STILLWATER -- Oklahoma State's Black Alumni Society recently released a statement that included 10 recommendations for the OSU athletic department amid the football team's struggles with racial strife.
The board members of the Black Alumni Society wrote that they "must express our hurt, disappointment and embarrassment regarding the recent events involving the Oklahoma State University head football coach and the African-American student athletes on the football team. It is unconscionable that our most high-profile campus individual would be so lacking in awareness, especially during these historic and tumultuous times."
The statement came in the wake of controversy within the football program after running back Chuba Hubbard said he would not take part in any OSU-related activities "until there is CHANGE," he wrote on Twitter.
