Seriously, almost all journalists (I’m not familiar with your work yet) act like a pack of wolves with no individual self-thought or creatism anymore.

Gundy did what he had to do to save his job but the idea of empowering student athletes to publicly shame their own coaches, university or state is wrong on every level.

There is a right way and a wrong way to do things regardless of how you feel and Chuba was very wrong.

If Gundy is wrong for wearing that t-shirt then so is every athlete for wearing BLM.

It’s all political!!! But bc Gundy’s represented the Right, the media mobs pounced on him.

I do believe this situation likely created a higher bond between Gundy and the team which was poised for a remarkable year already so there will be a happy ending to this story, but it comes at a cost to our society.

What a joke this story. Land of the free? Not in Stillwater

Why are sports journos always liberal douchebags? Is it because you were picked on in high school?

OAN is a truth reporting news network and not an 'extremist' outlet like the Red Media paints them as and deceives the public. Coach Gundy should have stood up to Hubbard and explained to him what is exactly troubling him about OAN. Hubbard needs to be educated correctly as he is the one being deceived by the mob.

I enjoyed the story and found it both humorous in some of the reactions and enlightening in some of the callous responses, particularly by Gundy. Mike is an emperor who has no clothes. He thinks he is a lot smarter than he is and he fell into a blessed situation where his is not particularly responsible for a lot of the success he has had.

For those who take umbrage with that assessment, only one reminder, Alex Cate started ahead of Brandon Weeden.

Thank you, I'm out and I won't be checking the snowflake conservative comments that will be posted here by the Gundy apologists...

Great work, Matt Brown. A great piece of investigative journalism to uncover the hypocrisy that is Mike Gundy and the Athletic Department at Oklahoma State University. Mike Gundy needs to go. There is no place in 2020 for using racial epithets, especially coming from a coach to his players.
