Investigation finds evidence of racist, homophobic slurs at Illinois rivalry football game

The allegations of homophobic and racial slurs during a rivalry football game between New Trier (Winnetka, IL) and Evanston Township (IL) on Oct. 16 at Northwestern's brand-new $862 million stadium have been supported by evidence. New Trier Superintendent Dr. Peter W. Tragos said in a statement on Monday, Nov. 9 , that a joint investigation between the two schools found evidence supporting the alleged hateful slurs New Trier students directed at Evanston band members. "Since the game, we have conducted more than 40 interviews with students and staff," Tragos said in the statement. "We have also followed up on reports submitted through TrevTips and email, reviewed available videos, photographs, and social media material, and conducted additional interviews as new information emerged. This work has continued in collaboration with Evanston Township High School. "I want to make clear that the investigation supports accounts of hateful language and actions directed toward the Evanston marching band from individuals in the New Trier student section. We take these accounts seriously and recognize the hurt this incident has caused." Evanston Director of Communications Reine Hanna confirmed to USA TODAY Sports that Evanston worked with New Trier to investigate the claims. "We have been working closely

We put Northwestern's new $870 million Ryan Field to the test

Northwestern spent $870 million building a football stadium with luxury amenities, gourmet food, spectacular views and a design intended to keep the noise inside. But does it all live up to the hype? The big picture: We headed to Evanston Saturday night for the Wildcats' game against Iowa to put the new Ryan Field through a stress test. The verdict: Pretty tremendous. The stadium is a winner, even without a luxury ticket. But the high-tech concessions and neighborhood noise controls still have some kinks to work out. What they're saying: Pat Ryan Jr., CEO of Ryan Sports Development, compares opening the stadium to watching a dog learn to swim — lots of splashing before finding its rhythm. "We're not at cruising speed yet, but we're not splashing around as much," Ryan says. The view from the endzone while the Wildcats warm up before the game. Photo: Justin Kaufmann/Axios 🏈 The view Northwestern has gone to great lengths to ensure fans sitting in the upper deck have an experience comparable to those in the luxurious "Living Room" section at the 50-yard line. Zoom in: Entering Ryan Field was a fairly standard experience, but once inside, you're immediately greeted with a view
