[Big Red Said]

won't be here this semester

Would have been nice to get him in early!

 

[iruletheskool]

hopefully we get him at all..

 

[HawkeyeHater]

If he won't be here this semester....... my guess is he won't be here at all and will be going JUCO and will open up recruiting again this fall..........

 

[Brasky]

He sure talks a mean game on his fb...

 

[Brasky]

... scratch that, he took his fb down. That's a BAD sign.

 

[Brasky]

He missed by a point and is retaking in the spring. I really thought he was comin, he sure was tellin everyone on fb what a big shot college boy football player he is now..

I hate to be racist, but i'm about to say something that will seem really racist. You hardly see white kids in this situation...

I know. But it's almost black history month so I get a pass. That and i'm not racist.

I'd just be interested to know the actual stats on blacks vs whites failing to qualify academically when offered a scholarship to a D1 school.

LMAO

Nice lead in and re-stipulation...

Here is some data for you to consider... I will note... I am aware of a few Black people who are associated with the program (NU Athletics) who have scored at the top of the list... I will however leave it at that.. But since you are asking the Q. (I figured I may as well help you find the answers you were seeking!!!)

Average ACT Composite Score by Race/Ethnicity
SAT Ethnic Group Scores (Math/Verbal+total)

• American Indian---482/480 (962)
• Asian American-----575/508 (1083)
• African American-----426/431 (857)
• Puerto Rican----457/448 (905)

Other Hispanic----464/457 (921)

• White-----534/529 (1063)
• Other ----513/501 (1014)

----------------------------------------------------

• African American ----16.9
• American Indian---18.7
• Caucasian---- 21.7
• Mexican American----18.3
• Asian American---- 21.8
• Hispanic----19.0
• Other ----19.3
• Multiracial-----20.9
• Prefer Not to Respond -----21.8
• No Response-----20.1

These figures are from 2003, so if you want current numbers... here you go..... College Admissions - SAT - University & College Search Tool

and

ACT: Resources for Education and Workplace Success


I will close by saying you are not wrong in your assessment that Blacks have a more difficult time with studies... and really there is no excuse...

If you want to hear some theories’s and are really that interested in learning why.... you can go here...

A Large Black-White Scoring Gap Persists on the SAT

I'm sorry....



But the kid is obviously a dumbass.........

He appears to be struggling..... Not sure what’s up with that...

 

[iruletheskool]

He was like .25 points off from qualifying.. give him a break, he's trying to get into school and hopefully he didn't waste a year of his life by not going to JUCO right away

Can't you start taking these tests when you are 15...........



By his junior year he should have known he had the ability to maybe play college ball........



That was 3 years ago.....



Missed by point .25.........



Don't athletes only need a 16 or 17.......





I took it drunk my senior year and got a 14..... and I mean DRUNK.... As in the test started at 8.... I got there at 7:30...... and had been drinking since 11 or so......

Only reason I went is because I promised my mom I would take it one last time..... Even though I had a good enough score my freshman year to get into unl......




I mean- if the kid has dyslexia or something like that, then it's understandable.....

But if he has actually been trying hard, and still can't pass.......
