This thread will probably derail, but it does pertain to UCF sports as well as politically. A writer from Yahoo! talked to Tacko, I'm assuming at the Houston game yesterday, for his comments regarding Trump's travel ban on predominately Muslim countries.
So it will probably get some degree of national exposure, and predictably could lead to other media seeking out Tacko for additional comments.
If this thread gets out of control, I will lock it.

UCF's Tacko Fall on President Trump's controversial travel ban: 'It affects all Muslims'
University of Central Florida’s Tacko Fall isn’t from a country on President Donald Trump’s travel ban list, but he is familiar with what it’s like to not know whether you are welcome in the United States. And as a devout Muslim, he feels impacted by the decision either way.
“I think it affects Muslims all around the world because it’s called a travel ban but it’s for [only] Muslim countries and that’s the reason why [those countries are banned],” Fall, who is originally from Senegal, told Yahoo Sports. “It affects all Muslims whether my country was part of the ban or not.”
