2013 Indiana Hoosiers

[Jack Lambert]

Here are your projected white Hoosiers starting for Indiana and coach Kevin Wilson this year. Wilson took the IU job from Oklahoma, but apparently, even he realizes that you need to recruit underrated white players to quickly build up a program, although some of these guys are still holdovers that Bill Lynch recruited. Since 2005, Indiana has started 11, 12, 8, 9, 9, 11, 10, and 10 whites. Look for that number to increase by four this year to 14!! This should be a fun team to watch this year. There’s white talent all around this team right now; 7 white defensive starters is amazing, especially in a power conference. Former starting CB Greg Heban makes his return as the starting Strong Safety. Even though he SHOULD be a CB, I’m glad he’s on the field. The two LBs, Griffen Dahlstrom, who came into his own last year, should be improving, and Chase Hoobler, who should be very good this year. ¾ of the DL will also be white this year with DEs Zack Shaw and Ryan Phillis, and DT Alex Todd. There’s a little bit less on the offense, but still enough to get excited about. WR Kofi Hughes has a chance to be “the man†on offense this year, with WR Nick Stoner a lock to get some good reps. TE Ted Bolser has been starting/playing for three years now; I’m expecting some big things from him. On the OL, C Collin Rahrig will anchor the line this year, and he could be playing in the NFL in a couple years.

Some white backups to look for with Indiana are: WR Nick Stoner, TEs Danny Friend and Anthony Corsaro, LG David Kaminski, C Jake Reed, RG Jacob Bailey, DT Jordan Heiderman, DE Nick Mangieri and John Laihinen, and SS Brandon Grubbe. Go Hooisers! I hope they somehow are able to upset Ohio State this year, and show Urban Meyer a team of thugs isn’t the way to go.

JL, I read an article hyping up a black quarterback for IU that missed last season due to injury. Hopefully the new coach plays one of the two white qbs in the positional battle.

Kofi Hughes isn't white. Kofi is one the most common first names in Ghana.

 

[white is right]

Kofi Hughes isn't white. Kofi is one the most common first names in Ghana.

Yes he may be "Black" but he certainly isn't White unless there are unusual circumstances to explain his swarthyness. He might be a straight haired Mulatto like Ryan Mathews who has more than 50 percent European ancestry, but this photo isn't what I would define as a White man.......http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrDNZ_ddK18 Then again this could be farmer's tan as in this interview he is white skinned, so maybe he has hippy parents who gave him his first name and one parent is Southern Euro or he is partially Native American....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xREZlJvrzHM
