smokinandjokin Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 I understand you cannot say such things as a NCAA coach, especially at a prestigious military academy, but he is right. I hate when there is a big hubbub about these things, and sports anchors nation-wide get on the high horse and say these remarks are insensitive, racist, etc... When is the last time UMiami had a white guy returning punts? How many white sprinters did the USA send to the last Olympics? Black dudes, overall in an athletic arena, are faster than most whiteys. Everyone knows it, but when someone actually says it, people act like it is breaking news. DeBerry doesn't need to answer to the media or to the black community. He needs to answer to the white players on his team who, as he indirectly said, he wishes were black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
