Disparate impact.
I'm still
I predict this will be the outrage subject on this site for the next 4-6 months. Then Smalls will commit to UW and we'll forget about it and move on to the next thing to hate about the program

The OKG shit absolutely is racist!...against Mexicans and Asians. Where are all the Mexican and Asian players huh? I'm sure there's plenty out there who would try really hard too. The majority of our team is Black and Poly. That's not fair.
And yes, the OKG shit is also elitist. We are an elite university with elite coaching and NFL development. We want elite football players who are also elite human beings. Sav'ell is an all around elite player and person so he's the personification of an OKG. My response to Oregon would be, the NFL sure does seems to love OKG's and hate whoever the fuck is at Oregon. What round did Jalen Jelks get drafted? You don't want to put your future in the hands of a bunch of clowns who will waste your talent and won't prepare you for the NFL and life after football as well as UW will. You also know a school and coaching staff doesn't have much to offer you if they have to resort to slandering other schools and coaching staffs that are better than them in every way with lies and venom instead of telling you what they have to offer. Be weary of the snakes and the fakes. Coach Pete is a real one and all his current and former players would tell you that (including the Black ones).

All you have to do to dispute this is post a video of say who say what.
If this was really a church school, we wouldn't have that chant, wouldn't have McGary telling Pullman to eat his ass, and wouldnt have our DBs and DB coach talking shit to the pac 12 at all times
That said, I miss Azeem talking shit to everyone all of 2016. That defense with him and Mathis healthy was one of the best I've seen in college.

Yes and no. The fact that this offensive scheme licks sweaty taints isn’t going away anytime soon.

Here’s a thorough discussion of this:

Seems weird that that would work all of a sudden when he already withstood years of hearing the same thing from Joey T.

Heard they hit him and his parents with a LOT of evidence.
The evidentiary value of information depends on your default assumption.
If the assumption is that (as white people always happily see as the case) no one is biased, then you have to prove bias beyond a reasonable doubt.
However, any black person knows there is bias everywhere and now Pete is going to have some splaining to do. Which is good. It's weird what's happening to our program.
We are getting very non-black.
We are getting EXTREMELY non Black American Culture.
We have like 1 starter out of 22 who is from a 'traditional' black home? Salvon. Everyone else has one white parent, is African, etc.
White people think that this all adds up to nothing and are FRANKLY SHOCKED that you would DARE to question their OBVIOUSLY PURE motives and processes.
Black people are like 'uh, yeah, can you explain why that is?'

That's because you're white and see things through the white people lens.
Oh, we just happened to not recruit Tre'Shaun (Sav'ell's friend) and we are just happening to not recruit Gee Scott and DJ Rodgers (insert white people 'case by case basis' excuse here). And now Justin Flowe, Kayvon and Darnell Washington are all guys that haven't really been on our radar.
And, under Pete we have gotten one white parent or African parents on almost everyone... white people are like 'this is nitpicky' because they don't understand how stupid that sounds to people who live in black culture (which is not a monolith). This is like a little kid thinking that them saying they didn't eat a cookie when chocolate chips are all over their face is convincing.
White people are like 'HOW DARE YOU ACCUSE ME OF RACISM' and black people are like 'uh, look around'.
I don't think Pete is a racist, but I think Pete defines OKG in such a way that it so heavily slants toward slow strategy 'at least one white or African' parent, private school light skin u kids.
If you don't understand the difference between Kevin King's household and Aaron Fuller's or Ariel Ngata's then you just aren't really familiar with modern black life in America on any level.

There's something to be said for actions are greater than words ...
As Dennis mentioned, I don't think that there's anything overtly racist in our program. I do think that there's some component of OKG that tilts more slower strategy than not.
However, there's some things that have been bubbling below the surface for a while on this subject that I do think that there's some part of the message that we have to be aware of and actively go about proving that it's not the case.
It's awfully warm for December of February ... the fact that you have schools that are actively going to this level of strategy in their recruiting at this point tells me that they know that they are coming at this from a very unfavorable position and are trying to knock UW down.
In the end, successful selling of anything is way more likely when you are talking about why you should buy your product than why you shouldn't buy another product.

I don't think Pete is a racist. But it's like saying 'i don't think Pete actually wants his dog to bit people' - if the dog bites people and Pete explains it away every time as a product of unique circumstances, you have to be like 'does Pete REALLY want the dog not to bite people if he's not doing anything to prevent it?'
