The more I think about it and especially what he posts in various threads he does not know it but he exemplifies what a troll is.

UT is only 30% white now . They are now a Hispanic designated school like us.
There isnât a huge difference Between their demographics and ours.
They simply have tons of t shirt fans bc they are the flagship of the state. Best guess as to why.
Next time you see someone in a UT shirt, ask if they went there or what yr they graduated. Youâll see. We could capture this city more with t shirt fans with more success in football. I have already run across some UH t shirt fans of our bb program.

Hispanics are Caucasians. Hint: Ancestors were from Spain.
âWhiteâ must mean British Isles and Northern Europe?
I agree with you , Hispanics are Caucasian as a race. The government, I guess , goes with ethnicity/ culture. My guess is there are only a few races which are Caucasian which should be European and Hispanics, Asian , African, American Indian , Pacific Islander but they have a category of just white which is wrong bc it should fall under Caucasian. The government has 7 categories which is wrong.
5 races: Caucasian, Negro, Asian, Pacific Islander, Native Americans(North and South America).
Did that from memory. Might check it.
Not necessarily.
I suspect Yordan Alvarez and Framber Valdez would take exception to that.
Hispanic AINâT a race.
Itâs an ethno-linguistic category.
Hispanics may be members of any race. Just ask former Peruvian President Alberto Fujimoro (Asian Hispanic of Japanese descent).
Or former Cuban dictator Fulgencio Batista (he was of mixed White, Black, Chinese, and Native American descent).
That said, yes, MOST of the University of Houston hispanics would probably identify as White/Caucasian on their census forms.
But not all would.

There is a term called Mulatto.
Believe it means Mixed Race.
Doesnât change the number of Races. Just means you can be most of them.
There is.
But Manny Ramirez, Yordan Alvarez, Framber Valdez, Aroldis Chapman, and many other BLACK Hispanics would probably not identify as mulattos, nor as White.
wow
Wow!

Kwuh97âŠyou meanâŠwhat?
A&M is 58% 25% Hispanic and a small breakdown of others. It matters when trying to fill a stadium.

First and foremost it is about knowing and relating to your customers. We clearly are not doing enough.
Hispanics are going to our games so that isnât the issue with attendance. I see all ethnicities attending our games. I think it has more to do with us not being a flagship school like UT or A$M . Again we can capture the city if weâre good. Bb has captured the alumni and city and football isnât far behind but we need to price those upper decks with family packs etc bc they simply havenât sold much in upper decks. Weâre more like Miami/ gotta be good to get fans in the stands. Willie is building confidence as a winning team generally like UT and A&M are which is important. Fans need to know or think you will generally win. Like Chris on this board mentioned, we had too many coaching changes where other teams plucked our best coaches , probation and conference demotion which all hurt our attendance. I truly think we are back and stable with Willie and being in a p4. So attendance will go up from now but Iâd pause on raising ticket prices or reduce them to get a full stadium short term.
Our best days for attendance in fb are ahead of us bc we now have all the fundamentals with being p4 again and no UT to mess with us.

If you want t shirt fans you need to do something great or keep games interesting or dominate. Also, people want to follow teams that consistently compete for the gold and if you constantly have bias and things going against you. Its better to support the team who portrays spending money and that can compete with all the other states. Theres nothing we can do to improve that anymore. You just have to win against the big teams. We have the coach, the players, and the facilities. Just win.

Those talking Hispanic are Caucasian I can speak to this since some of my ancestors came out of Mexico , Better go do your homework go down in the barrio talking that Hispanic or Latino oh you white as if some honorary label especially the young ones you might find yourself in a fight or get your feeling hurt. Now there some in the so-call Hispanic community who will accept the title of white , no doubt but donât let them fool you into thinking all think that wayâŠA lot self describ as Chicano, Laraza or some other descriptive Mexican American etc. . So call Hispanic/Latino a US. Census description it came up with , not one of Mestizo Mexican or Indigenous, Central or South American ancestry had any input in, none whatsoever.
23.2 million people (about 19% of Mexicoâs total population) identify as Indigenous the are Mestizo , indigenous, African, European ancestry as my ancestry i s. Just in case you donât know what Indigenous means they are aka in the American mentality, Indian ancestry same descendants who ancestors crossed the Bering sea land bridge by some archaeologist estimates about 25k yrs ago. Self-Identification:, 23.2 million people** (about 19% of Mexicoâs total population) identify as Indigenous.
