This passage by Kersey is looking outdated:
Ask Austin Collie of the Indianapolis Colts, who excelled at Brigham Young University as a receiver. BYU is known for having great quarterbacks who throw to primarily white Mormon receivers, and Collie is easily the best receiver the school has ever produced.
Perhaps his success is fueled partly because he had a good support system at BYU, instead of being constantly ridiculed by his teammates for being a "slow, white receiver." Because BYU actually recruits student-athletes instead of any Black kid who can run a fast 40 time, white athletes aren't unfairly criticized and made fun of; with most of the team being white guys, there a sense of camaraderie that talented white players don't feel elsewhere.
Their receiving corps have been "browning," and I'm not sure if some of those guys are mixed blacks or dark Polys. They had (Todd) Watkins a few season's ago, and now they have Apo and such. Their backfield has had several Polys.
Their d-line starters, and rotation, are mostly Poly. For whatever reason, (Senior) Matt Putnam isn't getting much PT this year. At a time when White d-linemen appear to be on the rise in college football, where is BYUs "new"
Travis Hall, Ryan Denney, Brett Keisel, Chris Hoke, Jan Jorgensen, etc? Sure, the Utah Utes' got commitments from the Kruger brothers (Paul, Joe and David), but there has to be other competent Whites out there that BYU could have gotten.
3 non-Whites start in BYUs secondary. Going into the future, one of the few positives I see from them is some promising Whites' they have at linebacker and maybe tight end. In closing, this isn't the BYU of decades ago. They are noticeably browner, and, Polys aren't "honorary Whites." Either BYU is being
forced to go darker because White LDS are choosing other college destinations, primarily in the Southwest and Northwest, or BYU has made the "choice" to become a rainbow team.
