5 Ways To Avoid Saying The N-Word On The OU Campus

Here we go again.

For what seems like the 500th time in recent history, there's another controversy on the OU Campus regarding the N-word.

This time around, it involves long-time OU football assistant coach Cale Gundy. The former star QB turned long-time assistant coach shocked the Sooner Nation when he resigned last night after admitting to saying a "shameful word" – which I think we can all safely assume is the N-word – during a film session with players.

Ignoring the reason for his resignation, this is shocking and...well...sad.

I'm a 44-year-old diehard Sooner fan and Cale Gundy is the first super recruit I really remember signing with the team. OU was in the early stages of its decade-long 90s slump, and he was supposed to be the guy that would turn it all around and bring championship glory back to the program. I clearly remember being at my grandparent's house watching his debut during the UCLA game, living in dying with every pass he threw. He even had Keith Jackson excited about "His first pass as a Sooner!"
