This can't be true. Everyone knows that it's the conservatives who are racist.
Look, here's what you don't understand about all this:
HARVAAAAD is a citidel of the RULING ELITES! They tell the REST OF US WHAT TO DO AND HOW TO LIVE. That DOES NOT mean THEY must do the same.
Jeezzz...
I guess we need a Title X now.
The horror...the horror.
Everybody chant zombie style: "must...look...like...America..."
How many white head coaches does Grambling have?
Yet they probably support affirmative action (quotas) for students and everyone else. The usual liberal do I say, not as I do mentality.
Ivy colleges are not competitive in athletics. Their recruiting (or non-recruiting) rules are so stringent that they can't go after the big high school players. Only if you happen to have an athlete with good grades who wants to come to an Ivy (and can get in) do they get one.
Why would a black coach, who is in high demand and can write his own ticket to coach at a large competitive school in one of the big conferences, want to coach at a school where he can't recruit, will have lousy players (except possibly in prep school sports like lacrosse), and will never be heard from in the national press? The Crimson boys can cajole and beg all they want, will make no difference.
. . . now admittedly I'm working from 30 year old information, since that's when I graduated from an Ivy (not Harvard). But that was the situation then, and I don't think it's changed. My roomies and I tried out for the 150-pound football squad, we placed 1-2-3-4 in the 100 yard dash, but they still wouldn't take us (we could have done them some good, two of my roomies were field hockey players of renown, and the material they had to work with was pretty poor, after the 'real' football team took anybody who could actually play.)
Calling Jesse Jackson, pickup the red phone!
Maybe there were no qualified candidates for the job. I doubt it with those numbers, but we should hire based on qualifications, not skin color.
I would suspect an intelligent, clean, and articulate black coach would want to avoid moving to Massachusetts and paying their onerous income taxes....
Stunning. Liberal hypocrisy.
I bet they don't have any transgenders either.
Harvard should confess its sins with much weeping and wailing.
Where's Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton?
