What most of you fail to realize is that all Burman most likely knew about the situation was basically what everyone else saw on the tv after the game and then probably talked to a couple of people who told them what they thought they might of heard.
He probably didn't realize it was as bad as it was until after the youtube video was put up by whoever it was that recorded it.
Infact when I saw the video for the first time last week when it popped up I was somewhat blown away by Christensen's reaction even though I had seen it on tv just couldn't hear what he was saying. I tried to explain it to my father on how bad it was and he didn't realize it was as bad as I had described it until after he actually watched the video for himself. So maybe something similar in Burmans case.
One other thing to note is that the video came out on what day? Maybe Wednesday or Thursday? So it was already past midweek and I imagine Burman decided to not disrupt any progress the team had for the upcoming game in Fresno on Saturday and figured he would reprimand Christensen on Monday after seeing the full video of just how bad it was.
I figured something more would come of this today just wasn't sure what.

After the video surfaced Ben Fredrickson asked Tom Burman about the video and he said he had seen it prior to making his statement on Monday or whenever the league punished him. So he knew exactly what had happened early last week. The tweets are out there but I can't get on twitter from this computer so I can't find them.

Okay. I did not know that. Well I guess Burman must have been hoping it didn't get out publicly but now that it did he must be feeling pressure from a number of Boosters and fans then.
He wasn't degrading the military though, he was degrading an asshat of a HC.djm19 said:What is compounding the problem x 100 is the military twist. No matter how much you "know" the whole context of calhoun being an A hole, it doesnt matter. Degrading the military is always looked down upon. This will follow him around like a dark cloud forever. Even if Calhoun comes out and "accepts his apology" it wont matter.

Do you think CDC could leave Laramie after this season on his own? Meaning resign? You have to think this situation may strain the relationship between Burman and CDC.
