Utah has suspended defensive coordinator Morgan Scalley and launched an external investigation concerning a 2013 text message he sent that included a racial slur, Utes athletics director Mark Harlan announced Friday on social media.
Harlan said that he was made aware of the text message Wednesday and that he had spoken to Scalley, who "is very contrite and acknowledged that the text was sent and that it did include a derogatory and painful word."

I would have no problem with clubbing the interlocutors like baby Harp seals...
Those who listen to rap music that uses this word?
Those who listen to rap music that glamorizes the killing of police, raping "bitches and hos", etc.
Will they be held accountable??
Ref: Which is more inane?
While it’s only my opinion, the apology.
Nothing will be gained. Nothing will be forgotten. Nothing will be eased.
The price to be extracted will be never ending.
The exception: If it was to an individual and not needed. And then, it would be between and betwixt me and that person.
Other than that: Fire me. I’m a grown up so I’m going to survive.
See “Salem Witch Trials” for context.
E-mail is often called evidence mail for good reason. It amazes me that some otherwise bright folks just dont get that.
when are the blacks going to be suspended for saying the same word?
when are blacks going to be suspended for saying derogatory names for whites?
John 8:7 - But when they continued asking Him; he lifted up Himself, and said unto them, he that is without sin, let him first cast a stone.
I agree. Two things few will ask:
Why don’t blacks talk about black on black and black on white crimes?
Why do blacks get a pass for their racist stances?
I know, based on what liberals tell us that blacks need more school funding, that blacks are less educated and with that they lack proper vocabulary skills, but that should not matter.
When Rudy T. got punched out by Kermit Washington in an NBA game back in the 70s, there were plenty of sympathizers for the attacker. Ali calling Joe Frazier a gorilla and yet Ali was worshiped. There are many other instances. Most recently, a black person on a sports channel said of a player from the past “that white boy could play.” I said it yesterday, if an NHL player said “that black boy can play” about a hockey player he would be done and now!
But perhaps we have become apathetic. It shouldn’t be. Stop buying tickets, stop supporting these dunces and by all means do not buy a jersey with their last names and wear it. That is demeaning. A player wouldn’t wear your last name, just because someone bounces a ball shouldn’t make him a hero especially if he is going to spew hatred about race relations.
The Utes are out of control.
“Is it the witch hunt or the apologies that are more inane? “
It’s ESPN. Next they will be saying an email from this guy in 1982 failed to use some woman’s chosen pronoun!
It’s just the very beginning of the purge.
“Year Zero”, just as with the Khmer Rouge.
I think that the left peaked early...rookie mistake.
Blacks are FAR MORE racist towards whites that the other way around!!
have they suspended any black players that have said racist things about white people yet? Everyone screams about equality- so suspend black folks for racism like you do white folks for racism so that everyone is equal
Dave Chappelle nailed it in his discussion of cancel culture.
What was the text message? Never mind, or you could be cancelled forever.
But are we sure he wasnt cancelled for role-playing like the Papa Johns dude?
