this writeup centers things around kirk's "vulnerability." which, obviously, is striking.

but making this moment and that whole block about kirk, and not the topic, is #hustlinbackwards and kinda sorta the same ol sh t. https://twitter.com/awfulannouncing/status/1302652229799882760

in that same block, one of the greatest college football players ever said he wanted to plan a boycott 30 years ago, but got dimed on by his teammates. THAT'S A BIG DEAL, GUYS.

that, understandably, got lost in this. but we've had time to consider that.

and i seriously doubt that herbstreit -- whom i do not know -- would be so overcome emotionally thinking about the state of racism in america, but also want you to think the lesson to take from that is that he cried, not the things that brought him to tears.

don't wanna ruin your touching moment or anything, but you guys are doing the same stuff you said you weren't gonna do anymore.

also of note from gameday -- lee corso explicitly saying he agreed with the conferences shutting down this year. it's not as easy to dismiss him as some bleeding heart on this one, yanno?
