Black College Football Coaches 2 out of 113 !!??

[RobFunk]

notre dame is all done. who the hell wants to play there?

gee 4 horseman i dont know crap about in sorry small area

or: nice weather year round! nieve hot immagrant women! win all the time! virtually whole team drafted in first round of NFL! last call isnt until 5am! tons of beaches! hello Miami!!! I love it here!

peace ND

an 18 year old kid does the math

and i miss ND as a power but look at reality.

in the end end, ND gets looked at as a failed example of black coaching which keeps the very disparity JM mentions in place, but the white coach has got it going on.

it sucks, what can you do?!

black coaching will never be prominent until it has a black coach that stampedes the field like Miami, and no miami isnt going to a bowl but they won it in the last 4 years and theyre sending more players to the NFL and that is what matters to the kids.

its really quite simple.

J~Man, you know I'm always on your side buddy, but please tell me what the percentage of blacks vs. whites are in the NBA? Now, of course, it is going to be heavily in favor of African Americans, which we can only figure has something to do with African Americans being more talented percentage~wise, correct?. Well, I'll just leave it at that and hope that anyone that questions the % of whites vs. blacks in not only college coaches, but head coaches in general, can figure it out without just coming out and saying it. Just as the comparison up above in whites vs blacks in NBA, some are simply more talented, more suited, and more deserving for "other" jobs..........

Don't accuse me of being a racist, journeyman. How come you don't raise the issue of blacks in nascar or swimming or bowling? How about swim coaches? Why just NCAA football division 1 coaches?

 

[Journeyman]

Actually I wasn't accusing anyone of being a racist, I just thought it was a good topic....Alot of good points made, I honestly believe a black coach would have a harder time recruiting...

 

[HacheMan]

Redneckman, Journey wasn't accusing of anything, you just have to know what "tone of voice" he would be using if in person..........

[JohnnyDeMarco]

He got fired because of W-L record and because ND is under big pressure from NBC (TV) to put a winner on the field. That TV contrct feeds them millions.

 

[Redneckman]

You may have nailed it on right on the head, Johnny. I wonder when their contract with NBC runs out. If it's in the next few years, they need to get a new coach in there now who is a better recruiter.

I have never understood the big fascination with the Irish anyway...it seems everyone hates them...I would think ND's popularity has dropped off significantly in the last 10 years...I could be wrong...I wonder what the ratings are?

If they joined the BIG 10, they would an also-ran, just like Penn State has become.

Sorry, guess they allready are.

 

[Fishhead]

The appeal at ND 14+ years ago was they were a MAJOR TV school compared to other teams.

Now the BIG TEN and other conferences have almost all of their games regionally or nationally televised.

Who gives a s h i t if there are no black coaches? The guy that started this thread should move to another country if he is unhappy with the fact that black coaches are no big deal. Why do you think they got fired? Because they should have never been hired in the first place. Players think they can get away with more things (arriving late to practice, etc) bc the coach is black and in the end hurt their team with this attitude.

 

[BuckSwope]

Let's just get the best 113 coaches out there so I do not have to keep bitching about bad game calling

I don't care if they are black, female, gay, or a talking parrot.

J,
If a bunch of Klan loving imbred white-trash Americans can ruin the White House, then certainly their constituents can destroy equality in sports too.
