I put some tin foil on my teeth and acted like a complete white trash moron for an hour to see what it was like to be a Miami fan...I ran around the house talking about 5 Rangz and hyping up my August recruiting class...my wife looked at me the same way other college football fans look at Miami’s contingent of crassness

Well at least we know they’re still planning on keeping the Kevin Federline branding in the 305

And game six isn’t necessary. Looks like they are keeping it on the ACCN anyway, which of course could change. My guide lists “To Be Announced” on espn. Translation: “We don’t know what we will broadcast, but not your game.”
Canes’ attendance policy was accepted by the governor’s office “as is, no changes necessary as historic trends do not indicate more than 25% capacity.”

D'eriq King plays the race card.
After transfer and tragedy, D'Eriq King finds his way back onto the field
This is something Eric King made his son keenly aware of early. D'Eriq pays close attention to how Black quarterbacks are debated and dissected, such as how questions about Lamar Jackson's pro future were prevalent in the draft process despite his Heisman Trophy and collegiate accomplishments.
"You gotta do stuff 10 times better to get the same thing that other quarterbacks get," D'Eriq said. "You gotta do interviews different, you gotta talk different, act different, you gotta just be different for guys to think of you as a quarterback."
When Kyle Trask, who backed up King at Manvel High, was offered by SEC power Florida, King was thrilled for him. The two were great friends and remain so to this day. But he also wondered why no blueblood program would take a similar chance on him as a QB.
"I was totally happy for him and I knew he would be good there," King said. "But deep down inside, [I'm thinking], 'What's the point of me going out here and doing everything I can do and I'm not getting the same opportunity as him because I'm not 6-5 and white?' I'm just being honest.
Is Clemson not a blueblood program?

If Trask were to return next season, he'd be the only white kid out of 4 in the QB room here. The college football playoff last year was 50-50 between white and black starting QBs, including the number one overall 2018 class recruit who was allowed to transfer to his current team and play immediately based on an allegation. He'll also likely be the second QB taken in this year's draft. Lamar Jackson was unpolished and has had one really good season where his team's overall style was completely unique and without extensive film. He may still end up being what some were cautious of.
Please stop.
Whaddya say you just go play football and try to score your team's first TD since the second quarter of their next to last game.
