Nation Anthem? Really?

This is beyond silly. Even if you personally believe he didn't resign because of this... Look at the actions that were taken.

The cheerleaders protest, done to call attention to social inequality and police brutality, led to their banishment to the tunnel for ensuing games. Olens claimed the decision was because of a predetermined pregame protocol plan, but Atlanta-area journalists reported that two high-ranking authority figures, state representative Earl Ehrhart and Cobb County Sheriff Neil Warren, pressured Olens through text messages to put an end to the public displays. When the text exchanges emerged into public view, it looked very much as if the school president had covered up the real reason for the pregame change, and effectively suppressed First Amendment rights.

REALLY?! Why is this such a big deal?! It's a non violent protest by cheerleaders at a university that isn't even well know! They go through all of that?! I guarantee you they are more offended by this than a guy in the stands at a football game yelling expletives and racist things! That would be more acceptable that a non violent protest?!

It's almost like it's more acceptable for blacks to have violent protest that destroy their own communities and businesses than it is to take a knee during the national anthem at any kind of public event! It's stupid as fuck and makes you understand why black people still feel they are discriminated against.
