Oklahoma recruit Jean Delance said he withdrew his commitment to coach Bob Stoops and the Sooners after seeing a video that showed SAE fraternity members at the school chanting racist remarks.
“Very uneducated people. I wouldn’t want my son or child to go there or to anywhere like that,” Delance told CBS 11 in Dallas-Fort Worth on Monday. “It was just very disturbing to me. I didn’t like it.”
Delance, a four-star offensive lineman who is ranked No. 272 on the ESPN Junior 300, committed to the Sooners in November and finally visited Norman with his mother, Altavian, last weekend.
Upon returning home, the video prompted him to rethink his decision.
“I’ve had family history in racial issues, inequality,” Altavian Delance told CBS 11. “Jean knows these things are serious to us.”
