Roddy White, a former Atlanta Falcons star, took an unnecessary shot at the Clemson Tigers on Saturday afternoon.
No. 13 Clemson was hoping to start the season with an upset over No. 1 Georgia, but the team could only manage to score three points as they got blown out behind Bulldogs quarterback Carson Beck throwing two touchdowns in the second half while Nate Frazier and Cash Jones ran for one touchdown each.
Georgia won the game 34-3.
On X, formerly Twitter, Roddy White had a disturbing comment about the number of white players on the team that seemed to hint at a recruiting problem.
“Clemson got way to (sic) many White dudes on the field on offense this ain’t them. U mean to tell me u only got one Black dude out there making plays that’s a recruiting problem,” White wrote on X this past weekend.
Head coach Dabo Swinney has built the Tigers into a national powerhouse and won two national championships with Deshaun Watson and Trevor Lawrence as his quarterbacks.
He has had players like Watson, Dwayne Allen, Vic Beasley, Da’Quan Bowers, Travis Etienne, Clelin Ferrell, Mitch Hyatt, Shaq Lawson, Isaiah Simmons, John Simpson, C.J. Spiller and Christian Wilkins on the team.
“I am getting a lot of blow back for the to many white players comment I apologize if someone thought I was being racist which everybody around me knows I’m not. I looked out there and 10 of the 11 players were white I can’t recall ever seeing a Clemson team like that,” White wrote.
Roddy White Did Not Attend Big Time School Before NFL Career
Roddy White, an Atlanta Falcons Ring of Honor inductee, is going viral for all the wrong reasons after he mentioned the Clemson Tigers’ having too many white guys on the team during their loss to Georgia.
It may seem like an upset alum, but White actually attended the University of Alabama at Birmingham and played football for three seasons, from 201 to 2004.
Roddy White was a star at UAB as he caught 163 passes for 3,112 yards and 26 touchdowns in four seasons before he moved on to be the 27th overall pick in the 2006 draft by the Falcons.
