This like bigute’s defense of DUIs. It’s ok if Utes do it.

Are we really defending racism with semantics?

I'm still shocked that Scalley didn't get the Ryan Pugh treatment...

Dude stop. Scalley's a good guy who made a minor error in judgement.

But what if they are an utah coach. That’s seems to give a blanket okay

Ojiisan
