If you wish to remove my post, as moderator, I guess that's your prerogative. Nowhere in my post did I say that the comment was made by Collins. I said it was attributed to the coaching staff. I don't know who said it but I was told about the comment on two different occasions by two different sources from within the program. I was dismayed by the comment and did not want to believe that in this day and age that this type of stereotype still existed.
 
#1bearsfan,

I appreciate your sensitivity. Unless we hear it firsthand, I hate to see something out there that could really push people away from the program. Maybe it was a joke, maybe heard out of context, we just don't know.

Maybe you should write a letter (anonymous or from yourself, whatever is comfortable) to the coach and let him know what you've heard and why it was disturbing. If true, he can take a good look at himself. If not true, he'll need to make his position clearer to the staff.

That's a good suggestion.
 
If you don't know who said it then I think it should stay off the board. I do think it is very disturbing and think it should be investigated.
 
I think it's funny people on here claiming to have "sources", but yet the info they receive from these "sources" is far from the truth. I guess I have a "source" close to the team to, and I hard some shit about Downing, and as much as I don't like that the guy I wouldn't come on to a message board and air it out. Because for one, none of us really knows what goes on behind the scenes, I'm sure a lot of stuff is said and done. I mean for one take a look at the players that have committed so far this year in regards to this supposed comment. That should answer any doubt you have. And I highly doubt Collins would tolerate that type of talk if he heard it, from kids or his staff.
