Didn't see this posted. Just saw that BYU players have been accused of making racial slurs. Looks like another attack on a majority white team. If they did make slurs its probably exaggerated and shouldn't be a big deal anyway, Ive played and black players make racial slurs as well.

"Provo "¢ Charges from a member of the San Diego State football broadcast
team on his sports talk radio show last week that Brigham Young
University players routinely make racial slurs during athletic events
are totally false, BYU's athletic director said Monday.
"We feel confident that the things that he said are not true,"Â said
BYU athletic director Tom Holmoe."

"Chris Ello, a color analyst for radio station XTRA Sports 1360 in San
Diego, included allegations of racism in an anti-BYU rant Thursday after
learning that a BYU employee worked in the replay booth Oct. 9 during
the Cougars' 24-21 win over the Aztecs. The booth botched a call that
led to BYU retaining the football after an obvious fumble. Ello said BYU
was "100 percent hypocritical"Â and had "no honor,"Â among other
derogatory statements. Ello apologized Friday for some of the remarks,
saying he was emotional and frustrated, but did not back away from his
accusations about racial slurs."
"I have talked to dozens and dozens of San Diego State players over the
years who will tell you without fact, or without argument, that BYU is
the dirtiest, slimiest, most ill-behaved football team that they play
every single year,"Â Ello said Thursday. "The racial comments that are
delivered during games [by BYU players] "¦ would get people arrested in
most parts of the world."Â
Holmoe also voiced displeasure about a blog post on the station's
website that Ello, who is white, made 18 months ago in which he compared
Provo to Birmingham, Ala., in the 1960s and said he feared for his
well-being while walking down the town's streets.
