You would have to ask the athletes. I was not there. I was only referencing Randii’s comments on Instagram. I think it is naive to think LSU is a scot-free program. Maybe more athletes will eventually come out and voice their concerns.

Quite often what is alleged to be racism and prejudice is what is filtered through someone's personal lens.That does not mean they are right or wrong, but too often these charges are accepted at face value , especially if made by a black person.

Far too often the allegations of racism and prejudice are vague and never supported by specific incidents because they don't have to be, the media never challenges them.

An athlete might think a coach is yelling and pushing her too hard because of race, but the reality is the coach may push all teammates the same way and it is not racially driven.

The athlete may also believe she is not in the lineup as much as she would like due to racism. That is ludicrous when a coach 's job security depends on team performance. When coaches make a mistake in this area it is not due to racism.

There may be legitimate issues, bu hiding behind the vapid systemic racism charge should be challenged.
