On top of what has already been said, I think the whole woke PC thing has a little to do with it as well.

No AD wants to deal with that shite.

Jesse Jackson was organizing protests because the packers fired Ray Rhodes. The total outrage that Ty Willingham didn't get a lifetime deal at ND bc he was black and Michael Wilbon said so, etc.

Remember how Alabama was racist for not hiring Sly Croom?

Those cries ended quickly after someone finally made the mistake of making him a head coach.
