    You're a fucking nutcase.
    It really is nonstop laughs watching white people try to understand this and then get flustered that their perspective is not seen as the defining one.

    Sorry man. I do love you. I don't think you're a racist. It's not your fault - I mean that from my heart. But man, it's funny as shit.

    Man, I disagreed when you said that the Sierras were not comparable to the Cascades, but I wholeheartedly agree with you here. I feel like I'm in Psychoville and DDY is the mayor.

    Im trying to be as woke as you are, but your arguments haven't made much sense so I'm having trouble buying in. Im really concerned that UW hasnt had an openly gay player yet under coach Pete...why is he running a homophobic program?

    Great analogy. Super job. You are killing it with this.

    I think you are right PGOS - and like I said - and I want to be completely serious about this even though it sounds like I'm joking...

    1. I don't think anyone in this is a racist in the sense of like 'wants bad outcomes for black people and believes them to be inferior based on melanin count'. Let's be clear that there are many people and have been many people in the world like that. None of you guys are like that.

    2. You and me disagree a lot, but I enjoy you and I'm not trying to be a dick.

    3. You are right when you say the issue is the premises. Imagine if an alien fell to earth and was like 'how the fuck do you have an athletic team that attracts more attention than the educational system it represents?' - you would be like, 'i see that, definitely. but to understand this issue you have to really understand the history and the culture of the US to get why it's like this and why even really reasonable people care so passionately about college sports - which - admittedly doesn't make a lot of sense on the face of it' ; This is very similar to this debate. On both sides there is a fundamental misunderstanding of the history and culture that developed it and trying to bridge that without shared premises and understanding is very difficult.

    It's still funny to watch though, because white people are so used to having the 'important' perspective that they absolutely go nuts when their perspective isn't valued as the defining one. It's just a subtle aspect of being white in America, but this is why we are here.

    You guys are all rad.

    I don't know what to tell you. Watch School Daze maybe?

    Listen man, I understand what youre saying. I get you think UW is not embracing certain cultures the way it is embracing, say, Polynesian culture due to our whopping 10 polynesian receuits. You think it is coming at a cost for black players in this program.

    I just don't agree with you. I think our recruiting almost exaclty mirrors the demographics of west coast athletes.

    Can you at least answer why the SEC has more black players that had 2 black parents?

    White people probably did decide 40 years ago to come up with the lame African American moniker to describe all Black Americans so it is their fault. We are seeing today that Blacks do differentiate between slave ancestry and not. It may seem meaningless to me but who am I to judge? It probably is meaningless from a football standpoint. And that is my area of expertise as we all know.

    When I watch the NBA I wonder why we have to off shore our film room gritty gutty coaches sons to play in the league. The best white players are not from America anymore

    Maybe our whole culture is too soft for big time sports

    I do know UW has a legacy that is easy to recruit against and other schools do. Its a sad day when southern schools are more open that a west coast school. Dabo may look like an idiot in the locker room but watch the players. They respond.

    This isn't a fucking clinic, its a game. UW does not look like they have fun. They play tight. They play white. They make it easy for Eugene cock suckers to move in and cause trouble.

    Pete hasn't earned enough big wins to get a pass on obvious issues. Fix them

    This.

    Youre right, in a sense. Statistically there are 10 times more black people living in those states.

    Don't you think that is a huge factor? Oregon has recruiting ties to the south. UW has none.

    Wait, I thought Nigerians and the decedents of slaves are the same?!?!! NO!?!?! But they ALL HAVE BLACK SKIN!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

    Isn't the one drop rule around any more?!!? What is going on?!?! I'm losing my bearings!!

    I love watching white people so confused because they have absolutely no clue about entry-level experiences in black culture and are like 'IT FEELZ LIKE IM TAKING CRAZY PILLS!!!!'

    Yeah, I wonder why! lololol

    Keep going guys, you are doing super well.

    Hey bud. This topic has been going pn long before HH. This isn't new. You clearly have an interest in the topic as do many others. Because it comes up on Google isn't going to change anything. No athlete is going to make a decision on going to UW because of a forum. LOL.

    The thread is massive at doogman.

    Had Scott Jr. been offered he was coming to UW. UW didn't offer and some are butt hurt about it.

    Have you noticed UW's class? Some of the stuff on the recruiting board here directly written about a player is RUTHLESS. Look at all the crap written about Puka. Insane shit.
    I do! Though I think we can agree to disagree about the significance, or lack there of, with this thread appearing on da googles. The point of this ranking, kids talking, etc is just additional fuel to the fire OR (another stupid analogy with combustibles) where there’s smoke there’s fire. I’m not so naive as to think a message board would influence a teenager. However, it would be naive to NOT think that a number of contributing factors, potentially including a message board, would not sway a decision. Multiple factors as Jacobs dad(s) states.

    I’ll have to take a gander at the doogman thread you mention.

    I hate gee as much as the next guy. I also wish peterman would get over himself and quit being so fucking stubborn and offer jr. won’t happen though. I had to block Sr from twitter because my responses to him could’ve potentially got me in trouble. It because I’m an OKG-R but because comparing him to a female dog, my wife, and other single cell organisms would be very easy.

    I think for the most part we take a similar stance on things. (See Ballz, that’s a nice way to end a post other than “fuck you you fucking idiot” or my personal favorite, “I’m wrong and your right”)

    Go white people go!!!

    Why do all these black people keep thinking I'm biased?? They just don't get it man. White people don't think I'm racist AT ALL!!!

    If black people only understood, then they would really see - but it's really hard to make them understand when they keep telling me I'm racist!!

    Oh well, I have lots of black friends.
    I'm pretty sure I read from you or someone parroting this stuff in another thread recently that they are in fact different issues.

    Do you want Petersen to get the best players that fit the system, or do you want him to take 25 black kids who are descendant from two black parents for the sake of filling out racial quotas on the roster? For every black recruit who is potentially turned off by the roster composition at UW you could find another recruit of a different race who likes the diversity in the locker room.

    If your actual issue here is simply that the OKG culture closes doors to appealing to certain recruits I think that you're correct, and that you're just going to have to get over that and accept that Pete's ideology probably makes it more likely that the kids who fit the OKG stuff come from two parent households or whatever other metric you want to use which is to the detriment of low-income/fast strategy recruits.

    If you think that he has put the OKG stuff in place to intentionally accomplish that I think you're fucking insane. Hence my point about bias versus racism, because, no, they are not the same thing.

    I guess my question is, how does UW fix this perception?

    Address it publicly and call out the haters. Take gloves Pete. Have a kick presser and an epic hype video for the progrum.

    When you call out absurd accusations, it gives them a sliver of legitimacy. Better just to ignore it and let it fade away by winning on the field and recruiting a few more black OKG's wherever you can find them.

    PM to @DerekJohnson We have a classics board for great threads. Time to start a Hall of Shame board. This thread can be the first. This is the worst thread in a sea of shitty threads. Cook it.

    PM to you fuck heads:

    There is no racial recruiting plan were Peterson favors one race over another or half black or whatever you’re trying to say. JFC this is the fucking dumbest shit I have ever read. Ever.

    And that's saying something.
