WVU player got drafted. Saban said that was a recruit he lost. Then he said he went after him every year in the portal. Except he never entered the portal. He stayed at WVU. So Saban admitted to tampering.
But it was a rhetorical question. Saban was never constrained by recruiting rules.
Plus he likes to claim that because his uncle was smart, that means he’s smart. He’s big on inheritance that way. (Except in cases of rape resulting in pregnancy, of course. That unwanted child should totally be brought to term an won’t inherit the violent criminal nature of their father.)
He would have said he meant it. And if you asked him about it now, he’d say that was part of the jest. That’s his schtick. He says everything and he says nothing. He’s completely full of shit and will not hesitate to say he never said something when we have a recording of him saying it. Without shame he’ll insist he never said it and blame the factual record for being “woke” or “DEI” or a “loser.” And somehow it will work for him.
A good number of them are racists and/or misogynists who used Trump’s bullshit as an excuse not to vote for a black woman. They didn’t have to believe him but it gave them cover. And they’ll make excuses for him now while insisting how much worse things would be if Kamala were elected.
He doesn’t. He only cares about how it plays on tv. He’s producing season 2 of his reality show presidency and Hegseth will be fine until/unless Trump decides he’s getting in the way of the spectacle.
Hard to say because it’s unsourced and only qualifies as “something I saw on the internet.” It’s not credible. It sounds true but it could just as easily be bullshit so it’s just noise.
Go White.
As soon as? Lulz. Good one. But that’s inaccurate. Cannabis has never been a drug exclusively or predominantly used by minorities. That claim was propaganda promoted by special interests advocating prohibition back in the 30’s. That included changing the spelling of marihuana to marijuana in order to create an association with those lazy Mexicans. It’s true that the penalties for use are more severe for black and brown people. But there’s no evidence that they’ve ever used more than white people.
Cannabis use became much more widespread in the 50’s and 60’s so even if accurate, the “as soon as” assertion would be laughable because decriminalization/legalization is a recent development. But the most severe prohibitive measures were enacted by Nixon who made it a Schedule I drug alongside heroin in 1970. That was in retaliation against protesters of the Vietnam War who were predominantly young and white. The aim was to associate pot use with the hippies and use it as a weapon against the antiwar movement. Heroin was associated with the black community and used as cover to investigate, arrest, and jail their leaders.
There is racism in our drug laws. The best example is probably the 100-to-1 disparity in the penalty for trafficking crack vs. powder cocaine where 5g of crack got you 5 years while it took 500g of powder cocaine to get the same sentence.
