What barrier?

"...only 9 of the 70 Power Four programs had Black head coaches. That’s just 12.9 percent..."

Isn't this figure pretty much equal to the percentage of Americans who are black? Yet more proof that 'equality' and 'equal representation' is not the goal of these race baiting socialist assclowns. Shut the hell up and play the game, coach the game...may the best players and coaches win.

I love to look at beautiful cities and historical structures for a real sense of pride. For some reason what has been accomplished is not important.

Why not show, by race, accomplishments worldwide and see how that plays out. That should not be too much to ask. Each race has strengths and weaknesses which should be acknowledged and accepted.

Only then can we move on.

When will the barrier against allowing white players in the NFL be broken? Last percentage I read, the NFL players were 80% black.

Seems to me that blacks are free to apply for head coaching positions. IF someone was denied an application for the job and denied because he was black, that is racism. I doubt that's the case for most colleges/universities. Again, our society provides equal opportunity (e.g., free to apply), not equal outcomes (e.g., land the job). It's up to the individual to supply the attributes that make a college/university want to hire you as a coach.

Re: "Just 12.9% Black Head Coaches in Top 70 college teams"

2024 Census Bureau Estimate:

Total Black Americans - 13.7%

Yep. And those racial numbers never go the other way. There is a significant lack of whitey on the teams these days.
