Whitest College Teams-2009

[Colonel_Reb]

All 120 FBS teams have been previewed! Thanks to everyone who helped this year!

Number of teams that started at least 11 whites out of 22 positions since 2005
2005-35 teams out of 89-used non-black criteria
2006-36 teams out of all 119-used non-black criteria
2007-26 teams out of all 120-used non-black criteria
2008-26 teams out of all 120-used strict criteria
2009-34 teams out of all 120-used strict criteria

Looks like some improvement to me, especially since 2007. We'll have to keep watching this over the next few years to see whether the improvements continue.

Very nice work Colonel. Thanks for the efforts.

It is ridiculous that rivals usually has only one or two white receivers in the top 50 or so yet about 25 percent of starting receivers are white.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

I know what you mean, whiteathlete33. Its no joke when we call them whiterivals. Its nice seeing the number of starting white WRs go up as much as it has. Thanks to Jack Lambert for breaking down the positional representation by team!

I appreciate it, Bronk! This is the earliest we've ever been able to complete the FBS previews, and its a testament to everyone who has helped. Hopefully we'll continue to see small improvements with each passing year. I'm thrilled to see the slight reversal of trends over the past few seasons!

No problem Colonel.

I'm always happy to help.

I hope the trend of white WRs starting more continues to go up. It was at 20% or lower for awhile. Also, the white LB is another good trend that seems to be taking hold. Over 75% of teams start at least 1 LB. I'm glad to see the numbers of the teams that have at least half of their starters be white take a tiny leap forward. Also 10/22 teams has gone up as well. Hopefully, the number of white friendly teams continue to go up.

On another note, I've noticed we have been previewing a lot more FCS teams this year than any other year. I hope we continue to preview them. It is nice to preview some whiter teams for a change. I'll be paying a lot more attention to the FCS this year, as they have a lot of majority white teams to cheer for. Hopefully, a team like Montana or a similar majority white team can take the national title this year.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

As team websites get more comprehensive on all levels, we should theoretically be able to preview every Division 1 team. My personal goal for this year was to preview some of the whitest and best FCS teams in order to make people aware of their treatment of whites and hopefully steer a few athletes in the right direction. We have done more FCS teams than ever before. Hopefully others will contribute info about their local FCS schools. I too hope one of these several blazing white teams wins the Championship. With as many as there are, a couple of them should make waves deep into the playoffs.

Some very relevant info from Jack Lambert and myself regarding white starters in some conferences.

As far as anti-white discrimination in college football goes, its the individual schools that make up the conferences that are the
biggest part of the problem. The coaches, recruiters, and athletic
directors at each school is where change is most needed. This is
different than the drunk white fans, but part of the same problem.
Because of the extreme discrimination of each school's personnel in the
SEC, the SEC becomes a discriminatory league. Considering this, every
conference in the country looks discriminatory against whites. There
are schools in each conference that are less discriminatory than other
conference members. Schools like BYU, Vanderbilt, Northwestern,
Stanford, Central Michigan, Cincinnati, and Boise State often stand out
from other conference members by playing more whites than the rest, but
often the conferences are still far from being as white as they should
be.

Let's take the MWC for the first example. As a conference with 9
members, they have 4 teams that are majority white (BYU-17, Air
Force-15, Colorado State-16, and Wyoming-16) and 1 team that may start
10 whites (Texas Christian), and the rest should all start 8 whites
(New Mexico, San Diego State, UNLV, and Utah).

This is
probably the whitest conference by starters in the nation in the
whitest conference area in the nation, but it still has teams that
should be whiter than they are. The SEC is probably the blackest
conference in the nation in the blackest conference area in the nation,
and it has a majority of teams with less than 6 white starters. Vandy
is the whitest team with 12, then comes Kentucky with 9, Alabama-8,
Arkansas-7, Tennessee with 6, LSU, Georgia, and South Carolina with 5,
Ole Miss and Mississippi State with 4, and Auburn and Florida with 3.

The
differences are pretty stark, 70 white starters out of a possible 264
(26.5%) in the SEC versus 106 white starters out of a possible 198
(53.5%) in the MWC.

Here
are two other major conferences to compare with the Mountain West and
Southeastern Conferences. First, the Big 12.


Colorado - 12/22

Iowa St. - 7/22

Kansas St. - 12/22

Kansas 11/22

Missouri 9/22

Nebraska 13/22



Baylor 9/22

Oklahoma 7/22

Oklahoma St. 5/22

Texas 9/22

Texas A&M 10/22

Texas Tech 8/22



112/264 42.4% of starters are white. The loser of the Big 12 is
Oklahoma State with 5 white starters. After that, the next lowest teams
start 7.


Here is the Big 10



Illinois 4/22

Iowa 12/22

Indiana 9/22

Michigan 7/22

Michigan State 11/22

Minnesota 11/22

Northwestern 15/22

Ohio State 11/22

Penn State 8/22

Purdue 11/22

Wisconsin 13/22



112/242 46.2% of the Big 10's starters are white. Not counting SEC
duplicate Illinois, the lowest number of white starters would be
Michigan's 7. This should be over half as well. The Big 10 has a majority of teams starting
11 whites or better, but the total is dragged down by the U of I's 4
white starters.

I'm shocked at the stupidity of Iowa State. I guess they don't want to recruit the underrated sleepers (meaning Caucasian defenders, RBs and WRs). Considering they can't land top skill player recruits on "Rivals" 100% black farce list- they should be looking for white unranked, 2 star and 3 star players that the blind potato chip eating scouts were "unable" to properly evaluate. If they did this they'd probably eventually become a top 25 team- instead they will remain a cellar dweller.

[ToughJ.Riggins]

You're missing Rutgers Reb. As of now, their last released depth chart has 10 white starters (when you count two positions they named whites "co-starters").

 

[Colonel_Reb]

Tough, I took Rutgers off thinking they wouldn't have 10 because of Anderson. I'll re-add them since they might end up with 10.

 

[ToughJ.Riggins]

Yeah, Anderson is now the 3rd CB. However, Joe Martinek is still listed as a "co-starter", but there's a new "co-starting" player on the list- DT Scott Vallone (Vallone has had a late rise up the depth chart).

 

[Colonel_Reb]

I'm a bit disappointed in seeing a few of the whitest teams get a little blacker just before the season begins, but it happens every year. The nice thing is that the reverse happens every year as well! Quite a few teams get whiter as the season closes in. Hopefully the whiter teams will do well this year and get into some really nice bowls. More importantly, the white stars of college football need to have a great year and open more eyes to the reality that whites make world class athletes! Here's to an exciting season!

 

[Colonel_Reb]

It was nice to see BYU (tied for whitest in the land) with 16 whites starting, upset Oklahoma, with just 6 whites starting. I hope this will help the MWC case for changing the BCS. This was the biggest win for BYU since 1990 and should propel them in the rankings. I hope they run the table and can play in a BCS bowl and open even more eyes about the ludicrous caste system.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

Updated original post.

 

[Jack Lambert]

I'll be updating some teams' depth charts now that the season has started and things are mostly in place now. I've already started updating some.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

Thanks Jack! Just let me know the teams and numbers that need to be updated on this thread and I'll update the original post again.

 

[Jack Lambert]

Update:
UCF needs to go down 1 white starter.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

Got it!

 

[Jack Lambert]

With the addition of Brett Dewhurst to the starting secondary, Texas Tech can be moved up onto to the list of teams with 10 white starters.
