Earl... Earl ... Earl

said that we have to have a black QB, and based on current demographics of the highest performers in the country in college, hes correct
FB....I could not agree more. Earl is like a UT football highest of the high award winner. He can say whatever he likes about UT football and I wont give a thought to whether I agree with the message or not.Anything Earl says about UT football is worth listening to.Bobby Lane, Tommy Nobis, and Earl can/could say any damned thing they want.
Earl doesn't get a pass on this one because he doesn't need one. There's no offense committed.
It's called an "opinion".
Watch this----
You have a better chance of winning a national title if you have a big, fast, strong, quick running back who is African American, than you do if he is white.
Anybody remember the last white running back that was a starter that won a national title?
Case closed.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand just like that----
You proved my point on pretty much every single level.
That Racist word is a dangerous word around here to be using on the forum..Walkin Boss get a hold of your ass you
won't like it too much...
I'm going to address you like an adult would though I feel you're trolling.
Earl is many things. Articulate is not one of them. He's never been a wordsmith. I've spent an inordinate around of time around him starting in college and then for years after. The two men on this planet that Earl loved more than anyone other than his momma were Darrel Royal and Bum Phillips. He called them his "dads" because he grew up without one. He had true love in his heart for those two men. I have seen on too many occasions the mutual admiration those two men and he had for each other.
That's not what racist people do or how racist people act. Period.
I can say with complete confidence that what Earl did a poor job of articulating was this:
Black quarterbacks, on average, are faster and have quicker feet than white quarterbacks. And----- he's right.
Black quarterbacks can scramble, on average, better than white quarterbacks thus extending the play thus giving the offense more time to make something happen.
And---- he's right.
Yes, there are outliers-- Johnny Manziel, Baker Mayfield etc. But there have been WAY more mobile black QBs in college that have had success than mobile white QBs.
The problem with what Earl said is its true, and you just don't like the way he said it. I didn't like the way he said it either, but having dealt with old school Earl on many occasions, I know what he was trying to say.
Now, if you feel the need to make a snap judgement about a man who was a lion on the field and a kitten off it, just because he grew up in a poor home and isn't a wordsmith, then you're simply looking for a reason to be offended.
And if you're looking for a reason to play the victim, or be offended by something that was poorly worded by a man who bashed his head in to entertain people on a football field, then the problem isn't Earl. The problem sir, is you.
What Earl said was not that bad. The world would be a lot better place if people could say what they think without fear of people trying to ruin them. Blacks are fast, Asians are good at math & Jews are smart. All stereotypes, and often true. Just don't be the fool who says it in real life. Earl just forgot to pretend he doesn't notice the world around him, like we've all been taught to do.
I don’t mind people saying what they feel but what if the table was turned. Vince Young’s Soph. season he loses a game and some former white player says we can’t win because we need a white quarterback. Think about the whining that would of happened. Both statements in my opinion would be stupid!
First of all... Earl Campbell is entitled to his opinion, just like the rest of us.
Secondly... He makes an interesting point that deserves discussion, not criticism.
Most importantly... He’s Earl Freakin’ Campbell and has more than earned the right to say whatever he wishes regarding Texas football.
When you get your statue erected on our campus, you can do the same.

this statement shows your opinion is not worth reading , nor debating
ah, he's an old man that grew up in a different time. just like red mccombs. i will say, though, that if every position played on par with sam for the past 2 years, we'd have exactly 1 loss, and that would've been last week. white or black, OUR qb is outstanding, and certainly not the reason we have 3 losses.
Average QB with some leadership and I hope you live long enough to become old.
anyone offended by what Earl said just wants to be offended. go be a fan of a school in california or something.
