Uh-oh, it's now public and gaining steam. He'd better not show up at a Rosie O'Donnell concert or a Liberty game.

What is gaining steam? The fact that he used the street slang common to young people these days? Where do some of you live? Have you walked the halls of any inner city schools? Who was this language offensive to? A friend he was rapping with in Philly? Why are people who are sensitive to teens verbal expressions following him on Twitter? I am for freedom of expression as much as gay and lesbian rights but the fact remains that unless you are advertising that you are taking it up your wazoo in public or wearing a gay or lesbian button every day, no one would know or care about your sexual preferences. If we are so intent on defending unnatural acts of humans where do we draw the line? Bestiality? No offense Beast! Sado masochism? Sorry to all redmen fans! The only obscenities that should be discussed here are the last few losses to inferior opponents because we have been playing like bitches on the men's basketball team.

Hey... go pick up your dentures you just spit out. It was a joke.
 
@NYPost_Brazille: This proves Rysheed Jordan has been tweeting all year, breaking Steve Lavin's social media rule. Still believe the leave of absence story?

@NYPost_Brazille: Maybe the media ban isn't quite working out with Rysheed Jordan? Stunning suggestion, I know. #sjubb

Too much unproductive attention for this kid Imo. Zach & Lav obviously won't be vacationing together anytime soon. :)
 
@HowieKussoy: Before the Jordan tweet news, Lavin said today that Rysheed was a game-time decision bc of the knee. Haven't practiced since Creighton.
 
I seriously think Braziller has it out for Sheed. He loves it every time the kid does something that isn't up to his standards. All because Lavin doesn't let him talk to the media.

I think in fairness he feels, right or wrong, that Lav has let Jordan create his own set of rules. If the rule is no in season tweeting, abide by it. His teammates do.

While Ed Cooley is preparing his team for Saturday, I hope staff is not spending a minute on this crap. Wonder if Jordan has a "Euro step" Twitter move. So tired of this nonsense.

Like many on Redmen.com, Zach has to stop reading here and go back to work.

A bit disgusted, local sports writer taking taking to twitter and acting like he has it out for people, and not even linking sheed or Lavin on twitter since he's talking about them. Why not take them to task in a press conference instead? Sloppy

I do not believe in social media bans that curtail an individual's rights to free speech. Every student on social media represents their school like it or not. Is the debate team banned? Students in a class action just won unprecedented compensatory rights from the NCAA. It won't be long before social media bans are decided by the courts when it comes to athletes. Coaches like Pitino and Lavin have bigger problems than a kid tweeting in his spare time. Time to accept the fact that young people are addicted to their IPhones just like most of us in the 21st century. There are bigger fish to fly.

Can't argue with that, but stupid to make rules & enforce them selectively.

You just reminded me of another fetish for the older crowd here which I'm sure was in your subconscious when you mentioned dentures - the women who take out their dentures to give you a bj. B)

Well this is pretty obligatory, isn't it:

I agree. If you don't trust your players to represent your school on social media through the season, they probably shouldn't be apart of your program.
 
I just read an article on this situation and it said that the rules on Twitter had been "relaxed" by Lavin this year. So it was not a situation of selective enforcement. It did mention that the team is spoke to regularly about their responsiblity when social media.
We have become very sensitive as a society. I am sure a show like All in the Family could never make it to the screen in todays world. Even when it made the bigot look like a moron. This was 2 friends messing around, although the word is offensive and should not have been used by RJ to threaten a suspension or discipinary action, I believe, is taking it a bit to far. Hopefully he learns from this and better monitors his language.
