I guess some folks are just obsessed with skin color, be it black, white, brown, green, blue, whatever instead of how a guy can actually PLAY.
For example, take a look at this gem.
Here is a look at the other side of college football .. Folks who are convinced that it is white people who are being overlooked and under-recruited, and being passed over by less qualified black athletes.
"It is only since the late 1980s that certain positions in professional football have become for all intents and purposes black only.Might there be other factors involved? For example, did you know that the 119 major college football programs, with very few exceptions, simply refuse to recruit and develop white tailbacks and white receivers no matter how outstanding they are in high school? And that the media enforces this rigid segregation by using euphemisms and descriptions that demean white athletes?
Talented white athletes who want to play tailback, receiver or cornerback must go to a small college program or go the very difficult route of becoming a walk-on at one of the major programs. And since it is the major college football programs that supply almost all the players in the NFL, it is hardly surprising that the white running back and wide receiver has become almost extinct, as have whites playing defense in general.
The truth is that white football players, no matter how talented, are directed into a racial Caste System that limits them to being offensive linemen, kickers, quarterbacks (though more and more major college programs are recruiting blacks for that position), and the occasional defensive position, usually linebacker or defensive end."

"
Please give this info to White players you know or their family/friends so they can choose teams that may give them a decent chance!"
"The Georgia football program left me.....I didn't leave them. That's why I'm pulling for Boise State, hoping that the SEC will stop the insanity of its current recruiting practices. I mean, seriously, its like watching HBCU teams these days.....with 95% of the fans being white....its really pathetic."
"It took me a while to realize New Miss had left me many years ago, and it is definitely pathetic to see the SEC DWFs [Dumb White Fans: applied to perceived predominantly white fanbases who root for perceived predominantly black teams, or that is my take away based on skimming this forum for a bit] literally live for "their" bank full of negroes."

There is even a thread for the Tide.

So here, we have a forum that chastises the SEC (which they believe stands for 'Systematically Excluding Caucasians') for being too BLACK lol. Why, why, why are people so obsessed with the color of a man's skin rather than his play on the field???
