Just curious... If the fan called Smart a racial slur, was he justified for shoving the fan.

I think its an interesting debate about where the line should be drawn for fans to get away with jawing at players. Let's first see if there's any truth to this. My personal opinion is that sports should have leeway for fan behavior, but there's a line that fans too often cross.

Exactly....this video is be...piece of crap then nothing

and what will happen to the fan? Will he lose his tickets??

It's also an embarrassment to me that Tech would basically side with their asshole fan in this instance. The guy "voluntarily agreed" not to attend any more games this year. If his actions really are "unacceptable" and "not condoned" by the university as it says, ban him from the ****ing games.

From the audio, doesn't sound like it. But it sounds like LOTS of OSU alumni are coming out of the woodwork claiming that Orr says some weird shit and that the N-word is said all the time at games in Lubbock. Was he guilty this instance? Who knows. But it sounds like he had this coming for a long time and got off light.

How many fans were sitting around Orr? Lets hear one fan in the 40 or so ppl vicinity that would have heard what he said, go on record saying that he called him otherwise. I haven't heard it.

The problem is so many ppl want to assume race baiting right away without any evidence. Then when you supply evidence (the video) they deny it, say it must be "doctored". Just unbelievable. Calling someone a piece of crap, at a sporting even, is on the lesser end of the spectrum of the worst things I've heard. Not even close to being bad. Go to a Chiefs game one time, listen to what is yelled at the opposing team when they are on offense, you'll hear wayyy worse.

Ban him for calling Smart a piece of crap? If they start banning every fan that says something derogatory towards a player from an opposing team, Allen Field House is going to be pretty empty.

No doubt. Just another reason their statement and inconclusive video is incredibly suspect.

Why? The fan is being slandered all over social media. They sure as hell better back up their fan if they have the evidence. Good for them IMO. I had teetered onto Smart's side a bit once everybody on twitter (who wasn't at the game) were saying he said "go back to africa", but it makes perfect sense now. Nothing remotely like that was said, Smart is just a hot head.

Even if it's to bring in "security" to handle their mockers, that's something. Again, had fat-ass held if pillowbiter-ass tongue, this would never have happened. I can only hope his family takes never-ending shit from folks for the coming weeks. Just words, not violence, and lets see if that pillowbiter "walks away"! It's not like the fat **** doing the mocking was even tossed. And his whore, slut, cum-dripping (from the street corner) wife was helping him. Her whore self was using her jack-off finger to point at a real man.

The good news is that the world has a picture of him and his slut, hopefully their will to mock and heckle are put to the test in the coming weeks..

You're obviously not familiar with Lubbock and Sand Aggie fans. That guy will be a hero locally.

Sand Aggie fans are as bad as raider fans.

Yes, if that's in fact what he said (and I don't see how any reasonable person could actually believe that based on what we know).

Good. If people can't attend a game without insulting college athletes personally, they don't deserve to be there.

First of all, if you go to a game and call a player a piece of crap, you have established that you are a pretty lame. What sucks is Smart supposedly said the guy used the N word. That's bullshit. This guy's going to have Al Sharpton and Jesse all up in his ass.

If you really believe that inconclusive video constituted evidence of anything, I've got a bridge to sell you.
