Nebraska's struggle for relevance.

If there's one thing I've learned over the last month plus is that there are no white people that give a flying eff about white supremacy.

That's a weird thing for the title ix director to say. I'm curious what the racial discrimination was then because the article makes it seem like it was specifically and repeatedly directed at the student and I can't think of how that would not be investigated.

she never would have said that. I'm sure there were some things said about free speech on campus (turningpoint downgrades caused a shitload of issues on campus years ago that are still reverberating) and a lot of that discussion occurred. but the way it's presented never happened.

I think she did, but not in the context in which some are taking it. She was the title IX director, claims of potential racial discrimination are out of her perview. I took her saying that as less "I can't do anything to help you" and more "they won't do crap about that."

Because there's no defined protection for this. It's protected by the first amendment, that's what you've been saying for weeks. If this woman was walking to class and every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday this other student was in the hallway and said "hey coon" to her every damn time, that's protected and should be, that's the argument you have made. This is a university official affirming that speech is protected.

Good grief mir, that's not what I've said at all. Don't be dax.

It's not? You didn't have the argument that racist speech should be offered 1st amendment protections?
I'm not daxing at all, don't ever accuse me of that.
SD feel free to move these posts to the other thread, if possible.

Harassment is harassment, regardless of if it's "hey coon", "hey fattie", "hey towelhead", or whatever. Applying a racial component does not negate the harassment. I honestly have no idea how you came to think that's my belief.

They wanna be back in the Big 12 so bad...

Now is not the time for mocking Nebraska.  Now is the time for courting.  Later, after the rekindled relationship has been consummated, is the time for mocking.

I personally think their blow up doll is a fine mascot.

Come on home, Nebraska.  Do you really want to be stuck up there with all those uptight AAU schools too afraid to play college football?  Come back with us, crack open a beer with your old degenerate pals, and take a walk on the wild side.  We miss you guys soooo much.  OU misses you!  It's going to be a great college football season here in the Big 12.

My first reaction was to let them rot and take everybody else that wants in.

The Texas and OU Presidents need to make their president literally get on his knees and beg to be let back into the Big 12.  After he makes his plea Texas and OU need to let them flail around wacky wavy arm guy style in the breeze for a few weeks before they make a decision.  Would be incredible.

The Mountain West would love them and they'd win big there, well until BYU got back there.

Perfectly sums up what Nebraska thinks of themselves.

All rough ridin' with Nebraska aside, the reason why that source is full of crap is exactly why we only have 10 teams in the conference now. Nebraska, nor anyone else, will be welcomed with open arms into this conference unless they are someone who will convince ESPN and Fox to give the conference $30 million more dollars a year. These schools aren't going to give Nebraska a cut of their money because of some nostalgia. Really the thought is really rough ridin' absurd and makes me question who Dodd's source is and what he tried to do with that tweet. There's no one even affiliated with the conference that would care since Nebraska left, Jamie Pollard, Mike Holder, Mike Gundy, and Kirby Hocutt are the only UPs, ADs, or head coach with any relevant tie to the old big 12.
