I'm definitely not going to get a fic done for each prompt/day of Gort week 😭

I really wanted to, but I've stressed myself out trying so hard, so I think I'll stick with my 3 WIPs and the Kissing Booth fic (and of course try to boost my dumb Awaiting Further Instruction fic)

I think the Kissing Booth fic is going to take up a lot more time than I expected due to all the wonderful submissions, so if rather focus on that and put some more effort into it than I initially anticipated so everyone who submitted feels like their character was taken good care of (kind of important to me despite its just a meme fic haha)

I mean what did I really expect...the 40 chapter fic was supposed to be a one shot porn parody of the Secretary movie lol. I do this shit to myself 🥴😅

Unveiling Disparities: Is There a Double Standard for Women Coaches Vs. Men Coaches? Revisiting the Grambling Volleyball Coach’s Termination

In the realm of sports, the treatment of black women coaches vs men coaches often falls under the microscope. Their decisions have a profound impact on athletes’ careers. Recently, two high-profile coaching situations have thrust into the spotlight the issue of a double standard for black women coaches vs men coaches. The termination of the Grambling State University volleyball coach, Chelsey Lucas, as reported by ESPN, and the sweeping roster changes orchestrated by Coach Prime Deion Sanders at Colorado, as reported by USA Today, provide compelling examples of the gender disparities experienced by black women and men in coaching roles. As we delve into these cases, we’ll explore the intricate dynamics surrounding the double standard for black women coaches versus men coaches in the sports arena.

Chelsey Lucas: A Controversial Decision

Chelsey Lucas, a former Grambling State University volleyball player and 2006 SWAC Defensive Player of the Year, was appointed as the head coach of the Grambling State Tigers’ volleyball team in February 2022. However, her tenure was marred by controversy just months after her hiring. Lucas made the unprecedented decision to cut all 12 returning scholarship players from the team, a move that shocked and disappointed many players and fans alike.

Lucas defended her decision, citing NCAA rules that do not guarantee scholarships and argued that coaches have the power to make such changes to advance their programs. Grambling State’s initial support of Lucas’s decision only further fueled the debate. However, it’s essential to note that this decision led to an independent review of the allegations surrounding the program, leaving the situation unresolved.

Deion Sanders: A Roster Overhaul at Colorado

In contrast, Deion Sanders aka Coach Prime, the head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes football team, embarked on a radical roster overhaul in his first year in charge. Sanders, who took the helm after the team’s dismal 1-11 season, wasted no time in making significant changes. This overhaul led to at least 37 scholarship players entering the transfer portal, accounting for 83.5% of the team’s scholarship players.

Sanders justified his decision by comparing it to “cleaning out old furniture” to make room for new recruits. He brought in a substantial number of transfer players, creating a transfer class that ranked number one in the nation. What’s striking is the swiftness and scope of Sanders’ actions, with injured and returning players being shown the door.

The Double Standard Question

The stark difference in the treatment of Chelsey Lucas and Coach Prime in their coaching roles raises questions about whether there is a double standard for black women coaches as opposed to black men coaches. Lucas’s decision to cut scholarship players was met with scrutiny and an ongoing investigation, while Sanders’s massive roster overhaul was largely accepted as a necessary step to improve the team.

It’s important to acknowledge the complexities of each situation and the unique challenges faced by coaches in different sports. However, the contrasting responses to Lucas and Sanders suggest that Black women coaches may encounter more resistance and scrutiny when making bold decisions compared to their male counterparts.

Final Thoughts

The termination of Grambling volleyball coach Chelsey Lucas and the extensive restructuring of the roster under Coach Prime at Colorado stand out as compelling case studies in the realm of sports coaching. These situations, with their unique intricacies, highlight the imperative need for a fair and uniform assessment of coaching choices, irrespective of gender or race. It is essential for the sports community to persist in its pursuit of equitable treatment for all coaches, guaranteeing that opportunities and backing are distributed without bias, bridging the gap in sports coaching for black women compared to their male counterparts.

For when a Grumpus wanna give a post a Yeah!

Decided to take a break from what I was doing and make these for fun! It's mainly a twitter trend, but he, I didn't see anyone else do this yet, and thought I try to make it as authentic/ on theme with Bugsnax as a whole!

If you just wanted to save the images from here, that's fine, but I also uploaded them to a google drive folder (which is apart of grumpass emotes folder, have fun lol) that includes a slightly bigger sized version, and the smaller ones used here. So then nothing get lose in compression.
