For years, I thought that the service academies were the only lily white programs left in the NCAA. Considering they are military, the recruitment is tough enough. Can you imagine being a 17-18 year old football star? Army wants you to play for them but, you can exceed a certain weight, which is very minimum considering most SEC linebackers, you have to sign your life away for the military for six years with no chance of a NFL contract until after you leave the service - considering NFL still wants you 6 years after youre college career.
Dont get me wrong - Graduating West Point ect ect, is a glorious achievement but the recruitment is just dismal. So the football team elected to THIS
There isnt a lily white program in College Football anymore. None.

David Robinson played basketball for the Naval Academy and he isnt exactly short. There are waivers for certain things.
Napoleon McCallum had a pretty nice NFL career after military as well. Those schools are not traditional football powers, but if you have the intellect to go there, the physical ability to play, and the willingness to serve your country first, you can still play pro.

I have a hard time believing KU football cheats in any way possible. If we do, we're terrible at it.

What about BYU? Are there any black Mormons?
