Remember "White" helmet - all white people are racist, and nobody else could possibly be.

I, for one, will boo this Williams kid every time he touches the floor! (assuming what we all think happened is what really happened)

So you admit that Matt Williams never complained about his not playing because he was white and tubbs was black? You just assume that's what happened because this is the world we live in?

Get real.

Some of you are creating some ridiculous theories.

First, Tubbs broke the rules. Here, in some form or fashion. And probably at OU. Some of you say, but, but, but...it happens everywhere. Do you know that, or do you just assume that? Not everyone cheats. SMU fans just like to say everyone cheats because it makes us feel better about losing.

Again, I'm willing to bet there's a lot more to this than detergent and cheeseburgers. Just don't see him getting fired over those two things. I bet there's a pattern that has shown up with JT over the past four years.

I am sure he will be booed - right up to the point he drains several 3's in a row and then we'll all be high fiving each other......

I said I'd boo when he touches the floor.... I didn't say I'd boo the entire time he was there :wink:

That is an insightful statement containing some truth.

Look, Rick Majerus and Utah got investigated because he bought a few players breakfast (they probably got mad because he kept eating off their plates), and he got a wrist slap for it from the NCAA. He was in disbelief. If he can do it and he's been a head coach of a major program for how long? These things happen. Let's see Michigan an institution that shouldn't have to cheat got hammered for basketball cheating. Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, Cincinnati, St. Boneventure, OU, are a few names that have come up in recent years on the NCAA radar. Don't tell me that cheating is not rampant in college basketball recruiting. The AAU and shoe sponsors makes it common place. When you have to wear NIKE to recruit player A and Rebok to recruit player B, get the picture.
