People on this board need to stop with the racism propaganda. I was raised in Mississippi. My dad went to the U. I went to the U. We both live back in Mississippi. Racism, while it exist, isn’t anymore prevalent in Mississippi than it is in Miami. I’ve seen it first hand in both places, but not to the extent people in here make it out to be. My daughter goes to Mississippi State, she came home this weekend, I asked her how prevalent it is on campus, she said, she doesn’t see it. If we don’t get a recruit I’m as disappointed as the next guy, but the they are all a bunch of racist is a pitiful excuse

White liberals have this weird liberal versus conservative shtick where they act like black ppl dont know they are racist too. They may not be KKK March rally racist but they're still Trayvon Martin was a thug racist.

The crazy part for me( & its tough as a life long cane) is to admit some of these kids go on ov & see what a real college atmosphere is like & they get hooked. Im not gonna lie. Its something we justbdont have the ability to sell. Hundred plus thousand people camping out all weekend and tailgating up until kick off. Knowing the entire town bleeds ur schools sports & nothing else... its a legit sale.
It’s also a legit sale to play for the most elite football brotherhood in football.
In one of the most international cities in America. No college party scene trumps spring break down here. Or memorial weekend. Or winter music fest. I could go on but I’ll digress. Been to uf and fsu back in my day to visit friends. No way I would skip out to go there or to tuskkkaloosa or Athens. If your a good ole boy we have the davie rodeo, the best fishing in the world and you can go 4 wheeling and hunting in the glades. No competition. Don’t even get me started on the women down here. Can’t even go to publix without seeing hot women.
you think brooklyn is a recruit or something? you think you need to sale HIM or UM?
I know who he is (not personally). But recruits read this board. And his voice carries weight. Just offering a counterpoint to this “college experience” narrative. Colbert went to Texas for Christ sake and wanted to know if his injury let him have another year of eligibility. That dude loved it here and recruited for us. Not to mention he was about to look for a 9-5 if we didn’t get a hold of him.
I know what you're saying I am just mentioning in my post that there are some kids that just want to leave south florida for school. People want to blame Rumph instead of thinking the kid just wanted to leave. They have lived it their whole lives and just want to experience something different.
I had 2 close friends that went through the recruiting experience from my highschool, one was Mr. Football his senior year in FL and an army all-american. The stories he would tell of his visits made me want to be a highly touted recruit instead of a walk-on. I even went with him on an unofficial to UF for the FSU UF game for a free ticket (Miami was away at Pitt that weekend). The fact of the matter is that was over a decade ago and I can only imagine how it goes for recruits now. Some kids like the limelight and being in a town where you THE show.
Also, I hear you on the women in Publix in South Florida, but be for real, a lot of these kids don't have 2 nickels to rub together so getting women in South Florida as opposed to college coeds in SEC land where they through themselves at you is also something these kids like. Again these are 17-18 year olds who get big eyes when they get to an area where the town revolves around the school and you are the celebrity.

The most overused word of the past 8 years. Holds no meaning now. Congrats!
Yep. The American South. The most tolerant part of this country. No ingrained mentalities there. Nope. In fact if you state otherwise then YOU'RE the racist just trying to deflect upon the fine folk in Mississippi and Alabamy and Ark-can-sawl.
GTFOH. Roy Moore barely lost an election after saying things were better during the slavery era. And Nicky Saban didn't say a word.
Btw, I'm a lifelong conservative. It doesn't take a political ideology to see that certain parts of this country are more stuck in the past than others though.

These kids need to talk to me. I lived by Kirby during his playing days at UGA and he was a southern redneck in a redneck fraternity. Absolutely, never hung out with any of his black teammates. I can't believe he is where he is today. Jermaine Phillips knocked up his sister and he was furious and it wasn't because she was pregnant. He flat out didn't associate with people of color. Again, can't believe he has made it to this point.
SAE is one of the more racist white fraternities. It's not "quite" as Confederate southern as Kappa Alpha Order, but they are consistently blindingly white, just check out the composite pictures. At UM, in the 1980s and 1990s, I do not remember them pledging or initiating a single black member. They were known for wearing Oxford shirts and ties along with khaki shorts and deck shoes. They lost their house at UM, not sure if they have made any attempts to recharter, but I doubt that their style of whiteness would go over as well today, since UM has a fairly diverse student body.
I was in an SAE chapter in New York — we had more ethnically and racially diverse brothers than any other fraternity on campus. So, I hope your statement isn't a blanket one. I cannot speak for some of the chapters down south, but as a whole, just because you are in SAE doesn't mean you are a racist.
Agree not all racist but some.....

I live in Biloxi, on the Coast. My dad is from the Delta, the poorest place in the State. He played RB for Milsaps(if you ever heard of that college). I played baseball at Miami Dade South, before going to Miami.hasPeople on this board need to stop with the racism propaganda. I was raised in Mississippi. My dad went to the U. I went to the U.
