My cousin is about to commit to Ole Miss & I don't like it

Being an ex college football player, though at the FCS (1AA) level, I’d suggest going somewhere you will actually feel good about without considering football. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying to go to like an Alcorn just because they’re an HBCU, but definitely may want to consider going to the best “fit” for you. A lot of that will be determined by how he grew up. If he’s used to being in those kinds of spaces, Ole Miss....as fukked up as their history is, and a lot of the people in that state are, may not be as bad for him as it may be for most others. As for myself, if I could go back and do everything over again, I’d have gone to a larger HBCU or a PWI that had a pretty sizable black population on campus (Univ. of Memphis, or Maryland, for example).

The "white girls" issue you have will happen everywhere breh. If he goes to Michigan, Oregon or Wake Forest. The southern schools might be more blatant with it but please believe...wherever your cousin goes to school white girls will be in abundance.

It's up to your cousin whether he wants to play in the snow or not...

Tell your cousin those white girls throwing the p at him on his official visit are not students but paid escorts shipped in.

Y'all think Hugh Freeze got fired for fukking escorts? Much deeper

Tell him he should go to a school where the coach is well entrenched. Coaching turnover is something that can fukk your career all up. A coach who recruited you is infinitely more likely to do right by you than some new guy coming in.

Race ish will be the same most everywhere. He should ask to talk to some black student/faculty groups on his visits. See what the actual culture is like on campus.

When I had a chance to go to Miss St, my dad, seated on the carpeted floor looking at my letters, said “NOPE” and kept it moving to the next item.

Talk to his Mom or Pops and hope they get all in their feelings about that state.

Starkville better than oxford tho in terms of the racial issues. They call it starkvegas during the school year

If he’s a receiver then ole miss might be good for him with the current scheme. Fact is honestly your cousin is gonna get flooded by white women the next 3- to 4 years of his life anyway.

There’s no escaping pawging in the deep south in college


The entire state of Mississippi is one giant confederate flag tho so let your cousin know when he stops catching passes, the cacs stop smiling.

show him some clips of malcolm x and Muhammad ali. what other schools are in his top 4?

damn shame Black men get some caught up over white girls, they are legit the EASIEST group to get with. no special at all. especially at that age

It's not the fact that they're white, it's the fact that they think he's simple-minded enough to choose a school cuz of the white girls

And thinking about how many young black men are playing there because of a white girl fetish

I understand your frustrations OP. If I had a kid who played ball I’d encourage him to sign anywhere but Ole Miss.

They waved confederate flags in the stands & had a plantation owner as a mascot roaming the sidelines for decades till they realized “these symbols are keeping us from signing the best black players”. That’s why they’ve been ass since integration.

They have to pay top players to go there, they can’t even do that right. They’re about to get hammered for benefits to recruits.

fukk ole miss


What’s funny is Mississippi State was the first SEC school to ever have a black head coach in Sylvester Croom in the early-mid 2000s. Miss State is way more forward thinking than Ole Miss, & MSU is full of Mississippi natives. Ole Miss is full of cacs from all over the country who are in love with old southern heritage & symbolism

Mississippi State is dope, I remember Chris Relf (black QB) a couple years ago lol

Miss St is a lot more progressive than Ol Miss. My boys niece is a freshman starter on their volleyball team. Her family are far from naive and backed her decision to go there saying the school is forward thinking.

Waits for the spin thread

 

[Ineedmoney504]

Op where y’all from? If y’all not from Mississippi it’s really know reason to go to Ole miss. But if your cousin is good he gonna stand out anywhere

 

[PortCityProphet]

let's all get down to the real issue...how much they drop off in that bag?

next issue is coaching. their head coach won't be there long which means his position coach isn't going to be there either. Push him somewhere with some good coaching Ole Miss ain't it.:bamafdup:


next issue what does he value other than some trash used run through box? Cause if he making his decision on that then ain't no saving him:bamafdup:

if you aren't confident he's intelligent enough to navigate the situation where he goes is irrelevant

a fool is a fool on any campus

the hoes could be green purple whatever if he's bird.food he's bird.food
