The University of Kentucky cheerleading team has fired its entire coaching staff after an investigation uncovered incidents of hazing, public nudity and excessive alcohol use among cheerleaders. The university announced the news on Monday in a detailed release. Head coach Jomo Thompson and assistants Ben Head, Spencer Clan and Kelsey LaCroix were all fired. The school also cited “lax oversight and poor judgment” by adviser T. Lynn Williamson, who resigned after the investigation started following four decades with the team. Williamson had been barred from having contact with members of the team.

These cheerleaders were bad girls. I volunteer to spank them.

Nude is usually defined by uncovering about a square foot of body surfaces.

We all have nipples and genitals. I was never quite sure what the big deal I’d making sure everything was wrapped up. Although it made the unwrapping fun.

“What is the Pravda response to this situation?”

I believe that the NY Times deemed it ‘unacceptable conduct’ and therefore the rest of the media is outraged.

While the chick up in the air is definitely real, something is a bit off on the two holding her up.

“Why did the cheerleaders not tell the coach to eff off?”

And why didn’t some of them publicly complain? Perhaps after the firings they will. Perhaps the young ladies enjoyed being sexy.

I’ve worked in a hospital for 33+ years
I’ve seen enough naked stuff that I am quite immune
It comes basically in 2 flavors
Oh yes, cooked and uncooked (pre/post pubescent)

But otherwise, pushing dopamine pathways in young people
is very likely to have consequences

Several team members required medical treatment from consuming excess alcohol

We need to ban this dangerous drug.

Unprofessional, sure. But it’s just a bunch of college kids having fun partying. Coaches should have told them “not when they’re on “duty”.

A call from a family member in February prompted the investigation that revealed a party atmosphere at a team retreat at Lake Cumberland in Kentucky.

College kids went to a lake and a party broke out? And they drank alcohol there? Holy cow, I would have never imagined such a thing could happen.
