You are watching KU basketball on ESPN.Viewer discretion advised.Several times during the telecast of Monday night’s win over Missouri, you could hear Jayhawk fans using language that would make Chris Rock blush.”F– Missouri,” the student section roared, sandwiching the chant around its rhythmic claps. “F– Missouri.”But the sophomoric behavior didn’t stop there even if it should have.In case the students forgot the chant, they just had to look down at their identical “Muck Fizzou” t-shirts. And poor officiating is no longer just poor officiating. It’s now for lack of a better word “bull chips,” according to the student section in Allen Fieldhouse.Phog Allen would be so proud. ![][1]There’s a fine line between clever and offensive, and KU basketball fans have crossed it. Families are better off watching the game on mute. No longer are Jayhawk fans educated ambassadors of college basketball. Now, they just sound like monster truck fans hanging out in a trailer park.I’m not opposed to vulgarity. In fact, I have it down to an art form, carefully constructing cuss-filled rants, like Michelangelo painting the Sistine Chapel.But there’s a time and place for everything. On national television, against a team with a 2-6 conference record, is certainly not one of those times.The Jayhawk fans’ vulgarity seeps with irony. For years, it was our neighbors to the east with the foul mouths and vicious taunts.How dare they prank call the coach? Now, it seems tame in comparison.Two years ago, Ricky Clemons (whose picture now accompanies this blog) made his first and only appearance at Allen Fieldhouse. Just weeks earlier, Clemons was arrested of [choking his girlfriend,][2] and the Fieldhouse fans were in rare form.The second the game started (which was also shown on ESPN), the students started chanting “woman beater” at Clemons. There was even a woman in the front row in bandages, dressed to look like Clemons’ victim.The former coach was infuriated at the chant, and immediately silenced the students.The current coach either can’t hear the chants, or, perhaps, doesn’t care.But the people who should care the most the students don’t.Allen Fieldhouse is now just like every other arena in the Big 12 Conference, along side Mizzou Arena “M-I-Z-F-K-U,” and the Coors Events Center, “F-’em up, F-’em up, Go CU!”The students at Allen Fieldhouse are stooping to the level of conference afterthoughts.KU Basketball: For Mature Audiences Only.
