Angel often talks about people “looking like her.” Girls she inspires, this coach, etc. It’s standard language in this generation about representation and it does NOT mean that she doesn’t respect and connect with white people I understand why it can be irksome to hear, focusing on race, but it’s not being done in a negative or zero-sum way.

And if you choose to misunderstand this, please refrain from any hypocritical Cooper DeJean fandom, which —to white guys— should clue you into the concept. I, meanwhile, will support the Great White Hope on our behalf.

Cool. So let’s apply this to Garrett Nussmeier in regards to coach Kelly, shall we? How do you think goes over?

“My first conversation with him, I knew I wanted to be his quarterback. Just being able to have somebody that understands me as a White man, that looks like me. Who knows what I’ve been through, and understands me from that perspective.”
