Latest Rasmussen has Trump 36% with blacks and 37% Hispanics

Peopl,e of all colors thinking for themselves are getting WOKE to the fact they have been played and want nothing to do with the rioter and Marxist Controlled BLM terror organization. It probably helped seeing prominent Black people speaking at the RNC in D.C.

Two months ago, black likely voter approval for President Trump in the Rasmussen Reports daily tracking poll was at 40 percent. In August 2019, black voter approval for Trump stood at 26 percent.

Trump received 8 percent of the African American vote in 2016.

A former player from this past season told me he went out of respect for the country, not the president. He's my cousin's nephew


Yea they looked so mad about being there especially when they were doing dances and cutting up in the Oval Office

College Football players might have a different set of values than the average black voter.

Like it or not last January was a different world.

The politicization of Covid and the George Floyd/Jacob Blake stuff has taken partisanship to a whole other level.

But be that as it may, I just can’t believe a throwaway comment by O about Trump weeks ago I s why guys are leaving now. The simplest explanation is an agent/agency decided to use covid to get a foot in the LSU door and is fronting these guys a ton of money, way more than expected, to sit out this year

HE GONE!

NEWS: #LSU DT Tyler Shelvin informed the coaching staff today that he plans to opt out of the 2020 season, sources told @SINow.

He's a redshirt junior and is eligible for the 2021 draft.

It’s not even about the president’s politics though. My issue, and why I think they’re stupid, is that they let that comment overshadow their own experiences with O. That’s fricking stupid.

I personally don't understand this one,


Sure you do, you are a smart guy. A agent is in his and his families ear just like with Chase. No one will ever convince me otherwise.

Coach O didn’t walk with the players like Saban and Riley are doing and I believe it has rubbed those guys the wrong way. May even affect recruiting smh O has to do better with this I do believe he has to regain the trust of a lot of the players
This has nothing to do with it dumbass

Coach O has nothing to do with guys that want to secure their future. He has done a terrific job with that team. Players have options and when the options stop the opt out will stop. Respect their decision and next man up.

Not with the amount of tape available on him at this point. He's going to severely hamper his draft stock by sitting out. Even if he doesn't put on weight.


Dude. I’m talking about if he plays. I was not saying he will be a first round pick by not playing and simply maintaining his weight. Come on man. If he plays at a healthy weight he’s a first rounder but if he had a “MONSTER YEAR” as the other poster said, he’s a top ten pick. He is dominant if he is in shape. We just saw Joe B go from possibly undrafted to number 1 and goat status. Shelvin was already mocked to go first round. This isn’t rocket science.
