Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Mississippi, Texas, Florida, etc. have many racially motivated occurrences They do? At their volleyball matches?

Certainly a great look for recruiting! I think it’s pretty important to recognize this was one idiot, not a crowd, a state or a university. I think the coach and players response to it says what they are about as a program. This can and does happen EVERYWHERE. This was as isolated an incident as there could be. I wonder how Husker fans would react if some of the players on the Husker team took a knee at the next home game during the anthem? Sometimes Nebraska "nice" is a joke.

I feel like the appropriate response from Nebraska fans should be:
"We can be better."
Not
"We aren't that bad."

I have never said something like this in a match, nor would I. How am I supposed to "be better?" I forgot. Fans don't interact with other fans at all. There's no sense of community amongst fanbases. Never mind! At the very least, I was suggesting another angle. Because the "we aren't any worse than other other place/town despite this not happening in any other place/town" doesn't seem to be working...

I've publicly called for the person who shouted that to be identified and banned from future matches. Is that what you're after?

These reactions and the uproar that follows is exactly what keeps people doing these things and enhances the divisiveness. We’re all here for volleyball.
It’s over. There’s always going to be two sides. No bashing one side is going to change that. Move on.
We have our biggest rival on Friday night. Let’s talk about that.

Probably about how they reacted on instagram when Lauren wore a Black Lives Matter t-shirt last season.

Let’s all go at it and attack each other behind usernames that don’t allow for anyone to identify who anyone actually is on a volleyball forum, solely because of varying political viewpoints. My fault for attempting to steer the conversation back to the sport.

Probably about how they reacted on instagram when Lauren wore a Black Lives Matter t-shirt last season. this is what I cannot stand about so many of you volleyball fans. The total hypocrisy and ugliness in which you conduct yourself. Remember the girl that made the mistake of wearing a trump shirt or something a few months ago? She was absolutely ran out of town. Do you remember when BYU prayed and invited the other team to pray with them, how disgusted and outraged so many politically correct woke fans were? But yet you’re it bothers you that people had an adverse reaction to Lauren wearing a black lives matter shirt? They are horrible people? No, they’re just like you people are only in reverse. That’s called hypocrisy.

Bottom line, you immature people just cannot handle an opposing opinion, it cripples you. Just like this subject. You cannot let it go and move on. It’s like a sickness.
