Billthy Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 that comment he made on our local news, was pathetic. I would kick that guys ass in the dark if he said something like that to the national news how badly someone sucked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original_ Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 He doesn't deserve it.. It is a coache's responsibility to stand by his players. He simply said that he would stand by his players. THAT IS WHAT A COACH IS SUPPOSED TO DO. As for his comments regarding the girl's ability, they are true. The truth may hurt, but brutal honesty is not a reason to suspend a coach. A deserving guy was not awarded a scholarship just so the University could be a trailblazer. If I was a coach, I would want the best players possible, not someone that the administration shoved down my throat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.... Posted February 19, 2004 Author Share Posted February 19, 2004 So you make this forum thread and give no info? I mean I know what has happened at Colorado, but I do not know what the coach said. Well, there has been a previous thread regarding some of the things Barnett has said in the past. This has been a culmination of what's been going on. The post was made as the news conference to put the coach on administrative leave was going on. No news sources as of yet. It's now been posted.

It is being implied that he thinks that since she actually sucked and should have never been on the team in the first place that this was something that could have been avoided had she just not insisted on trying to play with the 'boys'. He was basically insinuating that she was asking for it, at elast that is my understanding of what people are ****ed off about - not wheteher or not I think that is what he meant.

Peter Griffin Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 Frankly, I think it sucks if she really did get raped, that would be a horrific thing to go through. On the other hand, I thought his comments about, not only is she a girl, she was horrible, were hilarious. It's not his fault if she sucked, he was just stating the facts.

Callaway Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 (edited) He's responsible for representing the University of Colorado. Which I'm sure like other universities is concerned about it's Public Image Reputation Equal rights / Discrimination Ole' Garry just showed to everyone how an Athletic program can break a University just as quickly as it can build one. Shame the University of Colorado still has to pay his salary.... Btw...currently investigating the 6th RAPE CASE at CoU. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/foot...n.ap/index.html Edited February 20, 2004 by Callaway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mardi Gras is where you drink, have wild sex with people you don?t even know, women walk by and flash you ? you feel like a football recruit at the University of Colorado. "Do you know why University of Colorado football players go into a huddle? So they can get their stories straight. "Give you an idea how bad it is, today, the Taliban denounced the University of Colorado for their treatment of women." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
