Starting alot of freshmen and sophs in a good league while installing a new offense takes time right- ala Leach in 2020?
Any of your Freshmen and Sophs white boys? Asking for a friend.********Quote:

I'm thinking if they ain't scoring a bunch in a tough league (SEC tough??) playing Fr & Sophs ... he probably needs to change his offense. *Quote:

He tweeted that he decommited from uf and then committed to us, but who knows. He's got elite speed and agility so i figure we can use him either way.Quote:

Using your argument would mean they could also discriminate based on whatever they want to, including race, gender, sex orientation or whatnot ... which will happen in the not so distant future. Now I know you will say "but there are laws in place for that" which is true. And some of those laws violate the Constitution itself.
By the end of the decade these huge corporations will consolidate more and more and will eventually be usurping the Constitution thru their rules and policies. Since everyone will be reliant on them for everything (jobs, food, clothing, housing, banking etc.) they'll be able to arbitrarily destroy people's lives or shut off their bank accounts if they don't conform to their ways of thinking or if they say benign, but "offensive" things. So much for the "diversity" they push now cause then everyone will have to conform, which ain't "diversity". Orwell ... we have arrived.
Now I really don't wanna get into a political debate about all of this and people can disagree with me, laugh at me, scoff at what I say, or whatever. I've done deep research going back for over a hundred years and I know who owns what at the very, very top of the world, and can prove it. But not going to and just gonna let it all play out one way or the other. IMO ... it ain't looking to rosy going forward right now.
The whole point was the allowance of offensive speech (i.e. free speech). Hollering "racism" at the drop of a hat about every trivial thing does get a little old to me.
ETA: I also thought the whole thing was more about BSD not liking C34 than anything else really.
Well, this thread has headed downhill since the first page !!
Haha I know right. Hopefully this new recruit never hears of this thread. Welcome to the Hospitality State my man……Quote:

P.S. Tater I agree with most of what you say but please know our rights end with the constitution not someones feelings.
Amen !! Nailed itQuote:

If anyone wants to discuss further, my DMs are open. I'm not responding to anything else that isn't praising this kid for making the best decision of his life on this thread and it's best if we all move forward in the same manner.
It's ok that there are some general differences in people, it makes things interesting. There are not many black hockey players, or Asian olympic lifters, or Middle-Eastern NASCAR drivers, or Latino track and field guys. If there was a Samoan guy in the NBA slam-dunk competition people would notice, but if he was playing rugby no one would think twice. People know who Matthew Boling is because he is a white guy that ran a 9.98 100m.
I mean, if I'm drafting a curling team it will predominantly be Scandinavian women.
It is ok to notice that people are predisposed to be good at different things. What is not ok is prejudging their ability based on that criteria alone.
