Oklahoma State University football coach Mike Gundy apologized Tuesday following the backlash he received for wearing a One America News Network (OANN) T-shirt.
"I want to apologize to all members of our team, former players and their families for the pain and discomfort that has been caused over the last two days. Black Lives Matters to me. Our players matter to me," Gundy said Tuesday, according to ESPN.
The Cowboys head coach said he met with his players during a video call Tuesday afternoon, during which running back Chuba Hubbard and some other team members expressed concerns over support for OANN, a right-wing network that is supportive of President Trump and has been sharply critical of the Black Lives Matter movement.
Trump recently caught bipartisan criticism amplifying a baseless claim made on OANN that the 75-year-old man shoved to the ground and injured by police in Buffalo, N.Y., could be an "antifa provocateur."

Sad. I love OAN.
In Oklahoma he should be fired for being stupid.

Between this and Kyler Murray kneeling OK is going to be solid Trump.
How much will the media show Saturday?

College football? Who needs it?
What a craven.
Maybe some other sports figure will complain about an MSNBC shirt. Then probably not. We live in a gutless world.
The Cowboys do not want to lose Chuba Hubbard. They will do what it takes to make him happy and keep him on the team.
Sold his soul.
Apologies are confessions to these people. What a maroon!
Geez what a cuck.
Coach - “I just want to apologize yet one more time ...”
Player - “enough. Now kneel for me.”
Coach - “Oh OK. How is this?”
Player - “Fine. Now shine my shoes!”
Coach — “But they’re Nike’s. You want me to put black shoe polish on Nike’s?”
Player — “enough. You may go”.
My alma mater is DEAD TO ME. Not ONE MORE DOLLAR.
Apologize for being a coward and resign. Total loser.
