Posters Around Yale Campus Accuse Yale Basketball Captain of Being Rapist

Yale Men's Basketball Controversy

Instagram @MattKGreene

While the Yale Bulldogs Men’s Basketball team currently sits #1 atop the Ivy League standings, their players are caught up in the middle of a controversy involving their former captain Jack Montague, and accusations of rape.

This morning, Jezebel wrote an article about various posters reading “I STAND WITH YALE WOMEN | END RAPE CULTURE | DON’T SUPPORT RAPISTS” and “YALE MEN’S BASKETBALL | STOP SUPPORTING A RAPIST” that had been placed around various bulletin boards and message boards around campus.

You can see a photo of some of the posters below:

These posters were taken down almost immediately by (Jezebel claims) members of the men’s basketball team. So what exactly are these posters talking about and why are the players defending their captain? Let’s dig a bit deeper.


 

Who Is Jack Montague?

Jack Montague is a senior and former captain of the Yale Bulldogs Men’s Basketball team. He wears the #4 and is nicknamed “Gucci.” Last week it was announced that he had withdrawn from Yale. He had missed four games previously, starting on February 12th. Initially at the time of his absence, the team claimed it was because of a “personal matter.” Then when he finally withdrew, no official reasons were given even as to why Jack had withdrawn. The sharpshooter was scheduled to graduate in May.

While no official statement had been made, some Yale students have commented on various articles relevant to the topic that the campus has been aware for some time now as to the real reason.


 

The Team’s Response

The team’s response to Jack’s disappearance has been largely in support of their former captain. Last week, during their huge game against Harvard, the remaining Bulldogs team all wore shirts that read “Gucci #4” on the back and “ELAY” on the front (“Yale” spelled backwards).

You can see a photo of those shirts, which we believe was originally published in the Yale Daily News, at the top of the article. Here’s another picture of those shirts during the team’s warmups.

The inclusion of the name “Gucci” and “#4” are self-explanatory, but why spell Yale backwards? Forward Justin Sears ’16 explained to the Yale Daily News like this:

“‘Yale’ spelled backwards wasn’t to make a statement. It’s just because Yale is a brand and there was a copyright. It was just convenient, at the last minute. Everyone on the team supported it and wanted to show our support for Jack.”

The explanation of why they’d spell “Yale” backwards seems pretty solid to us. They knew they were entering an area of grey, so they wanted to cover themselves as much as possible.

Jezebel reports that there is a strong possibility that the team will stage a walkout during their game against Columbia on March 5th.

The Bulldogs are only half a game ahead of Princeton and have the opportunity to make their first NCAA March Madness appearance since 1962.


 

The Administration’s Response

Understandably, Yale’s administration hasn’t said much about the incident. Justin Sears did mention to the Yale Daily News that neither the team’s coaches nor the athletic director had any say in the team’s decision to wear the shirts. That being said, the Harvard game was the one and only time they donned the shirts.

Jack Montague, the former Yale Bulldogs Men’s Basketball team captain, has withdrawn from the school under mysterious circumstances. Some on the campus have voiced their concerns that they believe Jack to be a rapist.

It’s important to state that at the time this article was published, there is no evidence pointing to the fact that Jack has been involved in anything. That being said, it definitely seems as though some Yale students aren’t waiting for a court case’s decision to start taking sides.

Stephen A. Smith Tells South Alabama Students “Racism Doesn’t Exist For Them”

Stephen A Smith University of South Alabama

Stephen A. Smith, arguably the most hated man in the world of professional sports, was paid money to talk to students at the University of South Alabama on February 29th.

During a speech about the state of race relations in the USA, he then proceeded to tell them that “racism doesn’t exist for them.” Read the full quote below:

“Racism doesn’t exist. Obviously, I’m lying. Of course it exists, but not for you. See, you don’t have to go to the back of the bus. You’re not denied the opportunity to eat at restaurants, or to enter night clubs, or to patronize businesses. You have the right to vote. You’re not being lynched. You’re not being hung,” Smith said, according to USA’s student newspaper, The Vanguard which recorded the speech.

“You’re older, you know I’m not talking about you. But youngsters, you need to understand that white folks got problems, too. Some of them can’t pay their bills. Some of them are struggling. Some of them are being denied opportunities. And you need to understand that, because when people are going through their own problems, they are not going to lament what your trials and tribulations are.”

Stephen A. Smith is paid to say bombastic things on ESPN’s controversial show First Take because that’s what makes them the most watched show on ESPN. But this isn’t First Take. These are young people.

Racism definitely still exists in America. Just look at who’s going to be the Republican nominee.

“Bro, you forgot leg day again.”

“Extra hand too.”

“Why does your daughter have 3 hands though?”

“Yeah, pink shirt looks like a third hand. Lots of things going on – it’s like an Escher drawing.”

“At first glance, it looks like she’s dressed in colonial clothes.”

“Looks exactly like an old soviet school uniform.”

“Don’t worry, it’s definitely blue and black.”

When you know that you’re about to get into a fight, it’s generally a good idea to remove accessories and articles of clothing that can be used against you. After getting my face smashed in by some dude who realized my glasses were a weakness of mine, I now realize I should have taken them off immediately.

But this chick? This chick in this daycare parking lot fight video? This chick knows how to throw fisticuffs. Watch as she instinctively removes her wig from her head knowing that it’s about to go down. Smart move, lady.

Super Tuesday lived up to its name this week, not because of the election polls, but because we got to hang out with rapper/DJ Lil Jon and Bar Rescue host Jon Taffer.

It’s not every day that shows reach 100 episodes, but Spike TV has made it look easy. Premiering in 2011, the creators of Bar Rescue came up with the perfect recipe for success- bring in renowned food and beverage consultant, Jon Taffer, have him yell at bar owners to get their act together, and ultimately prevent the establishment from closing. Overall, only 29 of 97 bars thus far have shut down and two have been sold.

To celebrate, we hit up STK in midtown Manhattan where we sipped on delicious cocktails from Crown Royal, Captain Morgan, Smirnoff and Ciroc and munched on yummy appetizers like risotto balls and spicy shrimp.

Fortunately for the oh-so-swanky STK, they didn’t need any rescuing. Instead, DJ Sinatra and Lil Jon provided guests with music throughout the night and the President of Spike TV, Kevin Kay congratulated Taffer and his team with a champagne toast.

If you’re upset you weren’t invited to the event, don’t be. Luckily for you, we’re nice enough to provide you with one of the awesome recipes to try at home. You’re all welcome.

Bianca Ghezzi is getting into the spotlight after reportedly hooking up with failed football player Johnny Manziel. The man may have royally f*cked up his career, but at least he still has game, and this Instagram model is an awesome prize.

The FSU graduate recently posted a video of herself in Manziel’s bed wearing pretty much nothing. The message there is clear: dude got laid. Guess there needs to be something to keep his mind off that upcoming trial of his. The former Browns QB stands accused of assaulting his ex-girlfriend Colleen Crowley, which you think would be pretty traumatic.

Luckily Ghezzi is more than willing to dry his tears (wink, wink).

Detroit Republican Debate 2016: Date, Time, TV Channel & Live Stream

Michael Ciaglo-Pool|Getty Images

Tonight, the latest GOP Debate will be aired from Detroit, Michigan, at the Fox Theater. The 2016 election season is getting more and more fired up, as we begin to find out more of an idea of who people are thinking about voting for. The debate, hosted by Wolf Blitzer, looks to be an important one, with Donald Trump getting more and more of a significant lead after Super Tuesday this week.

There are many factors that are sure to spark fires tonight during the debate, one being that the location of the debate is only about 75 miles from Flint, Michigan, where a current water crisis has been going on; it’s a topic that will definitely be unavoidable for all candidates.

Although many voters aren’t happy about the fact, after Super Tuesday, Trump showed significant movement in the polls, winning every state involved, except for one that Rubio managed to overtake.

Candidate John Kasich will also be a pivotal person to be debating tonight, as with each debate and primary, he is getting further and further behind the other candidates. While there is still time for him to make a comeback, it’ll have to be a strong one, more likely sooner rather than later.

Here’s what you need to know to tune in:

The Violent Femmes new album stream

 

The Violent FemmesWe Can Do Anything hits stores today after an incredibly long break since their last record, Freak Magnet (seriously, that’s how long it’s been. It was a record).

We Can Do Anything even includes some updated classic material: unreleased B-sides and demos like “Memory” were actually pulled out of The Violent Femmes’ archives.

Fans waited a long time for We Can Do Anything. Not a high school dance goes by without the Violent Femmes’ “Blister in the Sun” being played, but it’s been 15 years since Freak Magnet. That’s enough time for all those high schoolers to lose their virginity at prom, freak out when they realize they’re pregnant, raise their kid on Violent Femmes songs, and send them to prom to begin the cycle anew: all before We Can Do Anything even comes out.

Fortunately, that wait is over, and to listen to We Can Do Anything you’ve got a lot of options (unlike your teen parents who sacrificed so much so you could have these first-wave punk albums).

2007

Conor McGregor Net Worth 2007

On February  17 , 2007, at the age of 18, McGregor made his mixed martial arts debut, in an amateur fight against Ciaran Campbell for the Irish Ring of Truth promotion in Dublin. He was victorious via technical knockout (TKO) in the first round. Following the fight, he turned professional and was signed by the Irish Cage of Truth promotion.


2008-2011

In 2008, he began training at the Straight Blast Gym in Dublin under John Kavanagh.

On March 9, 2008, aged 19, McGregor made his professional MMA debut at Cage of Truth 2, defeating Gary Morris with a second-round TKO.

Beginning in 2011, McGregor started an undefeated streak of 14 wins, consisting of one judges’ decision, one submission and twelve knockouts/technical knockouts (nine occurring in the first round). During this period McGregor produced one of the fastest recorded knockouts in MMA, ending a fight in four seconds at Immortal Fighting Championship in Letterkenny, Ireland.

The UFC’s president Dana White traveled to Dublin in early February 2013 to receive a Gold Medal of Honorary Patronage from Trinity College’s Philosophical Society and was inundated with requests to sign McGregor. The two later met in Dublin and White was so impressed with what he saw that he contacted UFC CEO Lorenzo Fertitta and they subsequently offered McGregor a contract days later.

In February 2013, the UFC announced that they had signed McGregor to a multi-fight contract. In joining, McGregor became only the second fighter from Ireland to compete for the company, following fellow SBG fighter Tom Egan.

On April  6, 2013, McGregor made his UFC debut against Marcus Brimage on the preliminary card of UFC on Fuel TV: Mousasi vs. Latifi.He was successful in his first bout, winning via TKO just over a minute into the first round. The win also earned McGregor his first Knockout of the Night Award.

McGregor was expected to face Andy Ogle on August 17, 2013 at UFC Fight Night 26 but Ogle pulled out of the bout citing an injury and was replaced by Max Holloway. McGregor won the fight by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-26).

Unofficial Saint Paddy’s Day 2016 At UIUC Has Already Begun

Unofficial Saint Paddy's Day

One of the largest college parties of the year has already begun this morning. It’s called “Unofficial” and at this very moment, students at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign are already four or five green beers deep. They’re not the #1 party school in the nation for nuthin.

The debauchery is such a big deal to the school that there’s an actual history of the day hosted on the archives of the University of Illinois. Here’s the long and short of it:

In the spring of 1995, local bar owners were presented with a problem by the University’s academic calendar. Traditionally, St. Patrick’s Day (March 17) is celebrated by sociable young adult Americans with a visit to a local pub or tavern. However, in March 1995, the 17th fell during the University of Illinois Spring Break. University students and staff, the primary clientele of campustown bars, would not be anywhere near campus on what is presumably a very profitable day for bar owners. Not content to let the popular celebration slip away from them, local businesses organized an alternative event: the “Shamrock Stagger,” scheduled for Wednesday, March 8th, 1995, two days before U of I’s Spring Break [source].

Obviously things have changed a bit here and there, but the one thing that’s remained constant is the student’s participation in the festivities.

Sadly that also means that there are also more police who are working. One friendly whistleblower on Reddit announced that as many as 250 extra policemen will be working. According to that same redditor, 75%-80% of people who are issued citations are visiting from schools, so just be careful.

We’ll update this post with great photos and videos as they start to emerge. And remember to tag us in pictures or videos with @COED.

Lilla Frederick Hottest Photos

Courtesy of our friends at BustedCoverage, we just learned that Lilla Frederick is now engaged to ex-NBA All-Star and current Canadian badass Steve Nash. Lilla herself is quite the athlete. She used to dominate women’s sand volleyball for the Pepperdine Waves, and now she’s moved onto the professional circuit. Hell, she’s still even a member of the United States Olympic Committee.

Lilla has been in and around volleyball all her life, having grown up in Huntington Beach, California. Where she met Steve we have no idea but it could have been during his stint with the Lakers.

Either way, Steve’s still got the great vision that made him an MVP.


Cops Crash Massive Frat Party, Issuing Over 100 Citations for Underage Drinking

0

You know it’s a good party if the cops show up, but what does it when they go on to issue over one hundred citations for underage drinking? That’s what happened at an off-campus frat house party in Bethesda, Maryland and it will certainly go down in American University history as part legend, part cautionary tale.

On Jan. 15 at roughly 12:30 a.m., police were called to Walhonding Road by reports of a noise disturbance at the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity house there. When they pulled up, it was to a scene right out of a college movie: the yard was filled with about 20 party-goers, watching as two struggled to carry a very drunk 18-year-old girl into a waiting Uber. They were trying to get her the hospital to be treated for alcohol poisoning without drawing the attention of local authorities.

Oops.

The police promptly called for backup. Inside, they discovered 200 partygoers just on the first floor with another 50 to 75 people in the garage.

According to WUSA 9 News, the house was completely trashed, “with beer seeping through the ceiling into the basement…The house was so packed, investigators estimated the air temperature to be 100 degrees. And the alcohol was so abundant, a preliminary breath test registered .09, just in the ambient air. That’s above the legal level of intoxication for a Maryland driver.”

The reaction to the cops making an entrance was exactly what you’d expect from a bunch of scared, inebriated college students: they panicked.

“Officers located a number of teenagers hiding in bedrooms and closets; some went so far as attempting to exit the home through a second story window,” reported ABC7 News. “Another contingent of partiers barricaded the front door in attempt to block police from entering the home.”

It ended up taking 30 police officers from five of Montgomery County’s six police districts to end the madness. At one opint, Jamieson Tymann, the president of Pi Kappa Alpha, punched an officer. That officer’s face required stitches while Tymann is facing charges of second degree assault and resisting arrest.

The house is leased to 22-year-old student Tyler Steinhardt. He charged with 110 counts of providing alcohol to minors. However, this is not a criminal offense in the state of Maryland, so Steinhardt is only being charged with civil offenses. Still, he’s being slapped with fines up to $2,500 per underage partygoer, though it’s unlikely that he’ll have to pay the full amount.

So far, Kendrick Lamar has had a busy year, between being nominated for 11 Grammy Awards, and with an estimated net worth of $18 million, has become quite the successful rapper. Not only that, but he has been involved with longtime girlfriend and now fiancee Whitney Alford. But good news for you, we’ve got all the scoop on her!


Who is Whitney Alford?

Whitney Alford is the current fiancee to Kendrick Lamar. When asked about her in interviews, Lamar states “I wouldn’t even call her my girl. That’s my best friend. I don’t even like the term that society has put in the world as far as being a companion — she’s somebody I can tell my fears to.” The pair haven’t been in public together all too often, but she has been his date to a few events over the years. According to an interview with the Times, has no problem “sassing” Kendrick. In the story, she jokingly calls him out for being “cheap.” Despite their joking around, the couple appears to be very happy together.

Jacob Pauda mugshot GIF

Jacob Pauda, a man with a history of criminal activity, was recently found guilty of attacking his pregnant girlfriend with a butcher knife. While he was high on cocaine. While his girlfriend was on the phone with her mother.

Believe it or not, while you might not know this man by name, you probably know him by his face. Which is strange because you probably don’t know many people capable of that kind of violence.

You see in addition to doing jail time, Jacob has a fascination with inking up his face. Over the past few years he’s added than just 9 arrests to his record, he’s also added some of the scariest tattoos to his face we’ve ever seen ever. But it didn’t just happen all at once. It was a process.

Thanks to combination effort between Esquire (who found all of Jacob’s mugshots) and BroBible (who made them into a GIF), we now have this absolutely insane evolution.

Jacob Anderson Baylor Arrest Info Facts Details

Jacob Anderson, a college student and president of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity chapter at Baylor University was arrested Thursday after turning himself in to police. He is being charged with the sexual assault of a female student outside of a frat party.

Jacob Walter Anderson is a 21-year-old finance major at Baylor.

“This is a heck of a time to be accused of sexual assault, especially at Baylor University, with Baylor’s history with not being truthful with what’s going on,” said Anderson’s defense attorney, Clyde Chandler. “I am going to meet with the family and we are going to plan our strategy because this is, of course, serious. Serious to everyone involved, not just my client, because we have to get this right.”

Baylor University’s History of Assault:

Anderson’s arrest comes on the heels of recent scandal, where college officials were criticized for failing to properly respond to a series of rape and sexual assault reports on campus.

It concerned Tevin Elliot, a former defensive end on the school’s football team, who was accused of sex crimes against five women from October 2009 to April 2012. Elliot was eventually convicted in January 2014 and is currently in jail, serving a 20-year sentence.

According to an ESPN report, there have been many similar cases “in which school officials either failed to investigate, or adequately investigate, allegations of sexual violence. In many cases, officials did not provide support to those who reported assaults.”


What Happened:

Now, back to the Anderson case. According to the female student, the alleged assault took place on Saturday, Feb. 20 at a fraternity house in South Waco.

“She said she was handed a drink of some kind of punch and was told, ‘Here you go. Drink this,’” Waco police Sgt. W. Patrick Swanton told The Waco Tribune-Herald. “She said shortly after that she became very disoriented, was taken outside by our suspect, who is Jacob Walter Anderson, and she said when they got outside, Anderson forcibly sexually assaulted her.”

The female student says she passed out, but, after she came around, made her way back into the party, found a friend, and asked of help. She was taken to Baylor Scott & White Hillcrest Medical Center where, after a sexual assault exam was concluded, the medical staff notified the police that an assault had been committed.

Almost two weeks later, Anderson turned himself over to police. After a very brief stint in jail, he was released that same evening following the posting of a $50,000 bond.

Fraternity Response:

The Phi Delta Theta fraternity has recently released a statement about the incident. It reads:

Leinenkugel Brewing Company’s Summer Shandy is What’s on Tap!

Leinenkugel Summer Shandy

As summer gets close you will notice more and more summer beers hitting the shelves. These beers will be lower in ABV, so you can drink all day, and packed with citrusy flavors. The style of beer that is on tap for this weekend is one that is growing in popularity and one that is perfect for the summer. This weekend Leinenkugel Brewing Company’s Summer Shady is What’s on Tap!

A shady is a very popular style of beer, especially in Europe, that is mixed with another type of soft drink, think soda, or even juice. Typically the “base beer” is a wheat beer or, as the Germans call it, weiss beer and then the juice is added. This style and drink is rapidly growing in the US thanks to Jacob Leinenkugel’s line of Shandies. Brewed with natural lemonade Summer Shandy is becoming a staple for Leinenkugel; undoubtedly you have seen someone drinking one at a tailgate, pool, or on the beach.

The trick to a shandy is maintaining the beer / juice balance. With Summer Shandy the lemon that is dominates in the aroma is balanced nicely within the beer’s wheaty flavor. It also can be difficult to manage and balance the tartness of the citrus, which if not done properly will turn drinkers away. As you drink this Shandy you will get some, very little, hoppy and earthy flavor which is off-set nicely by the shandy’s finishing malty sweetness. Throughout each sip you will notice a subtle sweetness, I get a lot of honey, to balance the natural lemon juice.

So this weekend, as you dream of Spring Break, warm weather and summer crack open a Summer Shandy!

Cheers!
