know for a fact Justin Woodall chose Alabama because there were some in his family who didnt like Ole Miss because of its past. Granted that wasnt the only reason, but it didnt help our chances.

The point was not every black athlete says this. Nor that we lose ALOT of players because of it. But as I stated, its not gaining us any.

So because Ole Miss allegedly lost one recruit because of his family's clearly misinformed perception of Ole Miss today you should use that as the excuse to continue removing ties to Ole Miss' past even if it's not necessarily racist?

Talk about a huge, huge knee jerk reaction. You can't please everyone. Someone doing some negative recruiting could just as easily plant the seed that Ole Miss is still racist as something on campus still being affiliated with Col. Reb.
