Why the University of Miami Sucks

Because he may not be starting.

They just need “diversity”

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?

D'Eriq King Recruit Interests

Or cal.. or Washington ...or UCLA.. or Michigan st.. you’re too good for Louisville where Lamar Jackson was tearing it up? Gtfo.. the fact that you’re 5-11 caries much more weight than you being black. Hell FSU’s QB is starting for the 3rd year in a row despite the fact that his name is actually BLACKMAN and he’s effing terrible.

5'9" ish

Changing perceptions
King is listed on Miami's roster at 5-foot-11. In reality he's a sliver below 5-10. But because of plays like this and the fact that he's Black, King has often been painted into the corner of "athlete" first, quarterback second.

That was just an attempt to win back the lockerroom. Probably didn't help that Blackman's only real competition at QB was a white kid named Al Ivesmatter.

Exactly like that. I was at the ESPN club for the first half of the game and had to leave. Walked back to the Dolphin to finish at the downstairs bar and even had to leave there a few times. I don't do canes fans very well. Neck and neck with uga.

Anybody buying that there are 13,000 people in the stands at that game? I estimate 5,000 TOPS.

All I know is I’d beat that RB Harris in a foot race. Tonight. In my dress shoes.
