After announcing he would transfer from the BYU Football program just six days ago, Isaiah Herron has now announced that he will stay in Provo.
The 6’1’’ cornerback had intentions of transferring to a historically black college or university (HBCU) but now says that he can make the sort of impact he wants to by staying at BYU.
Herron announced his decision Wednesday afternoon in an Instagram post that is worth reading:
“The reason I wanted to leave was due to the current climate in America in regards to racial injustice and the killing of unarmed black and women,” Herron wrote, explaining that his choice to leave had nothing to do with BYU or anything he has experienced in his time there.
