    In addition to demands specific to the athletics department, athletes also want UT officials to rename campus buildings named after Texans who were proponents of segregation or held other racist views, remove a statue of prominent segregationist James Hogg and discontinue the school song “The Eyes of Texas,” which has ties to minstrel shows and was created during segregation.

    Brennan Eagles, the school's sop re wide receiver, and Brandon Jones, a senior defensive back, were among the students who posted the statement, detailing a list of actions Longhorn athletes want the university's athletics department to take. These include donating 0.5% of the department's annual earnings to the Black Lives Matter movement and black organizations, establishing a permanent black athletic history exhibit in the Athletics Hall of Fame and renaming parts of the football stadium after Julius Whittier, the first black football letterman at UT-Austin.
    Public universities shouldn't be funding political slush funds.

    Agreed. I didn't like Obama's huge stimulus slush fund. $20 billion IIRC.

    You dont want to know about it.
    Trump has already made it clear that government workers under his adm. will work for his political campaign or they are gone.
    The lawsuit has been filed. You pointed out the worst adm on this particular subject but because you bow to it, you ignore it.

    Agreed. They'll just tell the players they don't have to sing it if they don't want to

    Too much baggage for Tom Herman to unload. Should start planning his next job.

    If they folded to all the demands it could help in recruiting.

    Agreed. Song is obviously not racist.

    Have you taken the knee and admitted your ignorance, or are you holding
    really hard to your white privilege?
