Oklahoma State football had quite the week.
The head coach photographed in a controversial shirt. The star tailback outraged to the point of boycotting all OSU-related activities. The support of dozens of teammates that smacked of a player revolt.
And that was just Monday afternoon.
Meetings and videos and apologies would follow. So, too, would a Colorado standout from long ago saying that same head coach had called him the N-word during a game back when he was OSU’s quarterback.
It was a bad week for the brand.
