Message: [QUOTE="Mokum, post: 2773566, member: 8522"] While I get it concerning this as a legal strategy, there is no way I am buying into the idea that any of this has to do with him being black, white , an Eskimo or a man from Mars. It has to do with Uconn not wanting to pay him, and were it a white guy, they would not want to pay him either. I'm sure this is the lawyers idea ( well pretty sure) and I see this kind of crap as very disrepectful to the people who fought for civil rights all those decades ago,putting their lives on the line. I personally witnessed and even participated in marches in the 60's. This is not what those people had in mind, using racism as a legal tool everytime a black person doesn't get what they want. Does anyone really believe, in 2018, that educated people, president of a university and so on, behind closed doors are saying, screw him, he's just a blankety blank? I don't. [/QUOTE]
