Do you remember the name Gordon Gee?
Years ago while the president at Ohio State, Gee was pressured away from his post for making slanderous comments about Catholics, Notre Dame and the Polish.
Gee is drawing the headlines again, but at least this time it’s not another act of bigotry. No, now working as the president at West Virginia University, Gee is offering to suit up in order to make sure college football is played this fall.
“We are going to play football in the fall, I really do believe that,” Gee said to WOWK-TV. “Even if I have to suit up!”
For the record, Gee is 76 years old. He went on to say that they’ll play football, based on it being safe and healthy for fans and student-athletes.
“But I do believe that we will play football” Gee added.
Alright, sign me up for college football being played this fall and Gee suiting up.
And then please get Jack Swarbrick to get West Virginia on the schedule immediately.
