Aubrey Huff was not a fan of Mike Gundy apologizing for wearing a t-shirt for One America News Network, a media outlet known for controversy, and he’s now he’s even more upset over the punishment he has taken.
On Friday, the former San Francisco Giants star took to Twitter and called out Gundy for offering and accepting to take a $1 million pay cut as well as a year taken off his contract after the athletic department conducted the internal review over the backlash of him rocking that controversial shirt.
“I’ve never heard of a coach this soft in my life! @CoachGundy where’s your pride…your manhood? #cancelculture”
OSU’s athletic director said, that the internal review involved talking to around 20 former and current Cowboy football players.
“This wasn’t about a t-shirt,” Holder said. “This was about a lot of things.”
“The missing link has been a more personal relationship with their head coach,” Holder said. “They respect him as an excellent game day coach, but they want more coaching on a personal level. This crosses all racial lines. To a man, our players want a better connection with Mike Gundy. They view him as a difference maker, and they want him to help them grow as leaders. We conveyed this message to Coach Gundy, and his reaction has been everything that you would want.”
