I don't follow high school football but noticed this blurb in today's sports section about a recruit from Western PA. I thought from the kid's name he might be black but it quickly became clear that he's another victim of the Caste System. Even the service academies happily screw over White kids. Anyone with even minimal comprehension skills should wonder why a phenomenal running back was recruited to play a different position as it makes no sense on the surface, but no one will question it, certainly not The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette or the writer of the blurb. Here's the blurb in its entirety:
"Ben Jackson, a record-breaking running back at West Greene, made a verbal commitment Thursday to Army. Although Jackson had an unforgettable year as a runner, he was recruited by Army to play linebacker. Jackson, a 6-foot-1, 220-pound senior, opened eyes with a terrific year, setting a WPIAL single season record with 3,076 yards on 203 carries."
More proof that there is no "Christian McCaffrey Effect," just business as usual.
