play in an environment like that. Can't blame him or his parents.

He seems talented enough so it should pan out for him

FWIW, he didn't actually say his de-commitment was because of the video (at least, not to my knowledge).

I mean I go to TCU and have never seen or heard anything resembling racism. You won't see anything like the OU thing at those three schools.

I don't agree with their stance, but they are a private university.

I guess stoops plan to march with players didnt work. He never cared about the cause, only about the backlash it could cause in his recruiting.


Stoops cares about all his players, and they respect the hell out of him. Idiotic statement.

Good luck finding a University that makes no stupid remarks. And that goes for all races.
