To my knowledge no one has posted on this game. This weekend three I-AA teams defeated I-A teams. The game that gained the most attention was mostly white Montana State defeating the mostly black college football powerhouse, Colorado. At the same time some division III teams are starting to defeat the I-AA teams (Uof Wisconsin/Lacrosse just put a whopping on South Dakota State.
Are we starting to see a new kind of parity as a result of the increasing caste pressure on college football? Are talented white players forced out of Division I scholarships raising the play of lesser division teams?
I think so.
The lower the division the more white participation you will see. Many Division III (no scholarships) teams are completely or almost completely white teams. Imagine how much more coachable these teams must be. Many of the nations best players, who are white, are not offered scholarships. I don't think its any accident that three division I teams fell this weekend to I-AA teams.
I know someone who avidly (former player) follows South Dakota State
football. SDSU moved up from D-II to I-AA. They now compete against Montana State and usually are pretty competative. My source says that when SDSU moved to I-AA they used the added scholarships as most teams do and they started to recruit more brothers in the false hope of becoming more athletic. SDSU (Josh Ranek, Adam Vinateri's team) previously was nearly a 100% white team. Now they've added a lot of scholarship bruthers and it's beginning to show. They were just beaten by a D-III team. Does that mean D-III teams like UW/Lacrosse could compete with teams like Colorado?? I know it sounds crazy but with proper recruiting isn't it now possible? Maybe somebody should get a clue.
Anybody else notice this trend?
