The apology shouldn't just be to the BYU program... Jaxon Dart, Vic So'oto, CJ Ah You, and I'm sure others

TheLoneCougar Adrielle?!

that are on their own team and coaching staff.

Stuff like that doesn't get under my nerves, but when you have active members on your own side and you are that belligerent as fans...it just shows how naive fans can be.

USC out with the official apology

Coog4Life

Thats kind of them.

Too bad BYU students didn’t chant back, “Let’s Go Trojans!”

Crowgar

11/28/21 3:10pm

I thought it would get swept under the rug. Good for them for acknowledging it.

VACougMD

11/28/21 1:02pm

They aren't Utah.

crack

11/28/21 4:45pm

meh. We have endured many things and hope to endure all things.

Str8CashCougar

11/28/21 8:26pm

A bit after the fact don’t you think?

Tank's Dad

11/28/21 1:02pm

Not sure there's anything else they could do.

BYUCougarsFan

11/28/21 1:03pm

Well, it is something.

Tank's Dad

11/28/21 1:05pm

What could they do? Answer: stop the game and call the ridiculous chants

SanPedroCougar

11/28/21 7:51pm

They could really be 'inclusive' instead of just posing.

Pangare

11/29/21 12:38pm

It's something and it's good enough

arkansasbleedsblue

11/28/21 1:10pm

It’s nice honestly. What were they supposed to do? Stop the game and kick

11/28/21 1:53pm

I think Gonzaga might have gone overboard because it was not a bad offense, but

SoBlueitHurts

12/1/21 12:37pm

It would have been hard to apologize before it happened.

jes2332

11/28/21 2:12pm

An apology the next morning is very appropriate

Mabuhay Coug

11/28/21 3:29pm

It’s never too late for an apology

Kilgruman

11/28/21 3:45pm

I wouldn't expect them to apologize beforehand

icecougar

11/28/21 7:18pm

Isn't that how apologies work?

ditch

11/29/21 12:03am

I appreciate that honestly. I assumed they wouldn't say anything.

BYUCougarsFan

11/28/21 1:03pm

Good for them. I just roll my eyes and ignore that stuff, but good for them for recognizing it.

SingleStrapBackpack

11/28/21 1:04pm

That's awesome of them.

Rise Against

First I'm hearing of this. What was said?

FT487

11/28/21 1:06pm

Yewt the Mormons

wildeone

11/28/21 1:07pm

What point in the game? Was the chant picked up on the TV broadcast?

Marathon Man

11/28/21 1:52pm

Yes it was loud and clear to me. But took 20 seconds to figure out what it was

D.T. Survivor

11/28/21 2:19pm

IIRC, it was at the two penalties thrown, where they waved off the offensive PI

bbd24

11/28/21 3:43pm

What was it?

crack

11/28/21 1:08pm

"Let's Go Mormons!!!"

SingleStrapBackpack

11/28/21 1:09pm

Let's go Mormons. The chant was hilarious, edgy, and witty. It was a great examp

vagabonder

11/28/21 1:10pm

Didn’t they use the actual F word...so completely negates any point you are

ColonelMustard

11/28/21 4:09pm

Yes, they were using the "F" word, and I am fairly confident that vagabonder was

RedHeadedStranger

11/28/21 5:37pm

I thought they were saying “Let’s go Jaren.”

GrumpyCougar

11/28/21 2:15pm

Almost…. They were saying “Let’s go Jackson!” Such great students to cheer for their Mormon QB!

Rhino84

11/28/21 4:46pm

Does not align with our Trojan values? Well, uh, YES it does

Lifi

11/28/21 1:11pm

Exactly right. And that's why I don't want to play them anymore.

Y-Zag

11/28/21 1:16pm

Way to hang on to that anger and grievance after an apology

spinner

11/28/21 1:18pm

Hard to still be a victim if you acknowledge the apology

Martin Van Nostrand

11/28/21 1:36pm

Well if she wasn’t wearing such a short skirt…

Iman23

11/28/21 1:46pm

I am just glad you are here to police the reaction to the apology. Never change,

Iman23

11/28/21 1:41pm

you’re right, every grievance should be nursed, all feelings of victimhood should be nurtured

spinner

11/28/21 2:03pm

To be fair, no one who chanted is actually apologizing. It's easy to apologize for other people. Also, I don't care

zonacougar

11/28/21 2:34pm

The apology is nice, but it’s not from the people involved.

JAK

11/28/21 2:58pm

No it doesn’t. A few bad fans such as USU against Brandon Davies or water

Fatalplacebo

11/28/21 1:37pm

When offered a sincere apology, it’s generally best to accept it and move on.

BluesBrother

11/28/21 2:26pm

Wrong people are apologizing. Administration didn't participate in the chant

Y-Zag

11/28/21 2:30pm

This is true, but move on anyway.

coolblue

11/28/21 2:33pm

Have you never apologized for your children’s behavior when they were young ...

BluesBrother

11/28/21 2:34pm

When they were under 18, yes. Otherwise, no.

Y-Zag

11/28/21 2:40pm

RE: Does not align with our Trojan values? Well, uh, YES it does

Wildcat70

11/28/21 3:20pm

This is an extreme analogy, but please bear with me…

GrumpyCougar

11/28/21 4:05pm

Feel persecuted much?

Michicoug

11/28/21 4:35pm

At least they acknowledged it

BigHouse Coug

11/28/21 1:12pm

Have to make peace among administrations. But it won't change student behavior.

Y-Zag

11/28/21 1:16pm

Did they issue that to ensure they keep jaxson dart…? 😏

4slyce

11/28/21 1:14pm

Is he LDS?

crack

11/28/21 2:13pm

Yep

Yllage Vidiot

11/28/21 2:21pm

They won't.

CougarTailDevourer

11/28/21 2:25pm

I wouldn’t be surprised if he transferred.

Yllage Vidiot

11/28/21 2:32pm

Not with Lincoln Riley coming. I'd be stoked if I was Dart.

Y-Zag

11/28/21 2:40pm

That’s true. He can probably put up with 2 years of USC life for a shot at the NFL. Couldn’t pay me enough to sit in

Yllage Vidiot

11/28/21 2:50pm

^^^ 😂 Thinks football players go to classes ^^^

Shore10

11/28/21 6:06pm

LSU and USC getting into a bidding war for Lincoln Riley?

coot20

11/28/21 6:40pm

“Trojan” values? Maybe it aligns more than they let on.

Would be great if Dart announced he was transferring due to the intolerance at

NJBYUFan

11/28/21 1:28pm

I doubt that happens, lol. But it would also be good for those guys to step up and say they don't appreciate it either.

TheLoneCougar

11/28/21 1:48pm

Katoa, the recently returned missionary couldn’t have been thrilled

travelcoug

11/28/21 1:37pm

Would be great to get him. Isn’t he a legacy kid?

BYU '80

11/28/21 5:26pm

Yep, and his girlfriend is on the soccer team

travelcoug

Well, maybe they aren’t a great fit for the pac12 😉

I just think it was hilarious right after the "USC is inclusive" commercial.

I’m actually surprised, and will give them credit for putting this out there!

11/28/21 3:10pm

The administration apologized and that’s probably all they can do.

BlueLine

11/28/21 3:11pm

No—We should accept their apology + make a statement of our own about Christ and love and denounce religious persecution

Dr MoBYU

11/28/21 4:08pm

I wonder if they would have dropped the hammer harder on Let’s Go Brandon

Honor Code

11/28/21 3:43pm

Yes

BYU '80

11/28/21 5:27pm

“Distasteful” so that’s what that was. Got it.

Dr MoBYU

11/28/21 3:57pm

Something you’ll never see San Diego St do

ColonelMustard

11/28/21 4:07pm

“Distasteful” kinda sounds like they don’t like what was said but don’t disagree

Bobmarleyjr

11/28/21 4:51pm

Yeah I think that's a bad choice of words

BigHouse Coug

11/28/21 5:55pm

I’m actually pleasantly surprised. Don’t think we ever got one from Stanford

BYU '80

11/28/21 5:23pm

Stanford learned 50 years ago that they couldn’t possibly apologize to everyone the band has offended, so . . .

Yllage Vidiot

11/28/21 5:30pm

Good for them. Also, Trojan values sounds the economy pack at the pharmacy.

I think USC knows this could hurt their ability to recruit LDS athletes.

Silvex

11/28/21 9:01pm

Could have been a great moment sharing the Law of Chastity. Perhaps a counter-chant of "Not unless we're married"
