If you want the best chance to win a national title; Bama is the best place to be. If you care about literally anything else like academics, campus life, environment, diversity, team brotherhood, coaches that care about you as a human being, and post-football opportunities; Bama is not the best place to be.
Biggins is saying Irvin was ready to commit to USC, then heard the Lake news and UW instantly became his leader. Then Bama offered and now everything is up on the air.

Academic smack is for losers.
Lake is reportedly not against negative recruiting. I might emphasize how Alabama is where they stuck with a QB from the South who literally can't throw for an entire year over a better QB from the West until they were absolutely forced to play him. Would Irvin get a fair shake compared to some DBs they bring in from Florida or Georgia?Not to mention that being black in the South is a whole lot different than being black in the West.
Seattle is not a paradise of race relations and there are not a whole lot of Black folk to begin withThe modern south has a lot going on for a larger Black population. Atlanta is the Black capital of the USA3,2,1 for someone to prove I am talking out my ass without looking up numbers and shit

Atlanta is the Black capital of the USA3,2,1 for someone to prove I am talking out my ass without looking up numbers and shit Sorry, but you couldn't be further off. Atlanta is an island in a sea of shit for people of color in the south. The elected leaders of southern states (people like Jeff Sessions) STILL have abysmal records on civil rights issues compared to elected leaders in other parts of the country. Case in point, the new laws springing up over the past couple years designed to disenfranchise black voters are primarily concentrated in the south: https://nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/new-voting-laws-south-could-affect-millions-african-americans-n639511Want more facts/data? Happy to walk through how the south fled to the republican party after civil rights legislation passed by Kennedy and LBJ, and how those republicans have supported policies/judges/political candidates that have completely worked against the interests of African Americans. Another big factor was Barry Goldwater's opposition to the Civil Rights Act and his speech at the republican convention in 1964. Believe me, I have a library to back this up.And nobody thinks Seattle is a "paradise" for race relations, but if you look at the civil rights record of Seattle/Olympia versus southern states, it's really no contest. They're worlds apart.3, 2, 1 for someone to tell us to move to the "tug" bored, which I don't visit.

There's a lot more to life than politics though.

There's a lot more to life than politics though. Brilliant response. "There's a lot more to life than politics?" Uhhh....you mean like investments in public health and education? Literacy rates? Economic opportunities? Things like that?Not sure if you're aware, but "politics" (i.e., who you elect) has a significant impact in determining all of those things.
Please don't make this into a discussion about race in the south. Last time that happened BallzDeep immediately nuked the thread and put it well over its retard quota. No one wants that.

LOL at the old, rich, white guy in Seattle advising on what it's like in the southeast for a black kid from "the west".
