Texasfrog Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 I've always been a huge fan of Earl Campbell. His not just the University of Texas Football royality, He is the State of Texas Football Royality and a NFL Hall-of-Famer. But I find his comments to be 100% disgusting and Racist to basically say... " The University of Texas can't win unless it has a Black QB." 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their statements would be viewed differently although Earl is getting roasted for his comments Sorry Horsefly.. Earl may not speak on an "Official capacity" for UT. But he most differently speaks as a major "Unofficial capacity" and words always hold a lot of respect for UT. You can't walk around any part of the UT athletic facilities without seeing Earl Campbell bust, photos and ect. So yes.. When he speaks.. He speaks in many ways for the UT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texasfrog Posted November 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 If a White Hall-of-Famer Athlete would say something like that about their former College football team. Every Photo, Bust, Trophy and Award of that White Athlete would be banished and put in the basement and the University would totally disavow that athlete. 100% FACT!!! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLien12x Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 The last Texas QB to win a natty was black. Maybe he’s right? He’s entitled to his opinion. Give it a go! Y’all always bringing the OT topics to the good board on game day. So silly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record all of these guys wanted to come to Texas at one time and were turned away or offered another position. Andre Ware Heisman winner; They wanted him to play CB. And he dropped 66 on their asses at UT: Ware torched Texas for 304 yards, and five touchdown passes. - Afterward Ware to the Austin American Statesman, "This was a real personal game to me. I felt like I had to make them pay for not giving me a chance." Make'em pay Andre! Jalen Hurts (Natty Champion) Jamies Winston (Heisman winner) They wouldn't return his phone call after he saw VY playing Darron Thomas (Aldine 4* QB) led Oregon on BCS Run Robert Griffin III Texas offered him as an athlete Aldine and Houston are about 175 miles east of Austin. Copperas Cove is 75 miles north. Three outstanding quarterbacks were playing high school football within three hours of the University of Texas, but the Longhorns passed on offering any of them (as quarterbacks, at least). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mack forced his sorry ass on the Horns and yes blew a chance for the Big12 and play for a NC. Texas will not ever be a power because well They are Texas. That soured me on the Horns and he isn't the only overrated one. Ehlinger is as well. Meanwhile Buechele is throwing TD's like darts at a bar. Not once have they used Roshon at QB imagine what he will do to open up space. That might be the worst top 10 list of QB's of any Power 5 program in the Country. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolebull813 Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 I think the wording was wrong. He could have made the same point without causing controversy. He could have said “athletic QB” or “dual threat” i don’t think black QBs have historically been drop back pocket passers. That’s not what you think about. You think of mobile, fast playmakers. Cam Newton is good in the pocket though. He could have just said Texas needs a more dynamic playmaker like VY and everyone would have gotten the point. But Earl is old, and isn’t scared to voice his opinion unfiltered. I have more leeway with old people 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mjd33 Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 Remember Stephan A Smith on ESPN said he views Dwayne Haskins as more of a running QB than a thrower at Ohio state pre draft? But when his stats were revealed it proved he NEVER ran the ball and only threw but wasn’t reprimanded by ESPN for those comments solely because Smith is black. Good times.
