Nebraska Basketball to Wear Shirts in Response to White Nationalist Daniel Kleve

Nebraska Cornhuskers men's basketball coach Tim Miles said Friday that his team will not boycott Saturday's game amid controversy surrounding a white nationalist at the school. 

According to Rick Ruggles of the Omaha World-Herald, Miles said Nebraska players will wear T-shirts that say "hate will never win" prior to Saturday's contest against Rutgers.

Miles' announcement came after Nebraska student Daniel Kleve released multiple videos in which he went on racist rants. Kleve's videos led to a 300-student rally at the University of Nebraska to protest hate speech.

With regard to his players, Miles said, "I love our guys, and I'm glad they're able to stand up about the right things. ... I think we're in a good place right now. It took some time, some soul-searching for a few days."

Miles added that the vast majority of players voted against boycotting, but said they wanted to make a statement against racism.

Much of Nebraska's basketball team is comprised of black players, and Kleve said in one of his videos that the Founding Fathers didn't care about the opinions of Mexicans or African Americans.

According to ESPN.com's Adam Rittenberg, Nebraska chancellor Ronnie Green said Kleve will remain enrolled at the school due to his First Amendment rights despite many students calling for his expulsion.

On Saturday, the 18-8 Huskers will go for their fifth consecutive win.

Nebraska is fourth in the Big Ten with a 9-4 conference record, and it will have an opportunity to complete a season sweep of Rutgers after previously beating the Scarlet Knights in January.
