Vice President Harris was booed when she was shown on the video board at the Wells Fargo Arena and then ridiculed on social media for her speech to Howard players.
After the game, the vice president got a chance to give downtrodden Bison players a pep talk in their locker room after their loss.
"You played hard. You played to the very last second. You made all us Bisons proud," she said."You are smart. You are disciplined. You put everything you had into the game. You guys did not stop, and that is so inspiring. So you keep playing with chin up and shoulders back because you showed the world who Bison are.
