If this is what the fan said he still needs to be banned.
Not confirmed yet, but reports are coming out that the Texas Tech fan apparently said "go back to Africa" to Marcus Smart. Thoughts?

Being reported that Jeff Orr said "Go back to Africa" to Marcus Smart
— Eric Rosenthal (@EricSports) February 9, 2014
Orr, the Texas Tech fan Marcus Smart pushed, reportedly told Smart, "Go back to Africa, n*****", prompting retaliation.

That is totally out of line, but it does mesh with the text messages Jeff Orr sent to a friend immediately after the incident. The only difference (and frankly it is still bad either way) was did he add the nigger behind it.
