I’m confused. I thought we weren’t supposed to consider race when hiring people.

It was one thing for Illinois to whiff on Shaka Smart, the very successful coach at Virginia Commonwealth, which is what new athletic director Mike Thomas did. Smart, who is African American, had his reasons for turning down the big money Thomas threw at him. So you move on, and Illinois’ athletic director did, however haltingly. You hire the best coach available. Shaka Smart turned down the offer. He is black.

Sports teams often boast more black people than the proportion in the general populace, and does anybody complain this is unfair?
Whoever does the best job of coaching will serve both the white and black (and red and yellow) people on the sports team best. It should not matter whether that person is a green Martian.
