The NCAA is allowing social justice messages on jerseys. I hope Lake takes this and runs with it as a African American head coach at a high level traditional power 5( most AA get jobs at bad schools in the power 5 if any) The need for social justice for black and brown people is becoming accepted in the American conscious. It’s understood in the NFL, MLB, & NBA. Lake can position himself as the “First African American Who Can Win A National Championship.” He was late with Floyd, and Cristoball respond first. This is an opportunity where he can blend his views with a great cause. If he doesn’t don’t be mad when Cristoball and Oregon does.

Washington is a top 20 traditional program with a lot resources it's not Alabama, Oklahoma, Ohio State, but it's on a Clemson level those true blue bloods are not going to hire an African American so he has the next best thing.

There are a couple threads on the tug about the marriage of social justice and sports, in particular football in our case

One can want to escape from the dreary existence through sports and alcohol and still be active and aware the rest of the week

All that being said I'm a whatever works when it comes to recruiting. If Jimmy has a message that works and is real then by all means use it

So now I tune in and get to hear the opinions of a bunch of dipshit 19 year olds? Season cannot get cancelled soon enough.

say hello to Dennis Francione, Mike Shula, Mike Dubose, Bob Davie, Tommy Bowden, Rick Neuheusal, Gilbertson, etc.. Either way the point is that Lake is in a great position to take it to the next level. While being authentic when you walk into recruits households. I guess yes two blue bloods out of all the African American players in the last 100 years has hired an African American coach. Great Bro!!I

Will Larry Scott allow any players to put "FREE HONG KONG" on their jerseys or not?

ATLDawg

Either way, life and sales is about angles if Lake does not see this angle I am disappointed.

NOGAF, play football and win.....

Notice this is for 2020. A year where there won't be sports. It's brilliant. Allow it in 2020 and be a hero. But not actually have to allow it

Are Lake and or Washington getting this support from the players? I haven’t seen anything yet.

As I've said over and over for years and years, moderating sucks.

If you disagree with somebody, respectfully disagree.

If you cant express your opimnion without using some type of profanity, don't post.

Leave politics off the board.

Don't be disrespectful to the mods.

if you have a post deleted, you know why. Don 't ask us to explain. It's just asking for an argument.

Lots of complaints lately. We're just trying to keep things moving along and civil. If you can't be nice, you don't get to post.

If your ability to post is revoked, it'll more than likely be for a day or two in order to chill a bit. Unless you have a history.

Don't make us moderate.

We really need some football.
