Has anyone else seen this? Crazy stuff.... All African-American atheletes just started a strike at Mizzou calling for the university president to step down. From the sounds of things, the president doesn't intend on stepping down, but only admitted to the racism problem. Really too bad that after all these years, there is still racism lingering around. Seems really bad in the state of Missouri. This probably has played a major role in Mizzou's struggles this year in athletics.
As for the BYU football game, if it does happen, this could be a beatdown of epic proportions. Only 26 of 84 scholorship athletes are currently with the team. I don't even think the game would happen in this scenario. Would have to be postponed. Feel bad for the many coug fans who've probably bought airfare, tickets to the game, and have made plans for months for this big game in a historic stadium.
Hope things get straightened out there, but this is the state that still had the extermination order against Mormons up until 15-20 years ago.
