Does West Virginia University Have A Problem With Black Athletes?

http://www.jarrett-carter.com/2008/07/does-west-virginia-university-have-a-problem-with-black-athletes/

If White believes that blacks are not welcome to be a part of the baseball team, then they probably are not welcome to be a part of the baseball team. He has much more to lose than to gain in this commentary, so whether its true or not, he must be commended for speaking his mind when so many other athletes don't.
