His draft stock won't be affected one bit, but I doubt the Harrison Twins are coming out either way. They're tweeners as guards with no real defined NBA role projections.

We all know that it wasn't a serious racial remark. Now, if he had called him a cracker then we would have problems. Have they tested harrison for color-blindness? He did throw a few passes directly to Wisconsin players.

That player is just low class ghetto, like most basketball players these days (college and pro). They really have to stop scooping them up from the hood, and if they do, give em a crash course in etiquette. If I used the word N word on this forum, how fast would I get banned?


Kentucky U should take immediate disciplinary action

I am sure this won't go over well. However, it was a black player saying "**** that ******" about a white player. Will it hurt his draft stock? Will he be forced to undergo counseling? Will the school suspend him?
If he had been white; he would be gone. In this case even the media are making excuses.

I'm as white as ghost. Black people have called me "*****" before. It's not uncommon in the hood.

Right, but college sports, is not "the hood". These kids need to learn how to speak in civilized society.

Yup, they keep blaming it on "immaturity". How come the OKC frat boys didn't get the same break?
