Hundreds of community members and those within the FSU athletics program gathered at the iconic, symbolic "Unconquered" statue on Langford Green Saturday for a unity march to bring attention to racial inequality in the United States. Initiated by Cory Durden and supported by head coach Mike Norvell, both took the opportunity to address the crowd and call for support before the march.

Yep. College football is going to be brutal this fall. Kneelers, ESPN virtue signalling, etc. No thanks. I won’t be taking that weekly beating.

How about this at FSU games: set up a multi question test including simple math and english. Require a 70% passing grade to be able to play that day. Hope they have enough to staff a team.

When I first began posting on Twit about the NFL, a number of people said “That’s it! I’m just going to watch college ball from now on.”

Except the colleges are going the same way as the pros. They will all be kneeling.

This may be a good thing. If it forces, say 50% of the fans and donors to withdraw, it would severely affect college revenues. It would probably affect endowments too. This may be one of the ways to break the universities is have them go Full BLM.

Ya never go Full BLM.

Let's hope the donors get wind of this and withdraw their money - just as some of them did after Ivanka Trump's speech was canceled:

It’s beginning to look like if one wishes to participate in college football any longer, either playing or coaching, there is now only one right answer.

Same goes for buying tickets or watching on TV, or taking interest in general.

Life changes, life goes on.
