And The University of Kentucky should kick him off the team......NOW. This will mostly be symbolic, but he represents the great state of Kentucky and the University of Kentucky. If they had ANY CLASS whatsoever, he'd be gone.
WE shall see how this plays out.
Later,

Poor choice, no doubt. Poor sportsmanship, which has NOT been a calling card of this team or this coach.
The poor choice was one made in haste, full of emotion, by a 20 year old kid, after taking a loss that will haunt him for the rest of his life. That doesn't excuse it by any means, but in the same exact situation, I'd be curious to see what kind of poor choices any of us would have made.
He has already called Frank and apologized, wished him luck for Monday night. If the comment had been made by a white kid we would have probably already heard from Obama. I do think UK should address it publicly...and they will...but if every kid got kicked off every college team in America everytime they got excited and dropped an F-Bomb or a "Nigga"....there wouldn't be too many players. You do read lips on the TV coverage during games don't you?
As a Kentucky fan, I was more bothered by Willie Cauley-Stein walking off the court and not going through the handshake line. Coach should have went and grabbed his ass and drug him back. Unacceptable.
Tough night. Wisconsin executed their gameplan dang near perfect.
40-0 is something that may never happen. The fact that these kids were 2 shy of it will absolutely haunt them...don't care what anybody says otherwise. Hell of a run though...

No one from Wichita state did it last year, when they were undefeated.......in fact, I'm not sure ANYONE team has ever uttered something similar in the same situation.
It was classless, from a classless group of kids. ENTITLED is how I view it.......
Kentucky may be fine with this type of mentality.........I'm not. If it is all about winning and nothing else, then I don't want to be involved with it.........
Like I said earlier, I know a particular coach that would have went over to that mic and shoved it down his throat, and then would have proceeded to choke his sorry ass out.
He disrespected himself.
He disrespected Kaminsky.
He disrespected Coach Cal.
He disrespected Kentucky
He disrespected the School.
He disrespected the team and his teammates.
Sad thing.....he really doesn't give two shits about the comment..he is NBA bound, and will collect a gigantic check next year. He's GUARANTEED to declare now, after that silly ass comment.
If I were coach, he'd be done at my school...........PERIOD.
Very much agree on several of your points.
Passionately disagree on several others.
I'm going to leave it at that. lol
The university should publicly address it then be done with it. He's going to the NBA, and everybody already has their mind made up with regards to what kind of kids they are. Nobody's gonna be swayed. Just read the espn comments section its virtually a 50/50 hard split.
Karl, Alex, and Marcus are stand up guys. Can't find a classier threesome anywhere. That's all I'm gonna say!
If I were coach, I'd have walked my team off the floor and demanded new refs. I hope Calipari runs the table next year and declines the bid.
It's funny how we view the calls from the refs. Personally, I thought the game was called (for the most part) in favor of Kentucky. I was rooting for Wisconsin,thus my bias.
Yes, that late 2 pointer for Wisconsin was a second after the possession clock expired. I thought that was a good make up for the terrible call for a charge when a 3 pointer was voided for Wisconsin.
We all have our personal bias when viewing a game.
Here is my problem with what he said. I nor any other white guy can say that without SERIOUS issues afterwards. If one of those pasty white boys on Wisconsin would have said that MY GOD the world would have stopped turning but a black kid can do it and we get a so what attitude. Calipari will do nothing because he condones that crap and always has he's a slimeball.
Also Stein isn't the choir boy all of social medai thinks he is, maybe its ink poisening who knows. Here is why I think they were so mad, not only did they get beat they got beat by a bunch of hard headed four year college student athletes that were as white as my ass. Yea I said it and I really feel its true to. This is not being a racist or making a racist remark in fact its pointing out the other side of it, or as some call it reverse racism...whatever that is.
Terrible decision by Harrison. No defending it really. The part of this that has my scratching my head the most is that I thought Frank was white.

Russian Team, with Russian refs........and that happened how many years ago......and HOW long has that coach not been at Indiana?
Really, that's all you got........YOUR star play disrespects everyone, with a racist slur aimed at the national player of the year, and that is ALL you have to say about your wonderful team.
And you Kentucky fans wonder why everyone else in the world is thoroughly disgusted with Kentucky and their antics......
WOW.
