How are they at a disadvantage? I'm serious.
Because I think a somewhat unknown (and to cut off SFP, I don't mean totally obscure) black assistant will not be viewed in the same way as a white guy in the same position who has worked for well know other white head coaches who are known by the GM or owner. I'm not saying it's overt racism. I'm saying it's an endemic, institutional matter of familiarity and comfort that perhaps just needs a little bit of shaking up.
