University of Kentucky AD Mitch Barnhart has issued a message about the racially insensitive comments that were made by a Kentucky fan to a Tennessee fan in Rupp Arena last night.
Barnhart says, “there will be consequences for this unacceptable behavior.”
Check out his statement:
An incident like the one that took place last night at Rupp Arena has no place at the University of Kentucky. There will be consequences for this unacceptable behavior and they will be announced once communicated to the offending party.

We also have reached out to the patron who was the victim of this abusive and inexcusable language to apologize personally. That’s not who we are as an athletics department.
