Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage: lemmy.ca
'A social media account linked to [Columbia coach Taylor] Claggett also posted anti-trans messages after the game.'
'"We stand in support of Taylor Claggett, and all our coaches, in expressing their legitimate concerns for the safety of our student-athletes," the statement [from the bible college] said.'
Fine. Columbia Bible College should be kicked out of the PacWest conference, and possibly have their academic accreditation revoked.
Fucking hate-based assholes.
I really wish people would be civil, and I do believe trans rights are human rights.
The thing that bugs me most is the coach's inappropriate outburst, and the lack of response by PACWEST. I know trans people in sports is a contentious issue, but presumably Harriette is an eligible player. If you don't like the rules, you should get made at the rule makers, not your opponents. And PACWEST's silence is deafening. From the sounds of it, the coach's actions would have resulted in disciplinary actions if the subject was different.

Yup. Any other sport and a coach does that? They're sanctioned, no doubt about it.
Same as that player. She should have been banned for that show of violence.
The entitlement and drama from the Columbia Bible College basketball Team when theyโre only guests is completely unacceptable.
