The old "declare yourself gay to boost your NFL draft stock" trick ain't fooling Cooper
I didn't realize he was SEC defensive player of the year. I read he was projected as a mid round selection. He probably would have been on the cover of SI anyway.
Keep in mind this was 2003. This was a mere five years after two men had kidnapped a 21-year-old college student named Matthew Shepard in nearby Wyoming, tied him to a fence post and bludgeoned him with such violence that the passing bicyclist who found the fatally beaten young gay man there at first mistook him for a scarecrow.And this was the locker room, of all places. Where we wash off the blood and sweat after we crush Kansas State and Texas Tech, and where we talk about girls, and where we call a gay man what he really is. Right?
In this new age, it's nice that the Omaha World-Herald is there to remind everyone that above all else, Nebraska football rules.QuoteKeep in mind this was 2003.

in the end, EMAW will always win.

he is handling this perfectly. this combine press conference is impressive.
Did the mods delete everything in here? What's going on?
he should've waited til after the draft imo
The cake thing was weird. I'm sorry.

I saw people tweeting about the kiss and I thought that was a pretty cool moment, then I watched the video and was like Anyone see Case McCoys tweet about the situation? What an unconfident loser.
Something like "ESPN are you serious? Why are you showing this?"
