Your post is stupid. if you had read the thread you will see I was responding to another post. But you had to make an ass of your self.

Some one just said ban him. That is not cancel culture?
1) I don't believe you should be banned.
2) you haven't been banned
3) Even if you were banned, that would be "deplatforming" you. Not cancelling you.
Try again.

Here we go again. Some one clearly said time to ban him.
those are better examples than mine.
5 college football coaches with biggest COVID-19 pay reductions
Many college football coaches have agreed to pay cuts this year as schools face budget shortfalls, but these five are giving up the most.amp.usatoday.com
I think quite a few coaches took voluntary paycuts to help out during Covid
Tucker made the LSU 247 site’s hot board. Others include Luke Fickell, Lincoln Riley, Mario Cristobal, Jimbo Fisher, Billy Napier, James Franklin, Matt Campbell, Dave Aranda, Steve Sarkisian, Bill O’Brien, Chris Petersen, Lane Kiffin. Urban was mentioned as a footnote if he leaves Jax.
The Hot Board: LSU Coaching Search
Who will Scott Woodward turn to as LSU's 33rd head coach in the football program's history?247sports.com
I mentioned this in the carousel thread but reportedly LSU's first call will be to Lincoln Riley and their 2nd call will be to Brian Kelly. Doesn't mean either would say yes but they're going for a grand slam here.
Are you really so dumb that you don't understand that "ban from Allbuffs" does not mean "cancel?"
@Denver_sc is right. "Ban from Allbuffs" = "deplatform."
Take a lap. Then Google "deplatform." Then try again.

Some one clearly said time to ban him. The whole talk of whether deplatform is cancel culture or not is irrelevant or misdirection. I think most of my post comes across as trolling because It is insane to agree with grumpy old men. For example I am no longer upset with Mel Tucker. CU should priotize teaching young men over winning. Against firing a coach after 5 games into a season with a young freshman QB. You can call me a troll.

Meh. You are dumb argument.
You do realize that the discussion is "are you a troll, or are are you just dumb?"
If you get banned, the decision means you were evaluated as being a troll.
If you don't get banned, that means you were evaluated as being _______.
I'd be looking to get banned, but that's me.

nobody posted that, at least not ITT
somebody did question if it was time, but that post explicitly ended w/ a '?'
FWIW, I don't think the posts from this account have warranted a ban

Okay lol.
I am bored. Time to get back to football.
Football or being a father figure and raising men?

So......I laughed at this.....but felt sad about it!
Poor Johnny Depth
I never really got the Tucker hate. I can't blame a guy for going somewhere dedicated to winning for a bigger paycheck.
At first, I was pretty bitter because it felt like he was just chasing the money, which in and of itself is actually fine, but he proactively made the media rounds and told boosters the night before that he was committed to CU. On the surface, it looked like a really ****ty thing to do to the program that gave him his first head coaching opportunity.
Knowing more context around his departure has definitely changed my perspective

Okay. I’ve heard this and that regarding promises made and not delivered. I’d sure like to hear specifics and both sides of the story.
Umm. No. A 247 membership is a complete waste of time and money. No offense to Adam (who is great but the audience on that site is horrible).
thanks. in that case, I assume this is one of those things that somebody speculated once may be the case and subsequently many other posters took as fact.
Multiple posters here have stated over time that they've had contacts within the AD and have dropped pieces of information. On top of that, it's been mentioned by Adam and others on 247 that Tucker was very frustrated with the lack of admission leniency for a few recruits that Rick George allegedly told him would be more flexible. It's also been mentioned that he was supposedly toeing the line a bit with some of the recruiting practices, but that wasn't elaborated on.
Adam has straight out stated that some of the things Tucker was doing would not have worked long-term at CU. No further details on that, but I'm leaning more towards SEC style stuff than the salacious stuff.
Which is the depressing part because all it takes is administrative support and whatever he was doing would have been fine
