Following Texas Tech's win over Ole Miss in last night's TaxAct Texas Bowl, Rebels head coach Lane Kiffin said an opposing player spit at one of his own players and suggested the player uttered a racial slur at his player...

quote:
"There was a racial slur involved; that's not the point of what we're talking about, [it's] about the spitting part," Kiffin told reporters. "I brought our own 71 up to the officials, right or wrong, you see him crying? He's not crying, not because he got spit on, it's because something was said."

On Thursday, Texas Tech fired back at Kiffin's accusations

If they are both black the TT guy could have called the Ole Miss guy and Uncle Tom.

I think that releasing statements that some lawyer wrote, and claiming it is some kid's or coaches' statement, should be banned. If the kid, or coach, has something to say, let them say it. without legal-aid.

Lost all respect for Lane now. His team got their arse handed to them, plain and simple.

Is Kiffin saying his player is crying because he was called the n-word?

Kiffin is an immature individual, always has been and always will be...that is the reason he will NEVER win anything no matter where he coaches. Ole Miss and their hotty toddy BS deserve this clown.

The fact that so much effort was wasted on this, and those responses were so finely tuned, means that this most likely did happen.

Way to overshadow the tribute to Leach with this nonsense.

Whatever was said must have been super serious to bring 71 to tears.
