Why are there no white running backs in the SEC

[The Breakerboy]

Why is this being entertained????? When do we take players based on race? Only talent and skill sets matter.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Because they all go to Stanford.

Also, Tebow was around not too long ago.

White man isn't fast enough to compete.

fast twitch and slow twitch muscle fiber


We need some type of affirmative action so it will be fair and balanced. Like 4.5 for a white man is equal to 4.0 for a black man. Just make black running backs carry 40 pounds of extra weight.:devilsmoke:

I know!! And such a fitting analogy too!

BTW congrats on your debate performance the other night and welcome to Volnation!

We have had no white running backs in the SEC except fullbacks in years. Why?

because they are white

Jimmy the Greek once offered an explanation based upon observable physical differences between black and white males. He cited studies which claimed the lower body muscles (the legs and especially the buttocks) of blacks were distinctly different and more explosive than those of whites. That explanation got him banned from TV and NFL broadcasts. Therefore, I will not ratify that opinion for fear of being banned from highly intellectual discussions such as this one.

If he had stuck with the bolded part only, he might have been alright. I had forgotten what his exact comments were. Here they are.

But you didn`t play that game, Jimmy. You said what was on your mind and your mind had some pretty oddball notions about black athletes: ``They`ve got everything. If they take over coaching like everybody wants them to, there`s not going to be anything left for the white people. . . . I mean, all the players are black; I mean, the only thing that the whites control is the coaching jobs.``

Yeah, you really stepped in it with that, Jimmy.

``The black is a better athlete to begin with,`` you said. ``Because he`s been bred to be that way, because of his high thighs and big thighs that go up into his back and they can jump higher and run faster because of their bigger thighs, you see. . . .``

``This goes back all the way to the Civil War when . . . the slave owner would breed his big black to his big woman so that he could have a big black kid. . . .``

I thought it was against the rules?

 

[Catbone]

Why is this in the recruiting forum? Lol

 

[TNnative]

It is because too many white kids sit on their butts playing video games all day long. Few are willing to put in the work it takes.

 

[VOLS4LIFE2015]

......uhh

 

[appvol]

Georgia has a white RB.Brendan Douglas he is a JR. 175 carries for 715 yrds 5 Tds for his career so far.

Yeah, that's it.

Got news for you, most of those "lazy" white kids could work their butts off and still wouldn't get a starting RB job in the SEC. You can't teach speed.

And we kick they azz....u c the connection there?

 

[Paper_Towel]

I honestly used to think Hurd was white,but then I saw his hair

[alexbond45]

Lol i was talking to my black roommate and he said...

"Boy, we black people can run. We can't throw, sometimes we can't catch, but we sure can run"

That's when we both realized the best black quarterbacks were known for their ability to scramble.

Hmmmmm

 

[Jax_Vol]

In a related note, why are there no Hispanic running backs in the SEC?

 

[kayakonthefly]

Because they are on the O-line or playing tight end?

 

[TAF]

Ask Jimmy...he'll tell you...

 

[Zues1]

The white backs are playing at Air Force, and they ain't shabby. Now where are those Asian LB ?

 

[YorkVol]

Because almost all white guys aren't fast enough at that position. Same with DBs.

Or the ones that are fast enough are playing lacrosse or soccer.

Doug Williams and Warren Moon disagree.

 

[PowerOrange]

Hurd is mostly white.
