Not to defend the master of dragons, but the fact that Bama's only had two semi-successful African-American QBs, after nearly 40 years of integration in the SEC, is pretty remarkable.
I personally don't buy the racism angle. It's far more likely a combination of bad luck, multiple coaching changes, and some very talented white QBs who have stepped in at the right time.
That said, it is a very clearly observed historical trend. For whatever reason, black QBs don't succeed at UA very often. Here's hoping the Sims kid will overcome the odds.
