That’s just academia in general I’m betting the vast majority of faculty and U of A are also woke
I can tell you from different friends and family, even the smaller schools in Arkansas and Louisiana both are infected with woke bullshite. You wouldn’t think places like Louisiana tech or southern Arkansas university would be infected with woke but they are. Washington isn’t winning because they have way more black people locally, that’s silly. They’re winning because they have a really good coach. Wish we had him

I don't think you're fully appreciating the pure numbers advantage they have.

Looking at the roster, if you drew a ~60 mile radius circle around their campus, 34 of their players come from inside it.

If I drew that circle for us, but expanded it to ~100 miles to include Tulsa and Springfield, by my quick count we've got 15 players from inside that. That's including recruiting grounds that we by no means have a sole claim over.

My point isn't that Washington is some automatic football powerhouse, but they have some major advantages that we don't. To say otherwise is just sticking your head in the sand. Being in a better conference and being located around a better football culture is what we have to counter it.
