I hope they continue to get an education and learn something from this experience, but they should not be allowed to represent the university any further.<br /><br />Also, stereotyping an entire state or university for the actions of ten 19- and 20-year old kids is not any different than what these kids did to an undeserving player. The truth is any time you get a group of people together no matter where they're from, there are going to be some bad apples in the mix. I can assure you everyone at USM was sickened by the actions of these kids, as evidenced by the apologies issued by the university president and athletic director, as noted above.<br /><br />At any rate, good game, K-State. Rodriguez seems like a good kid. I hope he doesn't let this affect him, and he has a good experience at K-State from here on out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5211132192347985363.post-79905051410198502672012-03-17T11:12:34.355-04:002012-03-17T11:12:34.355-04:00Wow, clearly one can see the "great" cal...Wow, clearly one can see the "great" caliber of education the students at Southern Miss. are receiving, keep up the good work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5211132192347985363.post-77024934597920184582012-03-17T00:48:58.894-04:002012-03-17T00:48:58.894-04:00Mississippi, like Alabama, is a racist state and m...Mississippi, like Alabama, is a racist state and most of its citizens are ignorant and morons.

What does Angel's character, which is intact, or proving oneself have to do with anything? This type of behavior and inward attitudes are vulgar and reprehensible no matter the circumstance.

He came to this country to work hard and get an education. We are proud of what he has accomplished todate and look forward to his continued improvement on the court and getting his degree at this university. We here in Kansas try to judge a person on their character and Angel has already proven himself to us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
