There were several factors that contributed to SMU pushing for desegregation when it did. When SMU started the process of desegregation in the fall of 1950, two schools in the Southwest Conference had already admitted at least one black graduate student. University officials, namely then President Umphrey Lee, realized that because other schools had desegregated, it would not be long before SMU would have to do the same.

  • Race and College Football in the Southwest, 1947-1976
    UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA GRADUATE COLLEGE DESEGREGATING THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE: RACE AND COLLEGE FOOTBALL IN THE SOUTHWEST, 1947-1976 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE FACULTY in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By CHRISTOPHER R. DAVIS Norman, Oklahoma 2014 DESEGREGATING THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE: RACE AND COLLEGE FOOTBALL IN THE SOUTHWEST, 1947-1976 A DISSERTATION APPROVED FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY BY ____________________________ Dr. Stephen H. Norwood, Chair ____________________________ Dr. Robert L. Griswold ____________________________ Dr. Ben Keppel ____________________________ Dr. Paul A. Gilje ____________________________ Dr. Ralph R. Hamerla © Copyright by CHRISTOPHER R. DAVIS 2014 All Rights Reserved. Acknowledgements In many ways, this dissertation represents the culmination of a lifelong passion for both sports and history. One of my most vivid early childhood memories comes from the fall of 1972 when, as a five year-old, I was reading the sports section of one of the Dallas newspapers at my grandparents’ breakfast table. I am not sure how much I comprehended, but one fact leaped clearly from the page—Nebraska had defeated Army by the seemingly incredible score of 77-7. Wild thoughts raced through my young mind. How could one team score so many points? How could they so thoroughly dominate an opponent? Just how bad was this Army outfit? How many touchdowns did it take to score seventy-seven points? I did not realize it at the time, but that was the day when I first understood concretely the concepts of multiplication and division. Nebraska scored eleven touchdowns I calculated (probably with some help from my grandfather) and my love of football and the sports page only grew from there.

  • Redskins Live on the Edge, Then Fall Off ST
    NATIONALS THINKING BIGGER THAN ONCE THOUGHT POSSIBLE, C1 EXPANDED COVERAGE, R4: Replacement offi cials lose control Secondary exposed by Rams’ Amendola; Carriker, Orakpo add to injury woes 31 28 G AMEDAY MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 2012 ☆☆ washingtontimes.com/sports/football DOWN TO EARTH Big lead, Week 1 momentum go out window with loss BY RICH CAMPBELL THE WASHINGTON TIMES ST. LOUIS |The men who play professional foot- ball will tell you it is the most emotional of sports. That’s a byproduct of its physical nature and the machismo that inevitably accompanies that. This is the NFL, where the players are the biggest and fastest in the world. Fame and fortune only raise the stakes. Players also will tell you the retaliator usually is the one penalized. When emotions boil over on the fi eld, victory can be determined by poise and composure. When your opponent illegally hits you, how do you respond? That was on Joshua Morgan’s mind as he sat at his locker Sunday evening, towel wrapped around his waist, staring at his cellphone. For all the skir- mishes that occurred during and after plays in the Washington Redskins’ 31-28 loss to the St. Louis Rams, and for all the good and bad plays the Red- skins made while staying within reach of victory, one truth mattered more than any other. Morgan was the retaliator. And, of course, he was caught. The Redskins wide receiver was penalized 15 yards for throwing the ball at Rams cornerback Cortland Finnegan with 1:18 remaining in a 3-point game.

Green at Cardinals practice today looked like the 2015 version,” Riddick tweeted. “He was on fire. Arizona has the potential to have top-five wide receiver group with DHop, AJ, Rondale Moore, and Christian Kirk.” The Cardinals have lots of depth now at QB: Kyler Murray saw his first snaps this preseason, but the wide receiver position with the additions for Green it was evident Kliff Kingsbury sees little value in giving and Moore this offseason. his superstar quarterback an extended preseason look. He played nine snaps against the Chiefs before giving TE: The tight end position remains one of the big way to Colt McCoy and Chris Streveler. Those nine question marks. Maxx Williams sits at the top of the snaps were discouraging, as Murray took two sacks and depth chart, but it is muddied with Darrell Daniels, only completed one pass.

  • NFL GAMEDAY Week 11
    NFL GAMEDAY Week 11 INDIANAPOLIS COLTS @ NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS BILL BELICHICK WILL DEFINITELY END UP IN THE HALL OF FAME SOMEDAY, BUT THE COLTS HARDLY SEEMED INTIMIDATED. EARLY ON WHEN VINCE WILFORK LINED UP ON THE PATRIOTS LEFT, THE COLTS RAN AWAY FROM HIM, AND SEEMED TO RUN AT WILL. WHEN BILL BELICHICK MOVED WILFORK TO THE RIGHT, THE MOMENTUM OF THE GAME CHANGED. THE PATRIOTS PULLED AWAY BEHIND TOM BRADY‟S 331 YARDS AND 3 TOUCHDOWNS. ROB GRONKOWSKI CAUGHT TWO TD PASSES, BUT BROKE HIS FOREARM AND IS EXPECTED TO MISS 4-6 WEEKS. ARIZONA CARDINALS @ ATLANTA FALCONS GETTING HIT BELOW THE BELT CAN BRING A MAN TO HIS KNEES. SO CAN A PUNCH TO THE MOUTH. GOOD THING MATT RYAN HAS AN IRON JAW. THE ONLY THING RYAN SUFFERED FROM WAS A BRUISED EGO AFTER GETTING PICKED-OFF A CAREER HIGH FIVE TIMES. RYAN WIRE – “IT‟S EITHER FEAST OR FAMINE AGAINST THIS DEFENSE, WE JUST GOTTA KEEP GOING.” FORTUNATELY FOR RYAN, ATLANTA‟S DEFENSE DEVOURED QUARTERBACK RYAN LINDLEY TO KEEP THE GAME CLOSE. RYAN REDEEMED HIMSELF BY LEADING ATLANTA TO A GAME-WINNING TOUCHDOWN IN THE FOURTH QUARTER. Page 1 of 5 TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS @ CAROLINA PANTHERS IF LUCK IS A LADY, SHE‟S BEEN PLAYING HARD TO GET WITH THE PANTHERS. BUT LADY LUCK ALSO GAVE THE BUCCANEERS THE COLD SHOULDER AS THEY COMMITTED TWO COSTLY TURNOVERS. THIS PAVED THE WAY TO A 21-10 LEAD IN THE FOURTH QUARTER. DOWN 11 WITH 4 MINUTES REMAINING, JOSH FREEMAN ENGINEERED TWO SCORING DRIVES, TYING THE GAME WITH 12 SECONDS REMAINING.
