abw0004 10,125 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 This may actually be the Halloween contest Chizik held for the players that year. I remember the publicity of it on social media and one of my fraternity brothers was a linebacker for the team. Every player was dressed up, even Cam Newton. The winner got a free iPad.

jw 4 au 526 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I watched the movie 48 Hours again the other day, first time in a long time. The N-word didn’t used to mean as much back then as it does today. I was shocked how much both Eddie and Nick Nolte used it towards each other. But don’t recall ever think twice about it back in the 80’s as a symbol of racism. Then again, it is only a word and I don’t consider myself racist in the slightest. Sometimes people see or direct their own feelings into a word or situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an Auburn student around that time I saw plenty of that and it was meant to poke fun at black people. Well I am glad you were able to clear up his intentions for us all.

cole256 17,084 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 If you can't see the system in this this you're just plain dumb. In college you have the well off kids, who go to college where they are super entitled and privileged in frats and sororities. They are numb to doing things that doesn't concern them and they don't care and they don't see the problem in doing things like this. But these are the people that become the decision makers in society and they are out of touch because they just know what they know and when they are grown they can't understand things such as white privilege and systemic racism, and people that do things like black face they may have a couple of black people they know but they aren't familiar with black people and they don't believe that there are struggles in being black. Because of course they struggled in their shelteredlife and look they somehow made it...... We all make mistakes. What's the big deal of black face. They still deserve good jobs lol.

AUApostle 7,651 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 We don't know and can't judge College Ryan's intentions from 10 years ago. It's unfortunate that he decided that was a good idea; hopefully he's repented and changed if he had malice in his heart. I always think people deserve 2nd chances if they've put in the work and time to change...it's difficult for any university in the public eye to hire him at this point in time.

cole256 17,084 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I'm sure his racism washed off like the black face he put on....can't judge him lol. You guys are harder on football players dropping a pass that a racist act. Hilarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First off this was 2010 before people were freaking out over it. 2nd I guess Joy Behar should be fired and any other actor who played a black person. While we are at it, lets go attack the Wayans brothers for dressing up as white chicks, and any little kid who ever dressed up as an Indian during Halloween, Thanksgiving, or play time. Lets go a head and remove Biden as he was best friends with a KKK leader. People change, so me something recant from Pugh that he should be judge on not something from his college days that at the time was not a big deal.

I know well of his frats work I was in a frat (and decidedly did not grow up in a life of privilege lol)and we had plenty of people that did dumbass things, grew up in a life of privilege, and probably remain clueless about why things like this are so offensive. I do wonder though if an isolated incident as a teen/young adult should haunt us and disqualify us for the rest of our lives. I never did that stuff but I did do stuff that I look back on and cringe; I was probably just more immature than my contemporaries. I guess I continue to be amazed and saddened by how something as simple as the color of one’s skin/race continues to divide humans. Sigh....

Almost had a falling out with one of my room mates.
