Oklahoma State University head coach Mike Gundy is widely considered to be one of the best in college football. He’s a strong recruiter and excellent playcaller who has taken a small school in a small town and turned it into a perennial bowl contender. But he was called out by his star player in the offseason for something ridiculous. Instead of taking a stand against idiocy, he embraced it.
Heisman candidate Chuba Hubbard, the team’s amazing running back, called him out for wearing a T-shirt on a fishing trip that had the One America News logo on it. The “OAN” letters on his shirt are commonly seen on patriotic Americans’ clothing, especially since President Trump has mentioned them multiple times on Twitter and during press conferences. This didn’t sit well with Hubbard, who Tweeted, “I will not stand for this.”
I will not stand for this.. This is completely insensitive to everything going on in society, and it’s unacceptable. I will not be doing anything with Oklahoma State until things CHANGE. https://t.co/psxPn4Khoq

Instead of stating the obvious, that it’s just a darn T-shirt that is not associated with anything racist or offensive, Gundy played Hubbard’s racial justice game. He said he needed to make changes to the entire program based on a T-shirt in a fishing trip picture. Gundy has always been known as a “player’s coach,” but this is going way too far.
To make matters worse, the school announced harsh punishments for his T-shirt. Here’s the kicker: The punishments were self-recommended. He volunteered for the sake of the team to take a $1 million dollar pay cut and to lose a year on his contract, along with other penalties. I detailed why this is very, very bad in the latest episode of the NOQ Report Podcast, but here’s the gist…
With food shortages coming, it’s a smart move to order organic, cooked, freeze-dried chicken for long-term storage from Prepper Organics.
First and foremost, enough is never enough. Black Lives Matter and similar activists have demonstrated that no matter what a high-profile person or company does, they’ll continue to vilify them. Second, surrendering on this issue may seem like a noble move for the sake of the team, but it sets another precedent by which these unhinged activists can set the rules of their sordid game. Today, it’s an OAN logo on a T-Shirt. Yesterday, it was a MAGA hat. Tomorrow, it’s a message of “Jesus Saves” on a backpack. The madness will never end.
Mike Gundy has done a great disservice to the nation. It may not seem like a big deal (though $1 million dollars actually is a big deal to most), but when the Cultural Marxists get an inch, they try to take the whole field.

American Conservative Movement
Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 8000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
Covid variant BA.5 is spreading. It appears milder but much more contagious and evades natural immunity. Best to boost your immune system with new Z-Dtox and Z-Stack nutraceuticals from our dear friend, the late Dr. Vladimir Zelenko.
