— a former USU football player — wrote to university President Noelle Cockett last month, citing the video as among reasons he is “beyond ashamed” of the school’s program.— but later was removed without explanation and with no confirmation of who recorded it. It circulated again on social media last year, but its veracity had not been confirmed until now.
He continues to laugh and clap his hands before the video ends. The brief recording doesn’t include anything that was said before or after that. “Repeating his words, which were vulgar and foul, was my mistake,” Hartwell said in his statement. “I should not have repeated them even in a one-on-one conversation. ... I apologize that any of our football student-athletes who were in the hotel lobby heard such an uncharacteristic comment come out of my mouth.”At the time, he said, he showed it to Cockett. Hartwell said that Cockett told him “there wasn’t anything on that video that concerned her and to not worry about it.
