... since the 1978-1979 season (AP All-Americans). This covers a 40-year span. I'm not including mixed players like Justin Jackson, Brook Lopez, Shane Battier, etc... North Carolina, Indiana, and Utah are states that have 2 schools with 4+ white All-Americans. Useless stat, I know. But kinda, sorta, slightly interesting. Gonzaga has 6 of them this century, which is on par with Duke for the same timeframe:

Duke: 10 (Luke Kennard, Grayson Allen, Mason Plumlee, Jon Scheyer, JJ Redick, Mike Dunleavy, Bobby Hurley, Christian Laettner, Danny Ferry, Mike Gminski)
Gonzaga: 6 (Kevin Pangos, Kyle Wiltjer, Kelly Olynyk, Adam Morrison, Blake Stepp, Dan Dickau)
Indiana: 5 (Cody Zeller, Kirk Haston, Brian Evans, Damon Bailey, Steve Alford)
Kansas: 5 (Jeff Withey, Cole Aldrich, Nick Collison, Kirk Hinrich, Raef LaFrentz)
Notre Dame: 5 (Ben Hansbrough, Luke Harangody, Troy Murphy, Pat Garrity, Kelly Tripucka)
UNC: 4 (Luke Maye, Tyler Zeller, Tyler Hansbrough, Montross)
Stanford: 4 (Casey Jacobsen, Mark Madsen, Adam Keefe, Todd Lichti)
Utah: 4 (Jakob Poetl, Andre Bogut, Keith Van Horn, Danny Vranes)
BYU: 4 (Jimmer Fredette, Michael Smith, Devin Durrant, Danny Ainge)

We should make this the "is it racist" thread.

Yes. And I'm reminded of Daniel Tosh's suggestion for improving college basketball. What do you guys think?

I love basketball and I love college basketball and I’m happy that the NBA finally made a rule change. Forcing high school athletes to play at least one year of college ball. It’s a great rule change for college basketball. I came up with one more. Just for college. Why not let white players get one more point? Right? Who cares? Not gonna affect the games at all. Gonna make them feel like they’re contributing. A valuable lesson to learn in college and to remind the black athletes that no matter how hard they try in this country, they’ll always make less than their white counterpart.
 
We think this is what did it over on the college football board.
I seriously feel bad for Iowa fans. I get it every fan base has bad fans, there is no real difference between one fan base or another. Everyone has good fans, bad fans, idiot fans, and Gilligan fans. Just he sticks out so much on this board, and he spews racist crap with Iowa stuff at the same time and never misses a beat. Right or wrong, he just tarnishes any good Iowa posters on this board by association.

What was Grayson Allen an All American for? Are leg whips and tripping recorded statistics?
