Marshall Henderson has gotten himself into some trouble over his comments about Michael Sam being shown on Sportscenter. He has used the excuse that he was just doing an experiment, but Ole Miss has come out strongly against their “former player” with this statement from the AD:
I'm extremely disappointed & we do not condone the statements made by our former bball player. We believe in respect & dignity for all……

We use significant resources to educate our student-athletes about respect & dignity for all people & unfortunately not everyone gets it….

Well that didn’t take long. Given the history of discrimination at Ole Miss though, they were wise to come out strongly against this. Plus they have nothing to lose now that he is a former player.
