No one is saying they don't have a right to protest. They have no right to be free from the consequences of their actions and they have no right to be free from being called duped dumbasses.
Reading your comments and the many Mizzou posters, I'm starting to see a pattern. Maybe these players and others really do have an issue?
I know nothing about the situation, so I cannot form an opinion. I really don't care who is right or wrong but I will defend anyone that feels the need to peacefully protest, even if it's over some stupid shite. For you to play 'tit for tat', they do this, we will do that (yank schollies) really doesn't help Mizzou's situation.
Have you considered what that type of action would mean to the university? Do you not see the consequences of that action?

It shouldn't affect your life but it would affect money, money and money and that's all the people who make money off of all college athletes care about. I'm just saying a lot of things would change with the sport and it's that simple. As long they are scoring touchdowns it's ok and nothing else matter darn shame

I just want to know what the protesters want the school to say. If Wolfe resigns, that will not be the end of it. What exactly do you want to hear to be perfectly content?

Holding an entire school ransom to get one guy fired for things he had no control over is ridiculous. Especially considering we are talking about RANDOM and UNCONNECTED acts by people on a COLLEGE campus.
A Nazi Swastika is more offensive to Jews than to blacks anyways, so I really don't see how that fits into this other than to give them more bullshite to stand on.
If there was a KKK rally in the dorms, maybe I could understand the outrage, but some random mental case smearing shite on a wall? That yells "systematic oppression"?
These allegations are as thin as a white guys dick.

You know nothing about the situation but keep posting like you do.
I don't think Mizzou should (or will) pull their scholarships.

he explained it pretty well, but to take it one step further, they have the right to protest but that DOES NOT give them the right to ignore or deny the terms of the scholarship agreement that they accepted on enrollment, which among other things includes "show up for practice, make grades, be more than an abject failure as a community role model".

Do you not see the consequences of that action?
apparently you don't, but I'll go you one better, if these students feel so strongly about this protest why doesn't even one of them just get up and walk out, leave campus and never come back?
why not? why not just one of them?
Do you want to explain that?

Have you considered what that type of action would mean to the university? Do you not see the consequences of that action?
So, precedent should be set whereby anyone can quit a team but should retain the scholarship, right? And what about scholarship limits from the NCAA? Mizz should just rebuild their roster without use of scholarships right?
Zero consequences for the players. Huge consequences for the university, and the local economy, and the teammates that wish to continue playing, right?
Where do you sign up for this zero consequences way of life?

So if they follow through and don't show up for practice and team business and the university still honors their scholarships does a regular paying student have a cause of action for a discrimination suit?

Ok fine. Don't play college football and not have a shot at the NFL. I'm sure they'll all become doctors and lawyers. That'll solve it.
I played college football and I can tell you that the biggest fallacy among fans are that EVERY football player has a shot at the NFL? Less than 0.03% of HS players will ever make an NFL roster. Less than 0.0015% will play more than 3 years.
We watch over 70,000 college football players play each Saturday. Less than 300 will get a look at the NFL. Do you call that a legitimate shot? It's more like the lottery.
But somehow so many people think it is easier for them to make the NFL than being a doctor or lawyer?
I can't tell you how many people have come up to me in my lifetime to ask "did you play football". Their very next sentence is "did you play in the NFL".

Why do groups like this always want the atom bomb dropped? Why not ask for something you can get like more representation and meetings with officials to ensure a better response when soething like this happens? It always goes immediately to ... Fire Somebody! (happens on left and right)
