In the 1960s one of the strongest voices was that of the black
athlete. Not at the University of Wyoming. The only colors that
mattered here in '69 were brown and gold, and the only issue worth
paying attention to was Cowboy football. Wyoming's 14 black players
wanted to wear black armbands during the upcoming game against
Brigham Young University to protest the policies of the Mormon
Church, which did not allow blacks to enter into the priesthood.
The head coach Lloyd Eaton gave them the boot. And everything about
Cowboys football changed forever.
