    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    My brother I am in full agreement with the collective state of HBCU athletic departments. I've seen my own alma-mater mismanage theirs. When I entered college, our football team was a consistent 1-AA Playoff contender. We regressed to an FCS doormat(although it's looking like we're on our way...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    I can't and won't argue with pretty much all of what you said here. As much as I am an advocate for HBCUs, you'll never see me being against significant percentages of our our kids attending other institutions. But I'll ask again, why is it when a kid who fits into the bolded part of your post...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    I never said Maker going to Howard was a "magic bullet". I know it's illogical to say one kid making his choice has created a "seismic" shift, but it's logical to think that his choice could possibly(no matter how unlikely it presently seems) create one. I gotta disagree with you on the size of...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    Please inform me of any specific programs setup to recruit black players at any white institutions. I have no knowledge of their existence. Now if you mean are there any specific programs setup to recruit white students, then yes. Just like white schools have them to recruit those who are...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    I know it won't be a quick process but it's not an impossible one. Two things to keep in mind. First, most HBCUs have alumni bases that extend across the globe. It's not as regional as you think. Second, very many black people have ancillary attachments to HBCUs like people who root for state...

    **** right bruh. My version of a perfect world would have a UM-FAMU FBS Championship game every year with a 50/50 split in the series...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    Ok, look at it like this. Think of all of the **** and hole fans across the state who've never set foot on their campuses except for going to doak or griffin. If FAM & BCU were successful FBS schools, you don't think we'd be able to poach a good portion of their fans. I know they'd be able to...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    (1. Yeah. If an HBCU were able to acquire enough talent to field a consistent Top-10 FBS program, you mean to tell me that they wouldn't be able to attract a wide TV audience(especially in comparison to current times), invitations to P5 conferences, etc.? If your answer is no, please explain it...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    Great for HBCUs to have talented kids. This generates economic growth for the schools and their surrounding communities. Talented kids will make it to the pros no matter where they go, and if enough go to those schools they can compete athletically with their white counterparts(that are...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    White students & student/athletes have NEVER been barred from attending HBCUs. Why is it such an abhorrent idea that some of our best athletes attend our schools??? I'm waiting for an answer. I personally believe the same people would also be up in arms if the majority of talented white kids...

    Call me crazy, but maybe, juuust maybe if enough talented kids go to HBCUs, the major tv networks and apparel distributors, etc. will want to conduct business with those institutions???
