The man responsible for a racist social media message that Willie Taggart was lynched was fired from his job at Hilton Grand Vacations, the company said in a statement Monday.
"Our concern about this situation is a top priority," said Lauren George, spokesperson for Hilton Grand Vacations, about the unidentified employee. "The person responsible for publishing this information was fired, his behavior contravened the company's multiple rules, and the latest example reflected the company's values."
The meme became viral after the man posted it in the comments section of the fan group page. Florida State President John Thrasher condemned this article on Sunday, calling it "ignorant and despicable". The Florida prosecutor of the second judicial circuit is conducting an investigation.
Taggart, the first black football head coach in Florida history, was hired last December in Oregon. The state of Florida has recorded the first losing season of the school since 1976 and has failed to qualify for a petanque game for the first time since 1981.
