Here’s what you posted: “For a black man to succeed at Texas he would have to get the team in the national championship game every other year, minimum”

So, since that is an impossible standard for anyone I figured that the only reason he would be held to that standard is because he is black.

Reading reeeeeeaaall slow, that’s what I got out of it.

Your getting warm. Skin color doesn’t matter at UT when it comes to the head football coach because expectations are impossibly high (e.g. “every other year in the national championship game”).

So, it was baked into the cake that Charlie, one day, would get fired as he simply did not have the background to be thrown into this boiling pot known as Texas Football. Because he is black, racism accusations and innuendo would naturally follow.

All in All, Texas, my alma mater, really mis-handled the whole affair and deserves it’s share of criticism.

Fortuantely, the AD that hired him was fired too.
