You're still just bitter about being written out, Rufus.

Leavin' me out's okay because you still got twelve white boys to choose from.

Whether they shopped the guy's head on the photo or not (they did) doesn't change the fact that they had to stage a photo of non-threatening Carlton-in-a-gown diversity in the first place. They scoured the campus to make sure they had one token in the mix.

At least they knew better than to look under center on the football team.

Bless you, my son. You shall receive the reward of eternal Sapphire & Tonic-drenched lap dances at Diamonds.

A lap dance from Sapphire is OK, but don't want Tonic if she's drenched - drenched in what?

Meanwhile, Auburn started 5 black QBs in one game this weekend. That's got to be a record. And one that will probably stand for a long time.

Nick Marshall, Jeremy Johnson, Jonathan Wallace, Cameron Artis-Payne, and Kiehl Frazier all went under center.

I think I had some ancestors that would use a 22 black person team to take the field. Beat that, Auburn.

It was like the Mr. Black Awareness Pageant!

This has me thinking. Is Auburn not black QB U?

I would think this is one of those things that's better left unsaid, but it really should be a point of pride.

Five black QBs in one game has got to be a record that will not be broken any time soon.

Black QBs that have started at Auburn just from memory:
Marshall
Johnson
Wallace
Frazier
Newton
Burns
Campbell
Craig
Slack
Washington
Thomas

Does any other school come close to this?

Grambling

I'm throwing in Southern and Tuskegee.

In 1981 and 1982, Clayton Beauford got some starts at QB. Later switched to pass catcher. Clayton was of the African American persuasion.

Grambling

Grambling also holds the record for the most black nose guards. And I didn't verify but Hawaii has prob got to have the record for most samoan left offensive tackles.

Stanford did have the Geico Caveman (H/T to Wench). That's got to count for something.

I wouldn't call CA-P one either, but he played the position.

And played it better. KF is JH on offense.

Only a couple of those went "under" center!

How do five different quarterbacks, regardless of their color, start one game?
