Nobody there nor Brandon Miller himself apparently ever thought being 'patted down' during announcements might be a bad look….it took a social media outcry for them to stop doing that. mind boggling how poorly they have handled this simply from a PR standpoint alone.

And either a) Bama/Oats didn't know the detail about the gun in Miller's car until a few days ago when that became public, which means their player kept that to himself screwing them over (but since he is a star they can only say Thanks Brandon For Letting Us Get Surprised By That! ), or b) they knew but decided it was better to keep that on the low low for as long as possible and just let that become public eventually then react instead of trying to get ahead of the story.

Gimme Stephen A smith and Kellerman over Whitlock. I like guys that see racism in everything and just follow the mainstream narrative.

Maybe, I think he does the whole conservative black guy thing as a bit. He had no voice till he started pissing off black Americans.

Why do y'all want every black person to think exactly the same? You're pretending like Whitlock is less credible than any of the other sports reporters that have opposing views which is laughable. Hey, let's have another segment on Eric Beinemy or Kaepernick.

You can say he's playing up things for clicks. Guess what? 99% of the popular talking heads are but they all row in one direction.

Whitlock is an idiot. What does him being black have to do with anything?

He's an idiot? Compared to whom? What prominent opinion sports journalists would you say is not an idiot?

Him being black and occasionally saying negative things about blacks people is why he's hated so much by some and liked so much by others. It's completely relevant. See Candace Owens comment.

For the record, I generally don't GAF what most sports journalists think and I do think they're all idiots but I'm glad not everyone of them says the same stupid **** they Stephen A Smith or other espn woke idiots say otherwise we only get one sided propaganda. Which it obviously is.

Bomani Jones ****s on Whitlock when it comes to intelligence. Whitlock has brainworms, if you can't see that, I genuinely feel bad for you.

It's the "occasionally" part where this argument goes off track.

I watched it.

For the first 55 minutes or so, Whitlock presents a thorough, thoughtful, researched, pretty well reasoned examination of the currently known facts. He takes great pains to provide relevant context and draws on his own experiences. He presents a pretty powerful and more considered and patient counterpoint to Clay Travis firing off hot take tweets from the hip.

For 55 minutes Whitlock takes a grave and serious topic and does it justice

The last 10 minutes he starts to go down a road that ends up with him hawking a rally he's organizing to bring men back to God. There's a lot of good in being pro-two-parent households, pro-men proving their manhood by being positive, God-fearing fathers who take personal responsibility and lead their families well… as opposed to proving one's "manhood" by being "street tough". But the final 10 minutes left me feeling like he's trying to sell me something.

This whole think piece would've been better had he stopped it at 55 minutes.

Bomani Jones is a dip**** and an overt racist. Hilarious to think he's smart. A little embarrassed for you. Also, he hates A&M and like every other "educated" (read indoctrinated) dip**** he contorts all facts to fit his worldview.

Well, I don't consider either to be intellectual giants so whatever. You wanna slurp off a racist guy who hates A&M go for it. He doesn't run circles around anyone though. He's a paid talking head who sees racism in everything. It would be exhausting but it's big business and he's done well whining about it.

wow, this dude said bomani jones. forget the fact he unnecessarily hates on TAMU and is even quicker to pull the race card than stephen A. He's just not intelligent or objective in any way, shape or form. I've listened and watched a lot of bomani (unfortunately) over the years and I'm honestly shocked anyone that isn't a Lebron stan or a zealous God-hating far left leftist could walk away thinking that guy presented any value to the planet whatsoever.

I don't even know what to say to this clown. Jason Whitlock is not God's gift by any stretch, but I don't know if I know a single human being (aside from this poster) that would say bomani > whitlock. It must be Monday or something....good grief

DUH! Just like Jesus was. Same message.

The only part I can't go along with is that Whitlock is ready to blame culture on the event and not the individual. Until we get that part right, he's right, nothing is going to change.

There lots not to like (sarcasm) about Whitlock:

He's a black with conservative views.
He espouses Christianity.
He's a he.
He doesn't parrot the woke narrative.

This is the best?

Brandon Miller is a good kid but a victim of society? He brought a loaded gun to his friend that shot and killed a mom because that's his culture?

Never mentions Miller blocking the real victim's car with his car so that his friend could shoot her.

Whitlock, "the police were doing their job and know Miller is a good kid ... maybe the police are Alabama fans ... maybe"

I would guess Saban is not liking this because of the negative recruiting that will follow for his football team.

Bomani is clearly an intelligent individual. The inane drivel in posts like this makes me proud to be on the opposite side of most in this thread.

I agree with Whitlock's takes a fair amount of the time. I've also followed him for years and years. His most recent character change seemed conveniently timed with the political winds, he was studying Clay Travis' own character change and the lucrative success it was bringing him, and also because he was running out of traditional media options who wanted to deal with him.
