Regardless of how I feel about OU in general, Bob Stoops seems to be the kind of person that would probably have given a serious thought to allowing his team to boycott a game, had this occurred during the football season. I don't know that I could name very many coaches that would have done that, but I hope HCBS would be in the group.
Black athletes should know the power they have on a campus and can easily remind fans that if they choose to sit out, the team will struggle to compete.
