Yep and black parents should really pay attention to this. They have their kids ear most of the time. When a recruiter comes to the house on some I want lil Tyrone to come to Nebraska and play. The black parent can hit them fools up with an article on how they didn't like black players exercising their right to protest.

Let's see the recruiter talk they ass out of that one.

Unfortunately most of the parents of these kids are poor and uneducated so they're gonna go with the best school to put their son in the pros. I think we all forget sometimes that it's a privilege to be able to buck the system.

I respect your viewpoints, but a lot of these 4/5 star recruits are coming from harsh conditions breh. Asking them to make a sacrifice of getting out of these harsh conditions just seems a little unfair. I remember seeing Howard university lose to Boston college ( nowhere near a football powerhouse) 76-0 last year (football). It just seems like a uphill climb.
Yea i'm not railing on the athletes for not doing it, I want to make that clear. i'm just saying thats what it would take, guys willing to sacrifice not having the nicest facilities and amenities if it means the kids coming 20-30 years after them would have it. NCAA football is a business in which everyone gets a cut except for the players, and when they turn around and stand up for themselves and what's going on this is what they get from the board members. Wouldn't happen at an HBCU.

It kills me when people say things like "It's a free country" before they say dumb shyt like this.

No need for the disclaimer. We know where you stand.

I respect those players. I didn't know any college football players took a knee at all this season.

When the football talent leaves the big school, the other talent like nutritionist, trainers, coaches, etc would follow. It could be done.

That would take money that the HBCU's literally do not have. Some of those schools barely have weight rooms. The coaches are terrible. It's a lot more unrealistic than y'all believe it to be. It would take more than a generation of players to go there and even more time (10 years or so maybe more) to get them to a point where they could negotiate on the level of the power 5. They have a lot larger platform staying in the bigger schools and I think it's slightly ridiculous to ask young kids to take on sacrifice that us older cats should be fighting, but it would be smarter to get them to consider statements like this when choosing schools so they can avoid situations where some old coot is trying to get them kicked out the second they want to stand up for themselves and their people.

Every black recruit shouldn't even consider Nebraska so this cac can watch a team full of white players stand for the anthem and then get beat by 50 every week.
Basically. fukk those corn husking cacs. Plus, those corn farmers are responsible for that high fructose syrup poison that's causing obeisty, so a double fukk you to those ass wipes.
