-"He's black."

The incident was not racial. A basketball coach (black) sent out a "goon" hit-man (black) with a resulting victim (black).

However, the 'racial' overtone, could be from the Temple President (white), the A-10 Commissioner (white) unwilling to act with the proper action against the perpetrator of this incident.

Linda Bruno - Atlantic 10 Commissioner

David Adamany - Temple University President

John Chaney - Temple Basketball Coach

John Bryant - St. Joseph's Basketball Player

My reason in stating "He's black" was racial...but not for the reason you gave.

I believe that there's a reluctance to fire high-profile blacks (such as Chaney) because of the resulting noise from the Jesse Jacksons and Al Sharptons who'll scream "racism" at the drop of a hat.

At the minimum, Chaney should have been roundly punished for his death threat against John Calipari.
