Paul Donahoe (above) and Kenny Jordan (below) posed for gay porn site Fratmen.tv. Once Nebraska wrestling coach Mark Manning found out, he kicked them off the team … permanently. Manning said in a statement:

"This incident was not the sole factor considered before the decision was reached to dismiss the two wrestlers."

In April, Donahoe was arrested and taken to jail by Lincoln police after they were called to investigate a loud party. Police said Donahoe was argumentative and refused to help in breaking up the party. He was convicted in May of maintaining a disorderly house and fined $250.

Manning continued:

“The history of behavior of these men, including the current matter, does not reflect the standard of excellence we aspire to on and off the mat.”

“We will move forward in a positive manner toward our goals. I want to personally apologize for any embarrassment that may have been caused for our athletic department, the university and our fans.”

The boys were not kicked off the team because they were gay, but because they violated NCAA rules.

Josh White, NU’s assistant athletic director for compliance, told The Associated Press that Donahoe and Jordan were declared ineligible because they violated an NCAA rule that prohibits athletes from receiving compensation for the use of their images by anyone seeking commercial gain.

NCAA athletes are not allowed to knowingly let pictures of themselves be used for commercial purposes. Athletes would be considered ineligible for competition if they accept any compensation or permit the use of their image to advertise, recommend or promote directly any commercial endeavor.

White said both Jordan and Donahoe had violated the rule and said each wrestler would have to apply to the NCAA for reinstatement if they were to choose to wrestle for another school.

These boys could have a successful career, but not in wrestling.
