Latter-day Saint UCF player Grayson Brousseau responds to derogatory chants directed at BYU

Latter-day Saint UCF player Grayson Brousseau addressed derogatory chants directed at BYU during a homecoming game. Brousseau, who grew up in Lehi, Utah, did not personally hear the chants but praised UCF's handling of the situation. UCF was fined $100,000 by the Big 12 following the incident, as per the conference's updated discriminatory conduct policy.

The Big 12 acknowledged UCF's swift removal of the fans and playing of the pregame sportsmanship commercial, but still imposed the fine. The Pac-12 has also expressed concern over similar incidents at their venues, vowing to strengthen fan conduct standards and accountability. Brousseau urged fans to recognize that discrimination is not centered around sports, emphasizing the importance of treating each other as human beings.
