They shouldn’t be though. I don’t blame them though. The reason is because they have been told to be. Started with the murder of carol Jenkins. The guy that actually murdered her was from Indy while passing through. You should read the book. The daughter who was very young watched her dad kill her.
People feel more comfortable with those of commonality. It's the lure of shared values. It's why lesbians flock to IU women's basketball games, successful white people converge on Carmel, East Indians reside together in huge neighborhoods on the west side of Columbus, IN and why Chicago has its Little Italy and Polish neighborhoods. It starts at the quantum world of sub atomic particles, all the way up to commonality of universes in hypothesized universal clusters...probably. Whatever it is, is okay, for it doesn't mean one is racist for supporting one particular group in favor over another. Cheer louder for Jordy Hulls when it comes naturally.
we're saying the same thing, and I agree, it's human nature not racism. The only reason there is a discussion is folks saying it is racist or might be a reason a kid would shy away from IU. Let's face it, a lot of Larry Bird's popularity wasn't just because he was a great basketball player.
This is an uncontrolled fact. NIL amount is more important than playing close to home or The academics of a school.
Yep, it was also because he was a pickup truck driving, beer drinking, grass cutting, trash picking, blue collar champion.
So any white player that’s been successful is because they had white privilege?
