He's all like, "Hey, I'll just weat this polo or some junk under my same colored sport coat on ESPN.  Looks good imo."  And society is all, "No, it looks like crap you clown."

He definitely shouldn't have said nigga/n-word but telling someone to stop saying nigga/n-word is much different than calling someone a nigga/n-word. This isn't a fireable offense and the other TCU players defending him is proof of this. Not that white dude who played for him years ago, but the actual players on the roster now, arguing with their teammate about it.
Title: Re: Gary Patterson

I think it was pretty clear what happened before his teammate chimed in but it's still not a good look. I think this is pretty similar to what a Clemson assistant got accused of a while back

Still doesn’t really seem the same cause Patterson was apparently responding to a question asking about what specifically the kid did to upset him.

Seems like he could’ve easily just said n-word instead, but the more I watch Last Chance U the more I understand why some people in the program might slip into that even though it really should be out of bounds.

This bugs the eff outta me, and I've spoken about it a lot. Just because Snyder is old and white doesn't mean he did crap like this. Making being racially insensitive something everyone does/did really minimizes the effect when it actually does happen. I know it isn't intentional, but it unnecessarily demonizes people and trivializes the need for people know this behavior isn't normal.
Title: Re: Gary Patterson

Using the word n-word has been unacceptable literally the entire time LHC Bill Snyder has been alive. I'd like to think that the man was civilized enough to never use that word. I really hope y'all don't think this is some impossible task.
Title: Re: Gary Patterson

i can't imagine snyder saying "n-word" but i also can't imagine him caring that his players said "nigga" in a private setting.

i respect patterson quite a bit for trying to police the use of that word on his team, and the more so within the dynamic of a white coach/black player.

oth, the thing where he's making fun of the player's girlfriend or whatever he was doing reads as a stereotype of the absolutely worst type of boundary overstepping coach and transitioning from the one to the other does make me question his motives in the way rusty mentions.

Snyder would absolutely care about a player saying nigga during team meetings. I myself use the word nigga and I would have a problem with someone using it in a meeting that I'm running.

Let's not assign that to anyone, until it's been proven that they've done it. Also worth noting that the no dreads showing was during the game only, dudes weren't walking around Vanier with those head covers on. Also no hats or earrings isn't race related at all, I grew up in western kansas and white boys loved nothing more than dirty baseball caps. White boys also wear earrings. I guarantee you Harry Trotter has at least one ear pierced.

he didn't have a problem with players bouncing bricks off of puppies, so i think i'm on pretty firm ground in assuming he didn't give a crap about anything that was out of the public eye.

That’s not a race thing at all imo. Was it even dreads only or simply long hair sticking out the back? I have no problem with a coach requiring professional conduct/conformity thing by these means. Tbh, it’s really beneficial, and it’s kind of a shame that this type of thing is going by the wayside.

The team should come first before individualism. I say this as a player who was high on individualism and would probably fight back against it myself. I didn’t know more than the coaches and neither do kids today.

Agree that Snyder understands this, and always has. The guy got his start coaching in California (LA to be exact) in the freaking 60s, a year after the Watts Riots.

Did you know that it is legal to tackle a player by their hair, which is considered part of a player’s uniform and distinctly denotes such a tackle is not a horse collar?

I believe that rule has changed within the last two or three years, but for the bulk of LHC Bill Snyder's time as a football coach, you are correct, you could tackle someone by their hair.  There was no policy at Kansas State against having deadlocks hanging out of your helmet. There was a rule banning hair from hanging out though. Durags were banned from the building just like baseball hats, cowboy hats, berets, stocking caps, derby hats, top hats, whatever.

Neither Shad or Kerry had their hair hanging below the top of their uniforms, they were neck length just below the bottom of the helmet but above the pads. There are pictures you can look at before you use false evidence to craft a nonexistent narrative.

I have no idea who this is. The twitter search yielded a bunch of pictures of a bald white dude who lives in Kansas City and this picture from 1990

If we're going back to some unphotographed dude from Snyder's second year, it's safe to say he had the same hair rule for all players.
