But how many white coaches jump right in without climbing the ladder?

"ESPN isn't an independant journalism outfit - it's in business with college football."



CFB has become manufactured.

Henry for Heisman say the talking heads, everything Bama. Eyeball test.

Why don't blacks get to be GA's?

You think they get denied, or they just don't want to work for nothing? Because most coaches on career tracks put in time at tiny schools that pay little if at all, before getting a GA position (or two) before finally moving to a position coach.

I am outraged by this. Vanderbilt should have an asian head football coach.

You need a college degree to become a graduate assistant. A majority of black football players don't graduate. Those that get a degree might chose to work in the field that got a degree in.

look at the NBA...something like 75% of the players are black,

Sounds like racism. There should be a larger percentage of white people in the NBA.

We had a black coach. He couldn't recruit or coach so we fired him.


And inherited a team with I believe 4 consecutive bowl appearances AND Randall Cobb on the roster.
