[Colonel_Reb]

I couldn't help rebelling and previewed New Miss anyway, despite Vanilla_Sky's claim. I also completed MS State this morning.

5 starters between the 2.. That's rough.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

celtic, yeah and the sad thing is I knew it would be that way, and 5 appears to be the best case scenario at this point. Another new all-time low in terms of White participation on those two teams. The depth charts are literally sickening and completely inexcusable. I can't write enough to properly express my disgust at this still growing trend of discrimination against White athletes.

 

[Leonardfan]

The Mississippi teams are pathetic. Overall it's hard to say if there is any marked improvement in the number of whites starting in college football since the write ups and tracking began 10 years ago. I would guess that a decline is there - probably 5%
decrease. Many of the teams have been pretty steady with not much deviation.

No real breakthroughs have been made at rb, lb, db, wr and i can't really compare it to the previous 10 years 95-04 since I didn't really follow college football to see how the two time periods compare.

Their have been some small break throughs and victories for us but nothing like having 20 teams start a white running back or a marked increase in white corner backs.

The trend that really stands out is the black quarterback push at the college level - that has really been the unfortunate story in college football. Taking jobs away from better white qbs just like has been done in the past at every other position. Blacks have proven they are subpar NFL qbs though and the NFL is going to be hurting at the position if things don't change.

Seems to me without checking all the write-ups that the number of White starters began dropping dramatically several years ago and then last year dropped noticeably again. This year's reviews seemed to show an uptick, but then the reviews of late have been depressing. Maybe most of the relatively White friendly teams and programs that were showing improvement were reviewed first.

Thanks to you good men for reviewing them each year.

Thanks JL. We should be done with this real soon.

 

[Leonardfan]

Almost done with the FBS previews! Cruising through those so i suggest we preview maybe top 20 FCS teams?! NDSU Bison in particular deserve a thread. FCS champs 4 years in a row with a ton of white talent!

Feeling ambitious!!! I don't know if I have that in me to be honest lol. I am looking forward to what Carson Wentz does though! He was fun to watch in the playoffs.
