RSSBlack UK Basketball Player Andrew Harrison Says Racial Slur to White Wisconsin Player Frank Kaminsky after Kentucky’s Loss to Wisconsin … “F*CK that N*GGA” (Unedited VIDEO)
DOUBLE STANDARD … YA THINK!!!
If you missed the press conference following the University of Kentucky’s loss to Wisconsin in the NCAA Final Four semi’s Saturday night, you most likely then missed one of the greatest double standard ow well’s ever in sports. Especially in today’s PC sports where people’s words are used against them to label them racists. Watch the VIDEO below and you will hear UK’s Andrew Harrison say under his breath, caught on a hot mic, when a question is asked about how difficult it is to stop Wisconsin’s Frank Kaminsky. Andrew Harrison mutters a racial slur saying, “F*ck that Ni**a”. But it is OK, cuz Harrison is black and Kaminsky is white.
What do we think the reaction would have been if the roles were revered?
VIDEO – Andrew Harrison Caught on hot Mic saying ”F*ck That Ni**a” following question about Frank Kaminsky (Unedited)
A reporter asked Karl-Anthony Towns a question about Frank Kaminsky during Kentucky’s press conference after its Final Four loss to Wisconsin, and Andrew Harrison appeared to mutter a snide remark under his breath.
He’s frustrated, he’s heartbroken, and he probably never would’ve said this if he thought anybody could hear him. But still. Those mics are very, very sensitive!
Harrison apologized on Twitter early Sunday morning and said he called Kaminsky to wish him luck in the final.
Andrew Harrison would later Tweet an apology saying that it was said in jest. PLUEEZE … there was nothing in jest of what you said. Had the roles been reversed, the NCAA, the MSM and black America would have exploded and asked that the white player be banned from playing in the National championship game. Frank Kaminsky took the high road and accepted the apology and said its over and nothing more needs to be said. Its just too bad they are not teaching class at UK.
Not only are they not teaching class at the men’s NCAA basketball program, Kentucky coach John Calipari is not even going to use the incident as a teaching moment and Harrison will face no discipline for the remark. What a joke. I just wonder when a white boy says the same thing one day if all will say, its just kids saying dumb things? Just another reason, other than his past cheating, why John Calipari does not belong in the Hall of Fame.
Bonnie Bernstein of Campus Insiders talked to Kentucky coach John Calipari on Sunday morning and reported that Harrison will face no discipline for the remark.
“The biggest thing I want to tell you, these are great kids,” Calipari said to Bernstein. “They’ll do dumb things at times. They’ll say dumb things, like we all do. Things you regret later and they apologize for it. These are young kids, they’re 19 years old. In that moment of trying to make a historic thing, probably did some things. But I love these guys and I know what they’re about.”
Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan said the incident could be viewed as a teaching moment.

Really big of the White Wisconsin player. Tell that forgive and forget story to the white female from University of SC, who wrote the ‘N’ word in her list of reasons the college internet is no good. I don’t know what effect race has on internet service, but she is another 19 yr old who did something stupid, but she is suspended from school over it.
So much for equality.
where’s obama’s house boys now ? Al and Eric probably gloating that this has happened and barely made the news.
I sent an email to UK’s public relations dept, and I’m sure it will do no good. Next non-black student there that gets in trouble there for racist behavior, needs a good lawyer.
What a racist and Ignorant statement. The University of Kentucky and Calipari are just as guilty for sweeping this under the rug. Racism isn’t “stupid,” it’s a sign of
a person who is okay with insulting someone because of their race.
