A Racist Take On Our New Coach

Don't think anyone said it was bad. I'd agree it could be a big plus but I think it's irrelevant if the coach is not delivering results. Players like to win above all else is my take, not relate else few would play for Saban and Trooper Taylor would be HC somewhere.

I'm glad to have a black head coach. I think it will pay dividends in the south. With his upbringing and life experience I believe he may win some key recruiting battles. I know race shouldn't matter, but it does. I think when in the living room of a top prospect, possibly talking to a single mother, his story and experience will be more convincing than the $10k Cheatapari is offering.
At the end of the day, I think Bruce was well liked by his players, but I don't think that they had the respect for him that they should for a head coach. Counzo will be both I think.
GBO!

so black is automatically associated with a single mother? racist.

can you give an example of a coach who has used his blackness to his benefit?

You are in LA. I'm talking about Memphis politics and predjudices and the perception by some Memphis coaches of The Hill. I'm not talking about history. I don't give stats. I don't have a freaking link. I'm not talking about freaking Nick Saban. What a terrible comparison. You aren't going to be able to understand if that's your comparison.

Kentucky Basketball is always on the minds of Tennessee fans. The new coach couldn't get through his press conference without fielding Kentucky questions. The Wildcats are the elite program and the measuring stick for other programs to compare.

This is true. And it will always be true because KY fans demand that their program compete for championships, while UT fans are satisfied with mediocre results. If Martin turns to be a good coach and goes to a couple of final fours his next stop will be Purdue.

You are so clueless that it's sad. If you think so poorly of UT, then go join that nimrod in rooting for UK.

so what you are saying is you dont' have a single piece of evidence to back up your assertion. surely if this was a factor you could come up with one example of superior recruiting by black coaches. calipari seemed to do A OK with recruiting in memphis. is that a terrible comparison?

This is contradictory.

Either

1) Tennessee could have attracted, hired, and retained a big name who could compete for championships

or

2) Tennessee settled on a guy because Tennessee is not committed to competing for championships.

There is no option where Tennessee settles on a guy because they are not committed and thus incapable of competing for championships, yet the guy they "settled" on gets multiple final fours and then leaves. Either Tennessee can compete and settled, or it can't and didn't and our new hire will wallow in our mediocrity. Or Tennessee took a calculated risk with an under-the-radar guy. Either way, we don't need to be paranoid about a coach jilting us after winning big. You're thinking like an abused girlfriend.

+1 Seemed like basic common sense. Also the caliber of jobs that are genuinely offered to minority candidates.

And the majority of players are black. This proves beyond any reasonable doubt that almost all of the school administrators and ads are racist, thugs with sheets and little pointed white hoods in their closets. The Reason that UT hired a black coach is to throw the NAACP off the scent.:shaking2::shaking2::shaking2::shaking2:

Sorry, droski. You are unable to understand. You're just another cracker.

Wade Houston had two blue chippers signed and the administration refused to let them in the school saying that eithere their grades or thier SAT's were not high enough and that they brought no special value to the school which would justify lowering the standards.

Nice example with Cheatapari. Race doesn't matter when recruits are looking to get paid.

Kentucky basketball sells itself. I would be floored if that idiot was paying players OR cheating there.

i don't care if our coach's skin color is green. i just want to win games. that is the case in every sport, not just basketball.

Like I said previously, you are incapable of understanding the entire issue. I'm not talking about Cal. I'm not talking about other coaches. I'm talking about UT now having an African American coach and UT will be looked at now, rather than being immediately scratched off the list, by some players and coaches because of it. Problem is that Anderson just moved too and he's closer. You need to branch with your thoughts a little and quit searching for something that doesn't pertain to the point.

Sort of the reverse of saying Wisconsin, Duke, Kansas, UNC, etc. must be racists coaches because they have more white players ?
