Earlier this week, AZ Central reported details of Arizona Coyotes’ fourth-round pick Mitchell Miller. Four years prior Miller and another student engaged in severe bullying of Isaiah Meyers-Crothers, a Black student with developmental disabilities.
The response to this story was swift. Many, including this site, saw this move running counter to the team's initiatives to oppose racism and bullying. Today the Coyotes announced that they have renounced the rights to Mitchell Miller.
