Video: ESPN's coverage of the Nebraska State wrestlers Fratmen controversy


This past weekend ESPN's Outside the Lines ran an in-depth segment on the two Nebraska State wrestlers who were dismissed from their team after appearing nude (and in ... um ... action?) on a gay porn website.

The piece (much like the wrestlers themselves) is actually rather blasé about the "gay" element, and focuses mostly on the fact that the guys had a long history of run-ins with the disciplinary board for things like selling iPods given to them by the athletics committee and fighting.

Both guys maintain that there's a double-standard and that the dismissal was directly related to the nude modeling, which was simply something that the coaches could not cover up, unlike many things that other wrestlers had gotten away with without disciplinary action. And really, considering the other shady stuff that's clearly going on off the mat, I'm inclined to agree with them.
