Seems like Beijing University got all they could handle from the Aggies. Number 1 in Pablo no more! Great, now a racist putz. I don't think so. He was referring to Missouri. Also, he made no judgment about whether Chinese people/athletes were good or bad. In fact, it may be a compliment that Missouri is doing so well with Chinese athletes. (Does Missouri have Chinese athletes?) And I'm pretty sure BIK, being a product of the Hawaii melting pot, has some Chinese blood in him. But don't know for sure. His real last name is Chan, if that's any help.

You're right, just because someone decides to make idiotic labels simply because a school has 2 international players on their roster from the same country doesn't mean they're racist. Maybe just pathetic. (pathetic putz has a better ring to it anyway).

I think Mizzou has three Chinese players now: Na Yang, Shen Danru, and a freshman who hasn't cracked the rotation. They are good players. I don't think Missouri is enough of a volleyball hotbed to guarantee enough talent to win in the Big 12, so you go where you need to in order to get talent.
