After an internal investigation they lopped $1m/year and 1 year, off his contract.
Very expensive tshirt, but I’m sure he’ll survive.

Gundy is a p*ssy, as identified by a friend/ business associate of mine that lives in Oklahoma. Most of the fan base there wants him gone, not because of a t-shirt he wore, but because of his gutless defense of wearing said t-shirt. OAN is no different than CNN, just on the other side of the spectrum.
How funny it is you want all of us posters to avoid politics - then inject it into the discussion. What does Gundy, Oklahoma State, or their head scratching punishment have to do with Beaver Sports? What, they both use OSU as their acronym? I hope Gundy sues the university for millions of dollars for violating his first amendment and civil rights - you know, the ones the antifa thugs and BLM protesters are hiding behind?
Either you believe in free speech and freedom of expression for everyone - or you don't. You, nor OSU (Oklahoma State) get to choose who gets certain rights, and who doesn't. And regardless of what you may think of the OAN network, they are a legal choice for a portion of the populace to watch, and is really none of your business, or anyone else's. The hypocrisy on display here is stunning.

The world is in deep trouble when someone with enough intelligence to function on his / her own says a right wing conspiracy network is equal to the network that says we need to listen to the scientific evidence.

Actually, Glove didn't inject politics into the discussion with his first two posts...you did. I looked back at the original thread about Gundy and the Okla St football player who wanted to quit because of the t-shirt Gundy was wearing. Yeah, the football player turned the tshirt into a political statement but the thread itself only got political in the sense that there was a mild discussion over whether 1st Amendment rights to free speech were violated by only government actors or, in addition, private actors. What does that have to do with Oregon State football? This: A program that we are going to play this fall (or, at least, we hope to) was having issues with its players and head coach and now Glove has poster what is likely to be the last significant major media story about it: the coach had to take a cut. So now we know that there are no suspensions, no firings, no resignations. The last we are likely to see of anything over there that MIGHT get political is if an Okla St player leaves and tells the media that he thinks Gundy runs a racist program or something like that. So lighten up! Glove posted about an opposing team on our schedule that had/has internal conflicts that could have affected their team and thus the outcome our game with them. You are so sensitive to potential criticism of your political views that you took a mild post as an attack. But worse, you have opened the door for people going after your political views and you boldly announced them on your post. Frankly, you deserve what is likely coming...

Wow, they settled a lawsuit. Nobody admitted to or apologized for anything and the figure, if any, was not disclosed. The kid and his lawyers got a check to go away.

He probably is going to get paid off by several more networks by the time this is done. Last I heard, he had seven others besides the CNN lawsuit. CNN seemed to get spooked by the October 2019 ruling in the Washington Post lawsuit opening up discovery.

This will be rich. 1. OSU is our first opponent this coming season. And fair game discussion topic, especially during the off season 2. You are the one that injected politics. Settle the f%#* down.

We can have a new rivalry. The Great Land Rush. Oklahoma had theirs. The Oregon Trail, albeit over several years and then the running backs will hope to have one.

But worse, you have opened the door for people going after your political views and you boldly announced them on your post. Frankly, you deserve what is likely coming... Actually, no, I am very comfortable in my own skin. I have nothing to (politically) to apologize for. I did not take the post as an attack, certainly not as an attack on me. The implication came across as a bit sarcastic and cavalier - Gundy can afford it.
And yes, as always, I appreciate the alternate point of view. I agree I let my frustration with the other OSU for punishing a coach that seemingly did doing nothing wrong, a coach totally within his rights, bleed over to Glove - fair point. Another consideration, I suspect the university may have found other evidence that led to the pay cut. We may never know.
It is a sad day, when any coach has to apologize, and then have his pay docked, because of an innocuous t-shirt. I think it is the overly sensitive snowflakes that complained about it in the first place that need to lighten up. I also was responding to the notion that just because he is a coach with a contract, that he can afford the "haircut" - meaning cut in pay. Rather cavalier attitude by someone who has not walked a mile in his shoes, so to speak. And yes, I may have come on a bit too strong on my response. My bad.
