Golden Gophers’ Kevin Dorsey Suspended After Threesome Video Gets Posted On Twitter

Minnesota Golden Gophers suspended three players for their upcoming game Sunday against Illinois. Kevin Dorsey & starters Nate Mason and Dupree McBrayer were suspended for violating team rules.

The rules in question happened after Dorsey – or someone- posted two videos to his twitter account. The videos reportedly contained Dorsey involved in a threesome. Dorsey deleted his entire account a short time after the videos were posted. According to reports, the videos were extremely graphic:

In the two videos, two guys were double teaming a girl from the front and behind. In the second video, there was a different girl and Dorsey was taking the front while the other guy was doing her from behind. You could clearly see his face although he is the only one that I could see. 

Head coach Richard Pitino released a statement but didn’t go into detail regarding the circumstances that led to the suspensions:

With the privilege of being a member of the University of Minnesota basketball program there are expectations and standards to which we hold our student-athletes accountable, and they have failed to do so.

Obviously, culture and doing what’s right is extremely important to myself, our staff and our players. I wake up every day, and I’m extremely grateful for the opportunity that I have to coach in an awesome basketball conference and to coach in a place where I consider my dream job. We’re going to do things the right way. Tonight wasn’t about wins and losses, it was about making sure our guys understand that this thing is bigger than just basketball. And we’re going to do what we believe is right. Unfortunately you may lose the battle, but you’re going to win the war. Today was unfortunately not as much about wins and losses but about the culture of our program. That’s something we work at every single day. And it’s extremely important to what we’re all about.”
