Why wont all the black players go to the black schools in college?

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I guarantee you Oregon never had players buying their own cleats and catchin buses 300 miles back and forth to games. The sacrifice stuff sounds good on paper. But it ain't a reality

Never? What about the 50's? You think that program was born rich?

Don't compare 2014 Oregon to 2014 Tennessee State. They're light years ahead because they've been building those programs at an elite level for a long time. If the top recruits always went to HBCU's throughout history, Oregon's program would be the laughingstock.

The point has been made. It's all about GUAP. T. Boone Pickens aint building a billion dollar stadium for Jacksonville State. Plus your chances of going pro increase 100% going to a cac school.

And honestly that's the only reason these nikkas play now. They just want that contract. This goes for basketball too.

the reason it increases is because they are there. Black people refuse to see how talented we are and the power we have with that. If those same boys went to an HBCU the SCOUTS will find you. They won't care who you played for if the talent is that great. When will we ever see what we have & the ability to control things with it

But answer this , why would a Jabari Parker, Reggie bush, Sammy Watkins, cam newton et go to an HBCU with fukked up facilities and horrible travel accommodations. I'm still waiting for an answer

 

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Ok I was kinda with you, until you jumped out the window with that shyt I don't know where that came from

Obviously not all but you know what I'm saying. Don't be coy. You know there's a lot of nikkas who ain't about shyt. I had 2 good parents in the home and even they left me with shyt so I can imagine some other families.

We don't look out for our own. Part of the problem is we don't have anything to pass down. Like I said, this isn't anything new. This is generation after generation. We need to step it up. Would you disagree? Are you satisfied?

I've answered this already

Money in the form of checks from the NCAA, sponsorships, donors, ticket sales, merchandise sales, fukking hot dog sales!

Huge assumption. Whites comprise majority of the collegiate athletics revenue base, I doubt they support/sponsor HBCU sports and us Blacks don't have the economic base yet to put up that kind of money.

For the betterment of future generations. A foreign concept in the black community, I know.

Take every black player off UConn and send them to Lincoln or something (not even sure if they have a team lol) and UConn is NOT the national champ. As such, UConn does NOT get the money and support that comes along with it.

Inherently false. They'd still get enough alumni dollars and white people going to games to prosper. And I seriously doubt the gap in school revenues would close much. "White" schools would still have the advantage in facilities, financial endowment, education, and coaching.

 

[BillBanneker]

They can move up in time. And importantly talent. Boise State was getting big conference invites. Hmm I wonder why.

And if these schools had the top players, they'd be getting invites as well.

By who, and Boise State still doesn't "pull" top players.

And these schools did have the top players (to go own to the NFL) at one time and that still didn't elevate those programs.

You are not givin black folks enough credit. Black people do support black businesses, black folks do pass down wealth. We do look out for our own. I just hate it when people use black people as the poster child for failure and dysfunction, when I can point out millions if white fathers that ain't shyt, millions of Latino fathers that ain't shyt.


But for some reason, we have to wear the badge of failure

I will agree that white people may attempt to sabotage athletics if black players started choosing HBCU's. That could be/could have been a potential issue. But it's hard for me to imagine people not caring about the BCS NC game if the players switched uniforms. Money is green.

1. You say this shyt like it's a guarantee.
2. How?

Sorry I missed it. Please explain bruh

 

[Malik]

if they start making the mass exodus to hbcus... the money will come.

and if dudes came straight out of HS and prospered... the facilities are a non factor

i was ready to come in here and shiit on this thread :cacmj23: but, that's a good point

Are you saying white people are inherently smarter than black people?

Why would the education be better? Why would the coaching be better?
