4. White GA football fans would probably support Walker because he's a Trumper.

Here’s a story about white Georgia racists: I know someone who was on the National championship Georgia football team with Herschel Walker. Years later, this black man, who had helped Georgia win the national championship, was refereeing a high school basketball game in Forsyth County Georgia.

Forsyth County used to be called a sunset county because all Black people had to be out of the county by sunset. There are still very few minorities in Forsyth County. When the person that I know entered the basketball gymnasium for the game, the white crowd taunted him by yelling the N-word at him. He told the referees association that he would never referee in Forsyth County again. This person is a businessman with a multi-national corporation. He was a high school sports referee in his spare time on nights and weekends.

These white racist cheer on black football players on Saturday football game days and call them the N-word all of the other time. They view black college football players as their sports slaves.
