not on here a lot so haven't seen the other posts, just caught the 30 for 30 on espnu. but we didn't want to integrate when Bear said we should. can't remember the exact situation but it was something about how bear wanted black players if A&M wanted to win and the administration said no.

but espn didnt make a film about it so its not as big of a deal


And?

Bear set up games against SC who had a black QB to show the bama faithful it was time to integrate, the whipping they took on the field convinced them.

He wasn't a prejudiced man.

my point is that ole miss isn't the only school with race as a negative part of history, and showed an example of my own school doing such things

This topic is old. Yes we did stupid shite that all other Deep South states did. It's past, the riot was like 5 dumbass freshmen, and now Meridith walks through the grove and everyone stops to take a picture with him. Talking about it just opens up old wounds that doesn't help anything.
