(The HC we don’t speak of) the minute WVU releases him you need to be on the phone with Vic and your season goes from 6-6 to 10-2.

VK , coaching wise, would be a massive massive upgrade for the staff and our D. Not sure how the players would react in this day and time about hiring back the racist coach angle.

I think some of this is a little over the top... I think it's more so a case of Martin not being able to handle VK's leadership and verbage after perceiving him to somehow be against black people. The only thing I really read that may have been bad judgement from VK was the comment about protesters...
...but this player is also angry that VK said "everybody get in the house and upstairs" for a meeting, and said it was like VK thinks the players are his property??
Martin needs to gain some maturity and stop seeing this from a victim mentality. Most of that tweet was really a stretch, and sounds like it was based off of one or two instances that weren't exactly "racist", but were things that Martin didn't like about VK.
There are a lot of Troy players that loved him, and many of them are probably going to disagree with this players viewpoint.
If VK gets fired for this, then it's terribly unjust.

I think the one think that is going to get him is when he said “build the wall and keep Hispanics out of the country.” The other stuff is other stuff, as you say above.

Yes, that was the other thing that was not very good, but who really knows if that supposed quote was embellished some, and not actually what VK said. And I say that because these kids tend to exaggerate actual situations to support their cause... this coming from a millennial (myself).

Just two small question and I could be out of line for asking it but here it is:
First: Where are all the other players from the WVU football team that should be supporting Mr. Martin case in this matter. I'm not hearing of any tweets or news that there is a percentage of players stepping up to support the allegations. Was Coach Vic wrong or right and us not knowing all the details I'm thinking between the AD and HCNB they should get this right but still you would think that the country would be hear more from his supporters and being a little more vocal. Second:Is this a moment in time for WVU or will it effect the reason?

Did anybody see where Kerry Martin's HS coach has announced that Martin was lying about the "slave master" comment?
There are also quite a few black players on Twitter in the comments that are defending VK.
From the very beginning, this didn't add up.

The important thing is how the university treats this. VK could be completely innocent of the remarks or it was said in a different context then what is reported and still be considered guilty.

I know many of you are not on Twitter to see the tweet from @coachvic_WVU , "With time to reflect, some thoughts from my heart."

Snowflake generation of pansies. Everything and everyone is a racist. So much so that is diminishes the word. These players today while bigger, faster and stronger than players of 30+ years ago...are soft. They couldn't survive the old two and three a days, coaches in their faces etc. Truly sad. IMO VK is not a racist but he is old school and what he said wasn't racist. Keeping ILLEGAl hispanics out is not racist...It's the law. Little snowflake got his feelings hurt

This investigation is nearly gone on for two weeks...I thought this would have been fairly quick, but I guess not.
