2023-24 Razorback basketball

I wouldn't trust a word Jacob Davis writes. He has no "source." He writes for that SI rag.

It's locked in my mind that there was a story of someone on the team getting into altercation last season and then word came out that a player on another team used a gay slur toward one of our players. I can't remember who of course (Devo) but yes it's in there somewhere. I was thinking @Mizzou but maybe it was against Auburn.

It wasn't just Black running his cum dumpster last season either...over half the team was talking shit every time the camera was on them.

Back to the gay slur stuff...these are kids. When I was a kid we used derogatory terms that would apparently be wrong to use today but we didn't really think some retarded fuck was actually a gay. It just made us feel better about ourselves and afterall isn't that what life is all about?

[jethro]

Damn, are you that scared to just type the word?

Well, kinda bending a rule and sending from work.  That word might flag to be looked at.  Don't need the hassle.

[DirkPiggler]

It sounds exactly like something he would say he knew.  Check your PMs.

He's Bluffing. 

If he's the one who posted it I give it even less credence than before.

All these kids played AAU ball together and stay in contact through texts and everything else.  If a guy was gay or anything else, half the kids in college basketball will know about it tomorrow.

there are probably other gay players

What are the chances we have three or more gay guys on a D1 basketball team? I'd say slim to none.

[Lurk]

That would reopen UCLA....

Gee, thanks. I know what the curse is going to do now. Beard to Louisville, muss to UCLA.

Exactly what I was thinking.  Gays are like 5% of the population, yet 25% to 33% of our men's team? 

I'd be shocked if at least one of them doesn't turn out to be gay.  I'd be even more shocked if 3-4 of them were. You would almost have to be actively recruiting that specific demographic to end up with that many.

Well, that's kind of how it works.  Word gets out that we are a friendly place for that sort of thing and guys hit the portal looking to come here.  I could even see a coach thinking that openness and tolerance was a recruiting advantage.

Been saying that the last two days

[Elblancodiablo]

I really believe we are going to find out that is exactly what happened. You don't get that many by accident.

Possibly, but if that was the case wouldn't we have seen an exodus of straight players who were grossed out by that shit?  We haven't lost anyone in the last year who wasn't either a fairly high draft pick or wasn't going to play much if any.

If your head coach was a left wing wacko, yep. Didn't somebody post the other day that our coach was extremely liberal, like cali liberal

Good grief. Please keep your political dumbassedness in the political thread.

NSJ definitely had some gay tendencies. Weren't there some on the team last year that painted their nails?

Maybe.  I mean I don't know why people have left, do you?  One reason it is out is because allegedly players are texting recruits about it and telling them not to come here.  So it probably bothers some of them.  But I imagine that others just keep quiet about it for fear of being branded a bigot and others just don't think that much about it.  Kids are different now.  I mean from the team point of view, it isn't so much that they are gay, but that it is is allegedly a gay love triangle within the team that is messing up team chemistry.

Pinion and Devo, the fingernail painters, were both on the team last year. So, yes. Congrats Sherlock. You have cracked the case.
