I think most of the negative comments he got were from people who don't like being called racists because they call the Washington football team the Redskins. If the logo was not made to look like the Redskin logo people would have just been confused instead of upset.
I doubt it has anything to do with white people being upset at being turned into mascots. Every "human" mascot on the sidelines for an NFL team is a white man (Patriots, Saints, Cowboys, Texans, Forty-niners, Vikings, etc). Same with colleges (Notre Dame, Perdue, Tennessee, Nebraska). The question should be why there is not more diversity in that area.
