Will A Black College Player Ever Go This High In the Draft Again?

3rd Overall Pick Out The SWAC

If more of our top black high school players attended HBCUs.

there might be some breakout talent at some point, can't say never. but with the FBS (even a few FCS) conferences seeming to get bigger and make more money each year, the surefire talent won't even contemplate another course

 

[Tha Gawd Amen]

Low key, I sonned this thread

But nah, athletes are trying to get as much exposure and access to top flight facilities as possible. HBCU's don't provide those to the extent like an SEC school or just any big school in general. And I don't see athletes putting heritage and brotherhood before a future paycheck. Maybe there will be some breakout talent at a school though.

RIP to the gawd though
Can't trust these hoes

 

[I AM WE ARE]

black excellence

and nah no hbcu are getting looked at like that

 

[thenatural]

Lol. Hell nah. I can't think of a situation where any FCS player would go that high. There have been a few guys from the that have gone in the second round in recent years.

That was 20 years ago,the era was different.The big schools didn't let us be QB now you got blacks at Missisipi State,Alabama and other redneck schools,now they want us compared to back then.Never can say never tho

It's a shame we abandon our own as soon as whites come calling.

Gotta remember these are young bucks.The ones who should be ashamed are the ones that let these colleges suffer financially.What happen at Grambling a while back was crazy.

Exactly. Kids want to go to colleges where they'll be seen on CBS and ESPN, have a chance to play in bowl games and have a shot at the NFL. What kid wants to play for a program that looks like this?

My school [PWI] is planning on building a new 150 million dollar facility that looks like this:

You think Howard is going to get big time recruits when a school 20 minutes away looks like this?
