I bet you whitey is subsidizing all of this.
I think this is a hall of fame for players from black colleges, not college players who happened to be black. Black colleges came into existence because most colleges did not allow blacks to attend, or severely restricted their numbers.
So why are there still black colleges?
They’re a relic. Institutional inertia keeps them operating, but the private ones won’t last more than another generation, if that, as their endowments run out.
