The University of Southern Mississippi announced that it took disciplinary action against five of its pep band members today.
The five students were involved in one of the more controversial moments of the NCAA tournament, when they chanted "Where's your green card?" as Angel Rodriguez, a Latino player from Kansas State, took a free throw.
In a statement, the university didn't name the five students but said their pep band scholarships had been revoked, they have been removed from the band and they will be required to take a two-hour cultural sensitivity training course.
