A Morehouse spokesman says the school “cannot condone, by implication or by implication, the recent divisive and counterproductive statements by E, formerly known as Kanye West.”
Of course, Morehouse’s decision will not sit well with the Celtics star. Jaylen Brownwho has publicly advocated against Donda hoops players who were hurt because of Kanye’s words.
Our young people need our support more than ever, if you can come see us on November 6 @Morehouse at 7:30 p.m. and show love and support to these young people. They have nothing to do with what is going on and should not be punished #мнееадменяемнашихджетак https://t.co/WBMTYceF1u

Brown – who broke up with the Donda Sports agency last week – recently said he would sponsor any event the team wanted to host.
“It can’t have a negative impact on the student-athletes,” Brown said. “It’s up to all of us to ensure that they finish their senior year both academically and athletically.”
To all HS basketball coaches and event coordinators: This cannot negatively affect these student-athletes. I will sponsor any existing or new event Donda Academy wishes to host
It is up to us all to ensure that they finish their senior year both academically and athletically. Contact me— Jaylen Brown (@FCHWPO) October 28, 2022

While the Donda men’s basketball team has not officially been disbanded…it seems inevitable as they have virtually no games scheduled and organized practices have been limited.
As we reported earlier, there was also a Dondo academy expelled from Scholastic Play-By-Play Classics event Dec. 11 in Louisville.
