Creighton coach Greg McDermott says he offered to resign

[Viper]

Jay Williams on ESPN said on Wednesday it's a "thing". I'm guessing he isn't a conservative.

Free advice. Me to you. Don't watch ESPlibN. Don't put any stock in this Fluffy character. Be proud to be American. Embrace Lincoln. Love the Marquette WARRIORS.

Wojo to Creighton?

how bout McDermott to Marquette?

The decision to stop publishing those 6 particular Seuss was made be his heirs that run the estate...made in 2020, while Drumpf was President FWIW.

Cancel culture is now the catch-all term for any criticism of the right wing.

did savior Obama have an issue?

[Viper]

Ah ... the media ... the default of the "I'm a victim" crowd.

His statement, even if he didn't mean it that way (and who knows, except for him) WAS racist. It doesn't mean he is a racist (or that he isn't one, again only he knows).

whatever you say,       PCMU82...after all, you are always right.

If he didn't have an issue with Biden's asinine comments towards him and others I would think he was not offended by Dr. S.

how bout McDermott to Marquette?

Hell no.

[Viper]

Hell no.

ok. Question. Do you know Coach McDermott? Do you know what's in his heart? Are you aware of his outreach? Why, he'll no? Just asking.

The questions will always linger and it will be used against him in recruitment.  It will also probably hurt him in hiring top assistants as well.  Then the university will have to answer a lot of questions about why they hired him.  If he is let got go by Creighton, he'll have options.  He can rebuild his reputation at a smaller institution where the spotlight is less bright or perhaps the NBA as an assistant

Hell no too. Because as I've alluded to in this thread, he's going to have trouble on the recruiting trail. Recruits that were deciding between McDermott and another coach will have an easier time avoiding the guy that wants them on the plantation.

I don't know McDermott and, as far as his coaching, don't think it matters what's in his heart. What's in the public eye is comments that will be used to negatively recruit against him and make it harder for him to do his job at a high level.

We already see what it's like having a coach with one hand tied behind his back tactically, why deliberately hire one who's similarly hamstrung on the recruiting trail?

  As for Shouting racist  instead of engaging contrary ideas   Socrates opined " When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of losers"  We are seeing far too much shouting down and canceling to be healthy

Just fyi, Socrates never said, er, "opined" that.
The Venn diagram of people whining loudest about so-called cancel culture and those who claimed to  boycott the NFL over Colin Kaepernick is pretty much overlapping circles.

[GooooMarquette]

Dude!  Dr. Seuss. Cancel culture etc.etc.

The company is CHOOSING not to publish them anymore...just like Creighton has the right to CHOOSE whether to retain or fire McDermott.

Hah that's an excellent point.

I would tell GD every year when he walked out of the Bradley Center tunnel that Doug ruined the Bulls, so yeah I know him.

Other than that, he is a known cheater. And a clearly has issues with race. I do not need to know someone personally to know a racist, just like having a really good feeling about posters here.

Obama is not the subject, McDermott is. Nice try.

The issue is not with what's in his heart. It's with what he says and does.

And what he said could very well impact recruiting, whether he stays at Creighton or goes elsewhere.

Do you know him?  What's in his heart?

   Care to elaborate?  Repercussions are one thing banning speech you don't agree with is quite another

Is Greg McDermott banned from speaking? Is he going to be arrested by the government for what he says?

What a burn. Ouch.

[naginiF]

Obama is not the subject, McDermott is. Nice try.

So you brought up President Obama, and the insane logic about 'knowing what was in the heart" of another man, then it was presented back to you and you give it the ole "nice try".

Perfect! You're moments away from making #ScoopTakes

[WarriorPride68]

Suspended from all team activities

Creighton handled every aspect of this about as poorly as you could have

[PGsHeroes32]

Nightmare.

Suspend him now???

[wadesworld]

I'd guess more came out.
