Haven't seen any audio posted yet, but it's being reported on socials that he "definitely said it"

Man you just never expect it from the 70 year white guys you absolutely expect it from.
A man who wears track suits to formal events, no less
That's honestly top 5 things I hope to take from him when I'm his age. Just go to weddings in a velour track suit.
Anti-Catholicism has a rather long and "storied" history in the U.S. --

Fun fact from that vein --
The first public education law in what would become the United States was the "Old Deluder Satan Law" passed by the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1642. In theory, the law saw to the public provision of education for the colony's youth but... was really to make sure those same youth learned Puritanism.
Which was about as far from Catholicism as you could get. So much so the Puritans moved to another continent to get away from Catholicism and its off-brand knockoff in the Church of England.
100%
This has to be the worst thing he has said during the 50 years he's been involved in the sport. If not, I would be astonished and appalled.
I actually laughed. I quit using that word awhile ago, but I guarantee every guy over the age of 30 on this board used it when they were younger, with no malice towards the LGBTQ community intended.
You can’t/shouldn’t use it these days, but not a fireable offense, IMO.

I'm over 30 and when I was in high school, a derivate of the word +got at the end was very popular among the guys in my high school. And it probably wasn't, though maybe sometimes, meant as a slight to the LGBTQ community (which didn't exist under that umbrella at the time) at least as far as I can recall. It was more like "Hey, do you want to go fishing with us after school? No? Ok, whatever f***ot!"
It's always the people you least expect, is what I would say if it wasn't the guy I most expected to say something like that.
So he meant to say “Catholic Cigarettes”?
I love how hard Trevman simps for every old white guy who does something dumb.
Watch a comedy from the early aughts and it’s wild how casually being gay was used as a punch line in the not so distant past.
There’s a whole South Park episode about this phenomenon
While you are right to an extent here, that word in particular was viewed as pretty offensive even while I was in high school (I think we're similar ages).
I pretty sure that's still a pretty standard word for most high school boys. Right or wrong I don't see any planet where Huggins gets the boot for saying this.

It's definitely true. That word was definitely part of the lexicon in the late 90s and early 2000's.
