Who would hold him back because of "who he is"? And why would they do that? 

One of the better catches you will see to save Clemson’s season         

I would say they’re democrat implants but no one is throwing Molotov cocktails.

I know them and consider them friends. They are just middle class people who have high standards and morals. Great family who works hard. They do not use politics to advance themselves in any way. Luke would have started last year but was held back probably because of who he is. 

I don't know a whole lot about his family other than they're wealthy people who have had a hand in politics. I don't know them well enough personally to make statements concerning their character. But Luke's a good kid and a good athlete so judging by that I'd say they're good people.
