One thing I regret about my OU tenure was never having a class with this guy. Whether or not you agree with him, he probably has a very interesting lecture.

I'm sure there'll be a period of five or ten years, maybe more, where schools will really be careful. But like McCarthyism and disco, the evil of powerful coaches and administrators protecting a program's image -- or a close friend -- at the expense of doing the right thing will always lurk in the background.

We will get by.

We will get by.
We will survive.
