Saturday night, the African-American players on Missouri’s football team announced that they would not participate in football-related activities until university president Tim Wolfe leaves or is ousted, in the wake of a string of racist incidents on campus. The above tweet comes from John Gibson III, a junior defensive back on the team. Expect this story to receive considerable attention until its resolution. Some of the takes that emerge from the punditocracy, and public at-large, are sure to be delightful.
