Smart was suspended for three games and said “I take responsibility. This is not me.” Oklahoma St. coach Travis Ford said “He make a mistake, a mistake he’s going to pay for, not just in a 3-game suspension.”
Texas Tech “superfan” and the man in the middle of the investigation, Jeff Orr volunteered not to attend any more home or away Texas Tech games this year.
Orr also revealed what he said:
“My actions last night were inappropriate … I regret calling Mr. Smart a “piece of crap.”
Jeff Orr also said in the statement that he denies using a racial slur to Marcus Smart.
