White boys lost their playing position? What the hell is that supposed to mean? You want them to play mediocre white boys rather than outstanding black boys? That's bullshit. Leave it to an ignorant white person to compensate for their lack of skill with racial innuendos.

After this thousands of white boys instantly lost their playing position

midnightlove,do u even know college football or just a 1 game fan? Have U 4got that we went to yalls house the next year after "Bear" integrated ALABAMA football and beat ya 17-10 and following that up with wins in 1977 and 1985 and are 5-2 all-time counting our wins over yall in 38 and 45. As your coack John McKay was even quoted saying,"Coach Bryant wasnt just a coach,he was THE coach". In the last 30 yrs(Modern Era)the SEC is 9-3 in National Championship games,pretty impressive,huh?

the 1970 RB for that USC team Sam "Bam" Cunningham actually comes to our football field to watch us play friday nights and he coaches our team during spring games now he still looks like he can play football at his age
