It's, uh, odd for him to say that when he just departed a coaching job at a HBCU to lead the University of Colorado. He was literally in prime position to lift up the talent pool there to draw more scouting interest.
Weirdly, some of the best players transferred with him to the non-HBCU. So the best players that COULD be drafted from the HBCU have been taken away indirectly by the hypocrite saying such shit.
Deion is an unabashed racist. We could learn from his blatant and naked inner preference and recognition of differences. He's still not smart, but he's made a lot for himself with sub-90 IQ.
Dude, HBCU's are not built on being athletic powerhouses.
HBCU's (for the most part) were based on building up black literacy and secondary education for adults that basically couldn't attend normal public or private schools with whites.
As a result, HBCU's are supposed to be primarily built for intellectual pursuits and some practical education. They're not even research universities.
Why would you expect the draft to favor them?
That being said, you absolutely shouldn't go to them as a white person because these institutions have been so ideologically captured that the staff and students are absolutely avowed racists at this point, who will actively racially discriminate against you by any means available. You shouldn't go to them as a black student either because you won't learn anything of value.
I learned to tune it out. Makes me sad as a Cowboys fan to see deion make a dumb comment. “Despite the fact that the league is already majority black, I’m going to make you feel guilty over not drafting more black players in a majority black sport”. Sounds logical
Every single one of the top ten draftees was black. Those are the guys who are going to make absolute BANK on their signing bonuses, think 30-some million bucks or so. And that’s fine! Teams pick the best player that fits their needs, they don’t give a rip about color, these kids earned the money. …they just tended to play for big state schools, where you’d expect the absolute best college players to be. HBCUs aren’t even Division I FBS, they’re in lower divisions for football, mostly Division I FCS, some are in Division II also. There aren’t that many non-BCS players drafted each year, period.
So this is just stupid as hell on all counts. As another user says, “It’s never enough.” There does seem to be a bit of a Current Year movement to get big name black players to go to HBCUs, so if that keeps up their draftee numbers will increase, but honestly no superstar recruit is going to spend their full college career in a lower division. I bet we’ll see plenty start there but piss off to big-time programs as their stars rise.

Good work, Deion!

Maybe the HBCUs don't pay enough. Don't care about fuzzball though, just corruption.
It’s never enough

So luv ya Deion, but this is a piss-take my man.
