have a feeling this thread would be going a little differently if the coach was from a small new England liberal arts school, rejecting a player, and telling them to thank their conservative politicians


Drugs are illegal and liberals suck. How can u compare that to conservative values ?

Ûberdouche. It’s almost certainly a lie that players from CO are failing drug tests left & right, as he implies. CO actually has some of the lowest usage rates amongst high schoolers in the country. It’s just an in for him to lash out at “liberal politicians”. But, you know, church & shite, amirite?

Well Let’s ’s be honest. Weed being legal in Colorado won’t in and of itself affect the kids ability to pass or fail a drug test either. If he doesn’t use he will be fine. Kind of stupid reasoning by the coach.

Sounds like a conservative coach was injecting politics into his recruiting tactics.

This coach needs to go back to the 1940's.

and a kid just being from the state of Colorado doesn't automatically mean he will fail a drug test

Wesleyan gave a statement. It isn’t fake.

Seems to me like there would be a correlation between legalization and higher drug popping rates. Either way, that coach sounds like a douche bag with the way he said that.

All he had to say was, "We've had problems with kids from Colorado in the past with drug tests. At this point in time, we are not recruiting kids from Colorado. Best of luck to you in all future endeavors."

Fwiw, I think it's stupid to not recruit someone because of the state they're from.

He might want to look at his own state telling the NRA they can't have their annual conference in Dallas.

Supposedly not recruiting CO because of drugs is dumb, but whatever he's the coach. That being said, the liberal politics line is idiotic and the coach deserves criticism about that.

I swear, for most of the people who are supporting this clown, the term "liberal" means "not a freaking Nazi."

Why would somebody coming from a state where weed is legal move to a state where weed isn't legal fail drug tests? IT'S ILLEGAL. I guess he figures he's gonna buy a trunkful of legal weed before he moves to Texas. Because, you know, everyone in Colorado is addicted to weed.

So one Dallas city council member suggesting that they not have the conference in Dallas is the whole state telling the NRA that they can't have the conference in Dallas.
