    Didn't Travis Hunter first go to a HBU because of the whole George Floyd incident and ensuing racial demonstrations? I remember hearing that it was going to be the new thing for black athletes but even Hunter ended up at a P5 school with a huge bag of money. I agree that none of these players are going to pass up new cars and bags of cash to make a political statement. They'll do the same thing that Hollywood stars do, make a ton of money and then pretend to be upset about the government not helping out poor people by posting online from their million dollar homes.
    "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

        Please do a little more digging and verify whether this is a correct statement.

          University of Utah can point at the new congressional district drawn up to get a Dem to D.C. from Utah and say to the NAACP that, despite what is happening elsewhere, in SLC we SEE YOU. Should land us so many black 5* recruits.

                Pretty gross review. That clock expired.

                    Did the 72 fiba refs come down and give the Michigan Western Michigan officials advice. Obvious no time on the clock.

                        That is so bad. Unbelievable.

                          Kyle Whittingham continues to be the luckiest college football coach alive.

                            The footage the B1G released does show that there was time left on the clock. So it appears that NBC's clock being off caused this absolute shit storm.

                              Kyle’s first game at Michigan and already a controversy over the clock. Now that’s a debut that was perfectly timed.

                                Was the big 10 explanation biased. Or right!
