Coach fired for racial slurs gets players’ backing
DETROIT (Al’J — A group of black
Conlral Mu lligan baskutlkill players said
Tuesday they nave joined a lawsuit filed
by their former coach, who was fired for
using a racial slur in front of the team
The university fired Keith Dnmbrot last
week for telling his players 'I wish we
had more niggers on this team’ after they
lost a game last season. He also said
"Mac's a nigger" in reference to assistant
i each Derrick McDowell
Dambrot. who is white, says he had an
understanding with Ins team about the
word, which the team used to connote
toughness and tenacity.
Dambrot filed a lawsuit Monday in
U S District Court in Bay City alleging
the school violated his right to free
speei h II*' is seeking damages, reinstate
ment as i oach and a preliminary injuiu
lion to reverse the luring of new i on< h
Leonard Drake at the school in Mount
Pleasant.
Freshman guard Keith Gilmore said he
and eight other players decided to join
the suit because they felt Dambrot had
lieen treated unfairly.
"All the people who said he should be
fired, they weren’t there when he said it
They don't understand the situation.'
Gilmore. 19. said Tuesday. "It was a bad
choice of words, but you had to be there
to understand it."
Gilmore said neither he nor any of the
other players who were there were
offended hv Dambrot's remarks
The university originally suspended
Dambrot without pay for four days, then
fired him after n hostile public reaction
School spokeswoman Kae Goldsmith said
Dambrot was fired because the program
couldn't "survive under his leadership."
Goldsmith said Tuesday the students
may have joined the suit because they
were worrier! about losing playing time or
their scholarships under a new coach.
. Gilmore denied the players were wor
ried about themselves "We did it out of
concern for our coach and what we think
is right." he said
James Schuster. Dambrot's lawyer, said
the university' has harmed the players as
well as his client
"A new coac h may not elect tp retain
them on the team." Schuster said. "They
are also put in fear of being able to freely
speak, and they've been associated with
i oat h Dambrot and they fear they might
get what he got. punishment for their
speech "
The other players who joined the suit
are: LaKeith Boyd. Uionard Bush. Man us
Culbreth. DeShanti Foreman. Tyrone
‘All the people who said
he should be fired, they
weren't there when he
eakl It. They don't
understand the
situation/
- Keith Gilmore,
freshman guard
Hicks. Amere May. Torrey Mills and
Mario Patterson.
A hearing on the motion to prevent the
school from hiring a new coach was
scheduled for April 30 before Judge
