The Oklahoman: “An announcer for an online broadcast directed highly inflammatory, racist comments toward the Norman girls basketball team ahead of its quarterfinal matchup with Midwest City on Thursday at Sapulpa. The announcer’s comments on a live microphone were made after members of the Norman girls basketball team kneeled for the national anthem. The announcer was hired by the Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association and was broadcasting on the NFHS Network, can be heard saying, ‘They’re kneeling? (Expletive) (racial slur). I hope Norman get their ass kicked. (Expletive) them. I hope they lose… They’re going to kneel like that? Hell no.’ Multiple sources identified the person that uttered the racist remarks as a former high school football coach, but The Oklahoman is not disclosing that person’s identity until it can be confirmed on the record. Attempts to reach the person identified have been unsuccessful.”
