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 has nothing to do with “Wokeism” or whatever dumbass phrase used. And everything to do with a Head Coach and Athletic Director not handling it properly. Do y’all think this type of situation rarely happens….. on college campuses….. in 2022?

Over the last year or two, there have been a lot of conversations regarding gymnasts of color speaking about their experiences. The topic of the N word has been one of them. Gymnasts from Florida and Bama have discussed issues and I even believe Lloimincia Hall discussed an incident as well. If the Coach and Athletic Director had done their job, then this would not even be a distraction.

I’m glad this young lady is at LSU and hopefully it’s a fresh start for her. But do a little more digging on how this conversation has been evolving over the last few years.

Innocent til proven guilty. Tried by her peers here at LSU and found not guilty. She's on the team now lets give her a chance to live. I'm pretty sure a 18 yr. Old white girl isnt a raging racist. Damn I get tired of racism brought up in EVERYTHING!
