Our team as a whole is predominantly AA. It obviously doesn't effect every AA kid the same way. I think some of the young AA kids see it as a way out of a life on the streets. The town in general is obviously mostly white but the actual campus population is prob quite a bit different.
I didn't realize that all our current players are white...Exactly. Grown, white 20-50 year old white men don't understand why a 18 year old AA would pass up an opportunity to live surrounded by 20-50 year old white men. This board can have some dumb summaes on here sometimes. I mean stupid. It's common sense.
You crack me up...and now you're going back on my ignore list...sorry I took you off. The poster who said your post was the dumbest post he'd ever seen was right.
I have spent a lot of time in college station and its almost 100% Cowboys! I have no doubt Fayetteville is the better city when it comes to this conversation. It's also why o don't by it. No doubt there has been a kid that said there want enough of an AA population but I don't think that's the norm.
Texas, the state, produced 345 FBS D-1 players last year. Plenty to go around. How many did Arkansas have? Next!
according to that link, there are almost half a million people in that region, right? What's 2% of half a mill... yeah, that's a good amount of individuals...Roughly 10 thousand. How many of those 10 thousand are students or younger people?
I never said Arkansas had the lowest %, genius. I said it's hard for a kid to hop on a plane and want to stay where there is a huge majority of 20-50 year old white men. Now, living in Texas....you following me here dumbass?....you live in the same state. Most of the kids' parent that go to A&M can still see them play in Texas and they're close by to drive home after school. I don't mind you being ignorant, just don't expect me to keep replying to it.
Fair point, but Texas produces a TON of talent. It's much easier for a kid to go to A&M than it is to Arkansas. The last few years recruiting rankings show that. How many OOS AA kids does A&M have? 5-10?
you know I do not post on here much but I do like to read what people post. you are probably one of the most arrogant and condescending posters that I have come across on this board. there are times that you say material that most of here on this site enjoy but that is not very often. 2% is 2% is like a butthole is still a butthole
In all honesty I hope you post more often. We need more people that contribute nothing to the conversation, only to drop in & call names. Have a good day sir.
10 thousand is still 10 thousand.
Ahh, So your theory is only relevant when it fits, got it.
You whine about somebody calling you names (which he did not do) right after you call someone a dumbass... Man, you are a special kind of b!+ch.
So your point is not the AA population it's being away from home? When I lived in Texas I know a lot of the parents wanted their kids out of the crime infested neighborhood. If you look at the population of Austin, Waco and College station I'd bet they are all predominantly white cities.
He added nothing to the conversation. I don't mind being called names, but to drop in and add nothing to it is ignorant.
I'm not saying it's the only reason. It's a contributing factor. And more than some realize.
I started the conversation, rather you agree or not is one thing. Do you want to add your opinion, or just sit back and call names again? Your opinion is welcomed.
I don't think it is more than anyone realizes, If kids made decisions based on AA population we'd never beat UAPB.
So it's ok for you to call someone a dumbass, if you decide that they don't bring anything to the conversation? But if someone fires back at you, then they are wrong? Talk about admitting when you're dead ass wrong...oh BTW, aTms roster has 21 OOS guys on it, so exactly 20% of the alloted 105... but 5-10 was close...
