Exactly, brehs really are asking these teenagers to give up a lot just to fight for a cause. It’s a worthy cause but come on breh.
a 17/18 year old isn’t gonna pick hand me down generic uniforms and torn up fields over the shyt P5 schools got to offer.
It’s honorable yeah, but we gotta be real about it
Even back in the actual mid nineties this existed as a real thing.
Athletics wise like me for tennis. If i don't make it as a walk on. Mashika washington to what i would learn was real euro pros had what would be my scholarships grassroots. Where pros from euro or the americas are not under the same age and prize money issues as domestic players. So you had real atp pros who won prize money and twenty plus. Playing me at seventeen years old as one of the hardest hitting juniors easy. Yet i have to go to college and rhen possibly take the tod martin meets ol school mcenroe path to being a pro.
When you compare that to. Hbcu lack of little to No facilities. no great bathrooms, transportation, housing, food, etc. On a big ten campus as a walk on. To even maybe getting any type of ride for an hbcu in tennis. Which i do not even think existed then either.
You are picking the big university.
Especially since those are southern schools and the dorms are just inferior.
to a big ten schools campus dorm cafe sports facilities etc.
The msu im on my campus was probably more state of the art. Than, every building at the time on a hbcu. No fault to the hbcu. As we know the hbcu is as grassroots as can be. In regard to what big universities are.
I am swipe'n my campus photo id in to go workout or play indoors. I play tennis outdoors.
In and around the parking lot of a 100k capacity stadium. Literally Went into shock frfr.
going to practice tennis at the msu football stadium, where the tennis courts are.
You have no idea about the magnitude of college football.
being black at a big ten university from the inner city.
Till you see big rig light trucks hoisted in the air on crane. Like they are insignificant as fukk. With 100k plus frfr to see notre dame versus msu.
You just have no fukk'n idea at all.
No prescient idea at all.
Of the discrepancy and difference till you see it frfr.
So, once you know the subtle differences. Let alone lived the difference. It is no way a hbcu can compete without new deal based funding like white america.
got to terraform their subversive racist way of sheltered big university to real life.
