FBS QB apologizes after eating sushi off a nude model during a reality show appearance
“Below Deck” is a popular reality TV show, depicting crew members aboard a super yacht.
During this current season, which was shot back in early 2020, UNLV QB Max Gilliam made an appearance.
In his appearance, Gilliam was seen eating sushi off of a naked model. On Monday, he tweeted out an apology for his judgement and the position it puts the UNLV program in:

Gilliam has appeared in 5 games this season for the Rebels, throwing for 599 yards, 4 touchdowns and 3 interceptions. He also has 195 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns.
First-year head coach Marcus Arroyo issued a statement on the incident, too:
Max Gilliam was on a reality TV show called Below Deck.
Gilliam has apologized and Marcus Arroyo said players have to recognize they represent UNLV when in public. Both their statements are below.

It doesn’t seem Gilliam broke any NCAA rules during the appearance, and no laws appear to be broken, either. What a weird incident.
Eating “sushi” off a hot, naked chick
Was it red snapper?
It was pink snapper.
Crabs
Lol. 5 yard penalty on that.
Ouch!
You UGA guys had me laughing till I cried with these remarks! Thank you!
Dumbest thing ever. Not you Adam but that a 20 yr old has to apologize for eating off a naked model (who went after the job) and probably didn’t care I’m guessing. Do an image search on UNLV cheerleaders. I particularly like the one where their uniforms look like they work at the tilted kilt.
This is abhorrent. Coaches need to control this. No football player should be eating sushi. Diet is important even in the off-season.
What’s wrong with eating fish, rice and vegetables? That diet has been the cornerstone of my child’s diet, a swimmer, and she is on track for a pretty good scholarship.
Raw fish can harbor bacteria and parasites. It’s just a joke though. I was making fun of people being outraged by this but I was pretending it was for a different reason than most thought. I don’t think anything he did was wrong. Good luck to your daughter.
I understand that sarcasm is difficult to convey over the internet, but Matty’s comment is very clearly sarcasm.
I am just surprised Maty Mauk never did that when he was at Missouri. That seems like something he would do.
Wouldn’t have been eating sushi wink wink
Or Johnny Manziel at A&M
Society has jumped the shark when a college-aged dude has to apologize for eating food off a naked model……but was it fishy tasting?
Is he apologizing for eating sushi? He’s a young man and over 18 so what’s the big deal – it was a tv show! Now if he was in the LOCKER ROOM eating sushi off a naked chick then now we’re talking about a no no!
It took awhile, but I couldn’t help looking up the actual video.
Gentlemen, she wasn’t really naked. Her nipples were taped and palm leaves covered the important parts.
I don’t get all the fuss. A college-aged guy ate sushi off a scantily-clad woman.
Next.
Hell I would not apologize for something I was happy to do. Too many apologize when they have done nothing wrong. If someone doesn’t like it they can bite it.
Big deal. Why apologize?
Bearded clam nigiri…a local favorite.
SDS – (slaps forehead) Didn’t recognize that “naked woman” and “sushi” could be misused.
EXTRA, EXTRA, READ ALL ABOUT IT!
FOOTBALL PLAYER LIKES SEX.
Slow news week indeed for the fake outrage machine.
Former President George W. Bush said it best: “When I was young and stupid I was young and stupid.” As long as she was a willing participant in the tomfoolery, who cares?
I was young and stupid as well. Not so much anymore but I’d still eat sushi off of a naked woman (if I was single or my wife didn’t care)
Loosen up—life’s short–party hard. Eat that sushi!!!
This is just dumb. You’d think a school based in Las Vegas would have a little more understanding of such things. Or maybe they’re overly paranoid about party,sex,gambling, sushi, etc.
I agree with Tiger TD…He plays for UNLV-University of Nevada at Las Vegas, home of scantily clad showgirls and anything else anyone could care for. It made for a great read.
Maybe if had draped a table cloth over her first? ;)
Or just don’t apologize apologize and teel everyone to f*** off.
He didn’t sexually assault her, he didn’t rape or kill anybody. He didn’t steal anything or do illicit drugs. He enjoyed sushi and a naked woman. WHO THE HELL DOESNT?!?
aaaahhhh, Where can we apply for taking his place in the next episode?
This could be tricky. If you follow your nose you could wind up eating the wrong fishy treat!
I wonder if something like this for pre-game would help numb the senses before a CBS Broadcast?
Sadly the body heat probably detracted from the quality of the sushi. I demand a second apology for wasting good sushi.
