Rick Majerus Can't Stay Out of Trouble

Rick Majerus is in hot water for his comments at a Hillary Clinton rally. He was interviewed by a local TV station and said that he is pro-choice. Problem is, St. Louis University is a Catholic school. School officials are considering taking action against Majerus. And even though I believe in free speech I actually think Majerus should have kept his opinion to himself. He certainly has the right to be pro-choice but the University also has a right to expect its employees, especially the ones who are public figures, to toe the line on "company policy."
Remember SLU is a private school so students who choose to go there most likely want a Catholic education and a faculty and staff who shares their beliefs.
The good news for Majerus is that this story overshadowed a much different story about him in Sports Illustrated.

The article tells this amusing story about Majerus teaching Michael Doleac the finer points of low post play.

"Doleac spent his first three years at Utah shell-shocked by Majerus's tirades, his knack for calling his players "cunts." Majerus kept telling Doleac that he needed to keep six inches between himself and his opponent in the post. When Doleac was caught shortly after leaning on his man, the coach erupted. " 'Jesus fuckin Christ, Doleac! When a guy catches the ball in the post, you gap him six inches!' " Doleac recalls Majerus yelling. "Then he turns to the guys sitting on the baseline and says, 'Six fuckin inches,' and he says, 'the size of the average white dick!' and pulls it out. That story spread like wildfire, but at the time it's not funny. At the time you're terrified."
