堪萨斯州立大学周日晚间解雇了男子篮球教练杰罗姆·唐，当时正值他第四个赛季的中途，理由是其最近的公开言论以及球队发展方向。此决定源于对辛辛那提队失利后病毒式传播的赛后抨击，并伴随着自其成功首赛季以来表现下滑。该举动引发了关于唐合同买断的谈判。
杰罗姆·唐在堪萨斯州立大学的任期于周日晚间突然结束，大学以事由解雇了他，这距离他那场引发病毒式传播的激烈赛后新闻发布会不到四天。这位59岁的教练在其2022-23赛季首秀带领野猫队取得26胜10负战绩并获得NCAA锦标赛第3种子，进入精英八强，但随后几年球队表现挣扎。自那次突破性赛季以来，堪萨斯州立大学战绩为45胜47负，在大12联盟中为18胜32负。2025-26赛季尤其惨淡，野猫队仅取得10场常规赛胜利和大12联盟1胜，这是球队25年来第三差的胜率记录。
X上的讨论凸显了对堪萨斯州立大学以‘事由’解雇教练杰罗姆·唐的震惊，此前他病毒式抨击球员并因球队表现不佳，用户对这一决定是否合理或是否为规避买断而分歧；唐的律师威胁进一步尴尬，引发关于NIL时代球员批评和球队快速衰退的辩论。

This is insane. Pay the guy what he's owed. He…
It’s not James Franklin fast, but man, what an outrageously rapid fall from grace.

Jerome Tang got fired from Kansas State for being a lousy GM and for losing (but I think he’ll still eventually get paid).@AriWasserman brought up an interesting point: Now that the players are getting paid, can a coach be more publicly critical?https://t.co/fC92FHknDT pic.twitter.com/lUeXBoGnRC
