"Kansas State basketball coach Jerome Tang went off on his team for their lack of character to which Tony Kornheiser and Mike Wilbon responded by making Coach Tang the bad guy for holding his team to a standard. This is a broad issue in college athletics in the NIL era. These guys cant be treated like kids while also getting paid millions of dollarsthat is not how the real world works. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022453866667647136 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022453866667647136"
