Don't live in the area, but visiting family in St. Louis and came across a story about a white RB being the Offensive Player of the Year. I have never seen him play, but there's an unbelievable shot of him jumping over a football player during a game and you know white players can't jump, right?


His name is Mike Bunton of Parkway North High School. They make a point of him being very athletic, as evidenced by him hurdling a football player, but they state that there are no college football offers for him. Mind you, I said NO COLLEGE football offers and that includes Div I, Div I-AA, Div II and NAIA. He's hoping to get an offer by a local NAIA school in town, Lindenwood, or else he'll have to play baseball.


Now I understand at 5'8, 160, he's small. However, I wonder if his speed is less than ideal. That would be the only thing that could explain it to me. Of course, they lined him up at LB on the defensive side, so maybe he really doesn't have speed to play CB or RB at the next level. Plus, his father is the coach.


Again, I speak against racism at all levels, but can't say definitively that there is racism in this case. Anybody have any more info on him.
