You wrote all this just to show you don't even understand the context of my post. Go look for some background before you get in my alerts acting overemotional. We don't even disagree on the larger point but most y'all write drivel just to try and argue something that isn't there.

Says the fukk boy who shyt on 17 year olds whove grown up their ENTIRE lives seeing their families band aid their way through problems then saying its selfish on their part when a University offers them a band aid to address their family’s immediate needs.
“tHey ArE sElfiSh!”
fukk you for calling that a trotted out trope. Who the fukk does that besides a fukk boy?

The online over emotional claim because I disagree with your post bullshyt. There is nothing I didn't understand about the context of your post at all. nikka I just said I disagreed and gave reasons why. Y'all truly have to stop acting like bytches and trying to claim something over emotional just because someone disagrees with certain aspects of what you said. I wrote no drivel but I see you're another online poster that can't have your awesome pov challenged.

Picking a school for free is not the topic at hand, it’s more so, you can pick any hotel but would you rather stay at the 5 star or 2.5-3 star because some person said it was a great idea
The top hoopers are brought and paid for by the shoe companies, ya'll forget, college Basketball at the highest level is a BUSINESS.
FYI the dude you quoted is not black
Clemson pay players the most with UbaGA. Modern Basketball recruitment is tapped in central. Football is different as one player just isn't that significant on average
It works on college hoops when you create the players, redshirt them and take a HBCU all of the way through.
Problem is if you were in this position as a 17/18/19 year old and saw the stark differences in setups (and let's not even get into the bagman bread), would YOU still decide to hit up the HBCU? Especially growing up not having as much in life up to that point for a good chunk of black prep athletes?
We gotta be realistic. It's easy for grown cats to say this, but capitalism makes this an uneven playing field. You'd have to get the top black athletes in mass to do this for YEARS in order to change the tide. And to make shyt worse, you really think cacs are gonna let this slide? They'll legalize paying athletes and the whole 9 before they let their system crumble to HBCUs. They play dirty. We'd have to do it too.
The onus isn't on these kids, it's on the adults like Jemele and others. Get some black bagmen, hell start with one HBCU and build from there. I think we are all for it and WANT this to happen, but that's selfish as fukk to ask these kids to do shyt that most nikkaz championing this goto HBCU shyt right now know damn well they wouldn't have done at the same age.

What's so sad about all this is, the ones that don't even go to the NFL draft, those players that have played for these cacs schools, end up working in odd jobs. At least going to these cac schools, you should be set up to make a 6 figure salary, knowing the connects, these dudes end up working at Home Depot or being has beens
Playing in front all those cacs and not one can get you a 6 figure job?
Do you have a six figure job? What six figure jobs do you know of where you don't need to have the skill to do the job.
If you have a general studies degree what do I look like giving you a six figure job? Maybe a 50k a year job.....
It's like everything, we say this because we are on a message board and well, it's not my life. We are intentionally selfish and that's normal but in reality, it's a dumbass decision to choose PVAMU over OU as an athlete. As a student, it makes sense as in the right major and grades can get you more access at the HBCU as the PWI is for non blacks to get jobs, not really for us to get jobs.
But for athletics, PWI, especially power or mid major is a much better than most HBCUs. NCA&T is the only one with real money and real connections. Their grads get hired by a lot of corporations. It makes sense to go there. Doesn't make sense go to Tennessee as a student whenever they have internships and opportunities, they don't tell you how it's really gotten. While whites go to the advisor and he has them at top notched companies since their freshman year.
So like anything, it's about what you can get out of it. HBCUs don't work for athletes even if it seems on surface it will as sports is a white money dominated market even if we are the labor.
You and your friends might work for the mill site but is it your mill site even if you are the labor or is it the owners? Whites work all level of big time athletics outside of the labor

So you're overemotional and you have poor reading comprehension skills? I don't care about your situation, so go bore someone else with the details kiddo.
