Morgan’s denial from the sororities soon sparked debates on #BamaRushTok. Many commenters who followed Morgan’s story claimed her “nonchalant” approach was one reason she wasn’t selected during Bama Rush. Others said she didn’t fit the “look” of a typical PNM due to her lack of robust trendy looks.

One TikToker, Sammy (@samantharoseeeee), believes Morgan’s style (or lack thereof) had nothing to do with her denial from the sororities. According to the influencer, who is also in one of the university’s sororities, Morgan’s denial had more to do with the negative attention Bama Rush has received over the last few years.
Since its rise on TikTok, many social media users have become more invested in the behind-the-scenes moments of the recruitment process. The weeklong events even became the subject of Max’s May 2023 documentary of the same name.
Due to this, Sammy believes that the Rho Chis wanted to recruit more “open-minded” and less willing to show the negative aspects of Rush Week. Sammy also said Morgan’s complaints of how expensive Rush Week can be, which her followers could also relate to, didn’t help her with the Rho Chis.

She kind of dragged out that narrative a little bit too far,” Sammy explained. "To the point where it looks like she just didn't wanna be there.” “And dragging out the whole not having money type thing,” she continued. “I don't care whether she has money, but if you're gonna milk something or drag something out, I don't think being broke should be it."
