Mizzou Tigers (official thread)

[BigWoof31]

So which University will be the next to try and force their President out?

To find out, apply this simple test:

1). Is the President of my University a minority or a woman?
2). If you answered yes to the above question, don't worry, nothing will happen.

Stacy Elliot has as much of a stake in what is going on as anyone on the Mizzou board....given the era he went to the school, I'm (unfortunately) 100% certain he's been subjected to the same assholery.....

Even with last week's win, I'm going to organize a Fire Shawn Eichorst movement.

The players already boycotted 6 games... if it hasn't worked already...

That bastard. Then, I see the Ol Ball Coach on the sidelines on Saturday? And his butt buddy over there, Eichorst.

Maybe we have the wrong Eichorst here. We need one with killer instinct...

It will be really fun when we eventually find out what connections the people orchestrating this have with the NBPP and other groups behind much of the unrest in St Louis last year.

Would appear so.

“We had two different homecomings,” said Elliott, who then decided on the spot, “I'm coming to Columbia to stand with them [protesters].”

Two different homecomings. Not in 1950 or 1960, but in 1990.

Bammer Alpha Phi laughs at your test...

When I was in High School in PA, the KKK came and recruited right by the school. That was 1995.

Unfortunately, I can't say I'm surprised. Shit like that is systemic and needs to be stomped out immediately.

Yale's working on it. Just posted this in a related thread:

It sounds like Mizzou landed in the conference where it belongs.

It speaks volumes when that is coming from The Atlantic.

The Atlantic has gotten really schizophrenic. Excluding Coates' serious (whether one agrees with his ideas or not) pieces, about 80% of the articles are trite little complaints about racial, gender, ethnic inequality/privilege that are mostly superficial at best and illogical or absurd at worst (the worst was probably one about the supposed sexism of the standard height of kitchen counters). The schizophrenic part comes from the occasional counterpoint article where they complain about freedom-stifling PC (even though they contribute to it as much as anyone). I honestly wonder if they even believe what they write or it's just advanced trolling and the pretty much lily-white, young, coastal-city based, staff writers are competing to see who can produce the most deliberately absurd article and get the most comments.

That was hard to read. A bunch of hyper-entitled people running around in faux outrage over earnest dialogue. I really hope our brightest and best aren't "lost".

I've had a number of connections with Antioch University (now college again) going back to childhood. This is exactly the sort of behavior that permeated the campus in the late 80's & early 90's...growing to the point it finally almost destroyed the school.

The kind of behavior that made Antioch a national punchline in the 90's (written permission slips for kissing) has become commonplace across the country.

Henry Clay could have told you that in 1820.

Breaking news alert just came across my phone: Wolfe has resigned.

Well, at least no weekends were ruined in this whole mess.
