Funny you mentioned that, Jagdaddy. When time came for daughter to look at colleges, looked at the school demographics, to see what percentage of Asian/Americans were there. And back in the day, in SF, Asians fought for, and won, a guaranteed percentage of enrollment at the 'best' (Lincoln) HS in SF. In later years, that percentage became an upper limit, and the Asian population argued for getting rid of that percentage. Apropos of exactly nothing.

I'm just kind of curious as to whether no "DEI" and "only meritocracy" can or will be read by one or more "elite" institutions to prohibit inclusion of less-qualified white kids who happen to be multi-generational legacies with big donor parents, and, if so, what the feds will do should such big donors complain to them about it.

Will be interesting (to me at least), to see how this Baker guy fares when tOSU plays Texas in late summer. He was before Seaton and Sanders in the Buckeye's hopes and dreams. Does anyone recall if Sanders got on the field in the playoffs (against the Buckeyes certainly)? Did see that Seaton was starting at LT for Colorado, but Deion's sizzle didn't translate into wins up there. Anyway, it sounds like tOSU is doing better than usual in OL recruiting this year. Still more to be written. Go Bucks!

I'll reply to this in the 2025 Recruit thread as to not clutter Cantwell's thread

Early enrollees weren't allowed to play, but could dress and be on the sidelines. That's why you saw so many pics of guys like Devin Sanchez, Riley Pettijohn, TSC, etc on the sidelines for the NC, Cotton Bowl, etc. So Sanders wouldn't have been allowed to play in the 1st round game, but could be on the sidelines. He was practicing with the team at home in Knoxville, but he also had an obligation to play in the Polynesian bowl(get that free Hawaiin vacay for the family) in January.
And Seaton did start for CU, and looked solid in pass coverage, and more average in run blocking, but that also has to do with the offensive scheme being so pass dominant. And actually CU finished 9-4, so Deion's sizzle did translate to wins. He's actually had the best season since Mel Tucker's 1 year in 2019 at CU. He took a 1-11 team, to 4-8 and then 9-4. And that upward trajectory has kept Seaton there.
