In a series of tweets, Mississippi State coach Rick Stansbury says his comments about UK junior Twany Beckham were taken out of context and that he called his former MSU player to clear things up.
- I’d like to clear up the comments I made earlier today about Twany Beckham. First off, they were taken out of context.
- I’ve never said anything negative about a player, nor will I. Again, those comments were taken out of context.
- Earlier tonight, I called Twany &had a great conversation with him. He’s a great kid & I would never say anything to hurt or embarrass him.
- I wish him nothing but the best.
Stansbury reportedly made the Beckham remarks at the start of his press conference, normally when he jokes with reporters, thinking they were off-the-record.
Cats may still lose (hey, they’re 18 year olds and stuff happens) but I hope they put a complete BEATDOWN on state and stansbury.
stansbury doesn’t make that joke if he’s not thinking it already. Go Big Blue!
