At some point we will realize the absurdity of our ways, that we are only hurting ourselves with this ignorance and perpetual racism. ☮

From UA's own core values:

The University of Alabama is committed to undergraduate education that produces socially-conscious, ethical and well-rounded leaders who are grounded in their subject matter and capable of controlling their own destinies.

Of course, they WANT diversity for football and basketball teams.

I am sure they are complying with state laws against being civilized human beings, which red states love. I work at a red state university and people know it is going to happen here, and at every other public university in the state, and that nothing can be done to stop it and educated people know that this is hateful policy.

That being said, whatever the athletics programs want, they are going to get. Republicans like nothing better than simply using people for their own satisfaction.

100% guarantee they would reinstate them.

for their services the politics are probably secondary to most of them. Also, where they go can mean a more likely professional career later. Not to say the politics don’t matter but the athletes (particularly in major sports) are looking after short and long term income opportunities as well as what is taking place in their state governments.

they would have no experience interacting with different people.
