1134 1134  1. **General Observations:**
1135 - - Based on **47 athlete interviews**, cherry-picked from non-revenue Division I sports.
1136 - - The study claims **β€œsegregation”**, but presents no evidence of actual exclusion or policy bias β€” just demographic imbalance.
1135 + - Analyzed **47 college athlete narratives** to explore racial disparities in non-revenue sports.
1136 + - Found three interrelated themes: **racial segregation, racial innocence, and racial protection**.
1137 1137  
1138 1138  2. **Subgroup Analysis:**
1139 - - Attributes **White participation** in certain sports to "systemic racism", ignoring **self-selection, geography, and cultural affinity**.
1140 - - Claims White athletes are β€œprotected” from race discussions β€” but never engages with **Black overrepresentation in revenue sports**.
1139 + - **Predominantly white sports programs** reinforce racial hierarchies in college athletics.
1140 + - **Recruitment policies favor white athletes** from affluent, suburban backgrounds.
1141 1141  
1142 1142  3. **Other Significant Data Points:**
1143 - - White athletes are portrayed as **ignorant of their privilege**, a claim drawn entirely from CRT frameworks rather than behavior or outcome.
1144 - - **No empirical data** is offered on policy, scholarship distribution, or team selection criteria.
1143 + - White athletes are **socialized to remain unaware of racial privilege** in their athletic careers.
1144 + - Media and institutional narratives protect white athletes from discussions on race and systemic inequities.

1148 1148  1. **Primary Observations:**
1149 - - Frames **normal demographic patterns** (e.g., majority-White rosters in tennis or rowing) as "institutional whiteness".
1150 - - **Ignores the structural dominance** of Black athletes in high-profile revenue sports like football and basketball.
1149 + - Colleges **actively recruit white athletes** from majority-white communities.
1150 + - Institutional policies **uphold whiteness** by failing to challenge racial biases in recruitment and team culture.
1151 1151  
1152 1152  2. **Subgroup Trends:**
1153 - - White athletes are criticized for **lacking racial awareness**, reinforcing the moral framing of **Whiteness as inherently problematic**.
1154 - - **Cultural preference, individual merit, and athletic subculture** are all excluded from consideration.
1153 + - **White athletes show limited awareness** of their racial advantage in sports.
1154 + - **Black athletes are overrepresented** in revenue-generating sports but underrepresented in non-revenue teams.
1155 1155  
1156 1156  3. **Specific Case Analysis:**
1157 - - Argues that college sports **reinforce racial hierarchy** without ever showing how White athletes benefit more than Black athletes.
1158 - - Offers **no comparative analysis** of scholarships, graduation rates, or media portrayal by race.
1157 + - Examines **how sports serve as a mechanism for maintaining racial privilege** in higher education.
1158 + - Discusses the **role of athletics in reinforcing systemic segregation and exclusion**.

1162 1162  1. **Strengths of the Study:**
1163 - - Useful as a clear example of **how CRT ideologues weaponize demography** to frame White majority spaces as inherently suspect.
1164 - - Shows how **academic literature systematically avoids symmetrical analysis** when outcomes favor White participants.
1163 + - **Comprehensive qualitative analysis** of race in college sports.
1164 + - Examines **institutional conditions** that sustain racial disparities in athletics.
1165 1165  
1166 1166  2. **Limitations of the Study:**
1167 - - **Excludes revenue sports**, where Black athletes dominate by numbers, prestige, and compensation.
1168 - - **Fails to explain** how team composition emerges from voluntary participation, geography, or subcultural identity.
1169 - - Treats **racial imbalance as proof of racism**, bypassing merit, interest, or socioeconomic context.
1167 + - Focuses primarily on **Division I non-revenue sports**, limiting generalizability to other divisions.
1168 + - Lacks extensive **quantitative data on racial demographics** in college athletics.
1170 1170  
1171 1171  3. **Suggestions for Improvement:**
1172 - - Include **White athlete perspectives** without pre-framing them as racially naive or complicit.
1173 - - **Compare all sports**, including those where Black athletes thrive and lead.
1174 - - Remove CRT framing and **evaluate outcomes empirically**, not ideologically.
1171 + - Future research should **compare recruitment policies across different sports and divisions**.
1172 + - Investigate **how athletic scholarships contribute to racial inequities in higher education**.
