As for UCLA Coach Cori Close’s claim that she never read the article before posting it, that’s a damn lie. She read the article from start to finish then posted it to motivate her team. To believe anything else is to suspend common sense.

You are right about everything else and wrong on this. We will never know what is in her heart, but her explanation was very convincing, and if she really reposted the article to damage LSU she would have even more reason to do so after being beaten. There are no compelling reasons to apologize unless she means it. If she stuck to her guns she would have the mob on her side.

There is a decent argument that the "dirty debutantes" reference is libel or slander, and "republishing" it could subject the person doing so, as well as her employer, to liability. I suspect she was genuinely sorry she had done it, but she was likely advised by UCLA or her own advisors to put out the statement.

I actually believe UCLA coach could have posted the la times article without reading it or simply glancing it over. If she does this a lot though, that’s a bad idea. The dirty debutantes is every bit as bad as nappy headed hoes. I bet la times never even reprimands the writer though.
