News flash. Not everyone had this racist bitch as their mom:
Also, I've listed my edits to your post below:
"intelligents" and "imcredible". I'm not going to include your poor punctuation, improper use of tenses or other grammatical errors out of respect.

Guess Winston is not going to be a lawyer or middle manager of a tech company. Total fail.
Funny, during his interview, I turned to my wife and said this kid is imcredible and I was referring to his ability to articulate the crazy emotions of accomplishing the dreams or fantasy of every sport fan.

Agree about the infamous "tiger mom."
However, it's not racist to point out that many players in college, especially at low level schools like in the SEC or Florida State, Miami, etc., have a shockingly low educational level. I can't imagine how low Jameis' SAT scores were. What leads to racist characterizations, though, is that athletes from impoverished, African American communities in the South are more likely to singled out for ridicule than an uneducated white kid because of the strong regional/cultural "dialect" (hello ebonics), even though both kids are probably just as uneducated.
In any case, many of these kids clearly have no business in college.

I get that I'm being a bit of a d*ck, but I gotta point out that...it's NOT EBONICS. do yourself and everyone else a favor and remove "ebonics" from your vocabulary. it is a racist term. that doesn't mean you are racist for using it, just misguided. I sincerely doubt you are aware of what the true name of their language is otherwise you would have refrained from calling it something so derogatory.
But I digress, what these students speak very well is African American Vernacular English (AAVE) which is not to be confused with Standard American English. Speak to linguists and they will tell you that it is an official language, and should not be confused with English. They aren't speaking English, yet they are intelligence is measured according to their performance on the SAT. It's honestly quite ridiculous that they are not taught English as a foreign language, and that they are denied instruction in their own language.
Quote:
Ebonics (a blend of the words ebony and phonics) is a term that was originally intended to refer to the language of all people descended from enslaved Black Africans, particularly in West Africa, the Caribbean, and North America. Since the 1996 controversy over its use by the Oakland School Board, the term Ebonics has primarily been used to refer to African American Vernacular English (AAVE), a dialect distinctively different from Standard American English.
The word Ebonics was originally coined in 1973 by African American social psychologist Robert Williams[1] in a discussion with linguist Ernie Smith (as well as other language scholars and researchers) that took place in a conference on "Cognitive and Language Development of the Black Child", held in St. Louis, Missouri.[2][3] His intention was to give a name to the language of African Americans that acknowledged the linguistic consequence of the slave trade and avoided the negative connotations of other terms like "Nonstandard Negro English":[4]
We need to define what we speak. We need to give a clear definition to our language...We know that ebony means black and that phonics refers to speech sounds or the science of sounds. Thus, we are really talking about the science of black speech sounds or language.[5]

As an aside, it's absurd that the intelligence of these individuals is being determined based on their performance on a racist & classist test (SAT). I am sure you can find academic papers, many have been written, on the biases of standardized testing, particularly the SAT. The test privileges upper middle class white America, by this I mean the language portion of the exam. The performance on the math portion does speak to the substandard education of the school systems in the South, as well as to that instruction is being given in the wrong language. Imagine being taught math, science, and all your other classes in a language not your own.

Finally, African American Vernacular English is a dialect, not language. .
