The Texas Longhorns' university store received backlash over a shirt that read 'Embrace the hate.' But those outraged didn't appear to have the context.
head football coach Steve Sarkisian laid out the motto for the team heading into the 2023 season –"Embrace the hate."
"I think that they've kind of assumed this mentality of, ‘Embrace the hate.’ We get it. We're the University of Texas, we get it. This is our last year in the Big 12," he said, via ESPN. "We can sit there and be a punching bag, or we can go attack the people that we're going to play. And I think that they've assumed that responsibility to say, 'Hey, we're gonna go after everybody else too.' I think that that's the right mentality to have."Texas Tech"We’re the University of Texas. Nobody likes us. That’s OK. We embrace the hate. We’ll be ready to rock and roll Saturday at 2:30," he said, via On3 Sports last year.
