The Big 12 Conference is threatening sanctions beyond fines after a visiting team directed anti-Mormon chants at Brigham Young University during a recent game, according to a report by USA TODAY's Jordan Mendoza published Wednesday.
The conference has not specified which team was involved or what additional penalties may be imposed. BYU, a school owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, has faced similar incidents in previous seasons.
The Big 12's response signals a stricter approach to discriminatory behavior at conference events.
