wasnt really directed at you individually, this stuff just gets ridiculous when posters start arguing over a tenth of a second and derails the whole thread.

Quinn and Speedy probably run around the same 40, but Speedy has ELITE change of direction skills...

I would bet that the ranking analysts are overwhelmingly white, so that kind of blows the reverse racism out of the water.


Racial profiling is a form of racism. Whites can profile whites, blacks with blacks, Asian with Asians, etc. A white kid and a black kid could both walk onto a basketball court with the same size, height, and build. If none of the kids know each other, chances are that the black kid will get selected first by the team captain.

Let me say this...some won't like it...we are not all the same...I live in Asia currently...Thais are different than Chinese...Malaysians are different fom Japanese....get over it....your progressive/socialist education is showing up in your propaganda that you probably don't recognize as such...lol...don't think in a box...don't live in a box....it's more profound to ask,"What the frick is a box?"....now go live an authentic life!

I live in Japan and profiling runs rampant here and there are no discrimination laws to protect non-ethnic Japanese. If there are then it is not enforced. Business owners have the right to refuse service to foreigners and quite a few locals here look down on other Asians. Of course Japan is considered a homogenous society so there is little that can be done about it.

But Americans have been bull-shitted into a reality that never existed in the past and will cause a lot of pain in the future. I could tell stories that would curl your some ears. Get ready and "Come to now!" as Charlie once said. It's about to get really interesting....world-wide....

White or Black...He still has to catch the rock and get open. I think he can do both in the slot. He was smart to commit before the season started. Speedy may but fast as hell but may not have good hands. The objective is to catch the Rock and extend offensive drives that result in touchdowns or fgs. Plain and Simple. Speed sucks if You can't run routes or catch the football.

not really, my dad founded IBM. I inherited $350 million and live on a yacht in the Caribbean. I'm working on an auto-biography though.

But if you look at the big tall, strong and fast receivers in the NFL right now. Trey will never grow into that type of frame.


He's the same size as Roddy White, Michael Crabtree, and Hakeem Nicks right now.

Tom Lemming spoke of this...no Indiana Tiger..it's not blown out the water...true most of the recruiting services are done by whites...maybe it was their lack of athleticism back in the day that says no way a white dude can do all of this...they simply DO NOT PASS THE "EYE TEST"...it acceptable to lose with black dudes; but heaven forbid you lose with white dudes...

ESPN's Top 100 WR's included only 7 or 8 whites( not including half a dozen bi-racial).... even the NFL is not that out of proportion

There will always be the politically correct gritty, blue collar overachieving; gets the most out of his ability little white WR's that will have to continue huff & puff their way probably as walk-ons like Welker, Nelson,Sanzenbacher, Abbederis, etc...to catch their attention...you have to have freakish video game numbers just to get noticed.

Randy Moss on FOX last night's half-time show had to remind/correct everybody Andrew Luck ran the same 40 time as Cam Newton & was just as athletic; after hearing someone say Luck did not look athletic...It's PERCEPTION....

White skill guys are going thru what the black QB endured in the 70's & 80's...plain & simple

& With Lester Earl...any white boy attempting to start at LB in the SEC...How dare DJ Welter fend off all challenges so far! He doesn't bother to see Chad Greenway & rookie Luke Kuechly led the NFL in tackles in the NFL! Don't have to be from the SEC!

Les Miles had a special talk w Quinn during the recruiting process on these perceptions & said "no way was he comparing him to Wes Welker"...FACT!

Year back I had a friend that was being recruited by D-1 Colleges out of HS as a QB...a injury hit his team...he had to move to tailback(a good one too)...& the colleges all backed off...he had to WALK-ON at NW La were he became a D-2 All American WR...became an undrafted free agent for the Carolina Panthers & was on the Saints Practice Squad for a while

How do you earn the right to post here? By paying your internet provider?

If that is true, all forms of racism are not against the law or bad.

If you are looking for a white, black, or green suspect, racial profiling is using common sense, not being a bigot.

The recruiting services are going to be in a quandary if TQ breaks Green-Beckham's national receiving record. That would make him pretty much an auto 5* and a top 50 level guy. If they cant see that then they discredit their rating service...
