Not really...since Beckwith is singular and not every recruit. The fact that exceptions EXIST prove their existence.

Yes, the first black player in UT history

Yeah, he was drafted outta hs but mama wouldn’t sign the contract so he came to TN

BUT he was not the first black player at UT.... Lester McClain beat him by about 4 years or so I believe....

No, running back Lester McClain was the first black player at UT in the late 60’s. Condredge was the first black QB in the SEC.

My post was an answer to the question "did he play baseball at UT". Thought my answer was clear, but guess not.

His mom worked with my mom for Von Braun here in Huntsville.

You are nonsense.

 

[SweetasSoda]

You are nonsense.

Made perfect sense to me.

You are nonsense.

You’re incoherent and a danger to yourself as well as others.
