As a student of UAFS, I will not be attending any UAFS basketball games while coach Jim Boone still holds his position. If discrimination like this because of someone’s natural HAIRSTYLE doesn’t infuriate you, then there’s a problem. I encourage students from UAFS to speak up. pic.twitter.com/D2gpWJYRAz

Late Tuesday night, an attorney representing Boone issued the following statement to 5NEWS:
Coach Boone didn’t punish or mistreat Tyler Williams over the length or style of his hair. In fact, he never made Tyler cut or change his hairstyle. Photos of Tyler’s hair over the past year show that his hairstyle never changed.
