UCLA gymnast Alexis Jeffrey transfers to LSU after she was harassed by former teammates

Leaving a UCLA program amid apparent unrest within the team, gymnast Alexis Jeffrey has transferred to LSU and will be eligible to compete for the Tigers this season, coach Jay Clark said.
Jeffrey, a freshman from Warrensburg, Missouri, is enrolled at LSU and is in the process of being added to the team as a walk-on, Clark said.
"According to team sources, the conflict began early in the fall when several gymnasts heard a teammate who is not Black sing lyrics that included the N-word. Two other teammates who heard about the incident and additional use of the N-word approached the gymnast who had sung the lyrics to help her understand why her teammates were offended and seek an apology."
"It was accompanied by claims that UCLA gymnasts bullied her into transferring by suggesting she take her life or putting rotten fish in her locker or backpack."
The more I read about this story and the situation this poor girl was forced to endure the happier I am to give her a welcome to LSU. You no longer have to deal with those mentally challenged idiots at UCLA who have caused all this foolish chaos.

Welcome to your new home. No one needs that type of harassment.

Well, due to the horrendous journalism characteristic of both Scott Rabalais and the Advocate, I read that entire story and still have no idea who is who, who said what, who was offended, or why this girl was threatened.
And I also don’t give a flying frick about any of it. Welcome home, Alexis. We’re nothing special, but we’re way better than that shithole you just left

My kids explained to me that there’s this unspoken thing where white people singing rap songs are supposed to sing a censored version, just not saying certain words, like a radio version. Apparently young people are somehow just supposed to know this. It’s all silly to me, but some of these kids take these made up rules too seriously, especially when there is absolutely no racist intent anywhere in the situation.
This gal is from Missouri. The dispute may be more about a Missouri kid moving to Los Angeles than anything else. West Coast smug is real. Rabalais probably can’t explain it because he doesn’t understand it either.
Obviously UCLA was not a good fit. Welcome aboard and everyone gets a reset and a fresh start.

So because the teammate was white they cannot sing this song?

Welcome Alexis! I hope you find your new home to be everything you are looking for, but more than anything a place where you can thrive and feel safe.

This reminds me a bit of my cousin who was a talented basketball player that committed to Delaware a couple of years ago. During all the BLM protests the team decided to kneel during the National Anthem. She said she would not do this so the coach told the team if everybody didn’t kneel then no one can kneel. She was constantly harassed with similar threats afterward. She played out her season and after the last game she and her parents packed up her apartment and moved back home. It ruined sports for her.

Yes, now a new brand of mentally challenged idiots at LSU can harass her until she harms herself. Or did you forget that LSU is a marxist run school now?

The gymnastics thread on the recruiting board has been talking about this for weeks. There is apparently a very rabid group of gymnastics Karens who are all up in the national gymnastics environment. They all claim to be insiders who know all the scoop of each team and make some creepy comments about the athletes that border on stalking. Anyway...these Karens seem to hate LSU and were all over the program for the "lax" enforcement of COVID protocols. So, now LSU is racist for taking this racist bigot on to the team.

Accused of rap singing while white. So stupid. She got out of California so it actually worked out good for her.
