So now the OP knows for a fact who Butch is hiring. I didn't think you could out do yourself, but you might have accomplished your goal.

Of course i don't know but it's going to happen. If even ONE black recruit looks around the coaches table and sees ONE black coach and thinks (right or wrong) i'm not coming here because there's an equality problem that's not going to fly.
And lets face it, there's kids and their parents out there that would tell us no thank you because of it.

You said that it wasn't opinion, but it's a fact.

I'm stopping my posts now because I'm gonna wait on a worthy thread to hit 1,300 posts.

Well, Willy Martinez is Mexican, so that counts for 2 black guys if I'm calculating this right.

Just a comment, not caring personally who Butch hires as long as he's a quality coach and recruiter. That being said, I know your comment is just for fun but no one Mexican doesn't equal two black guys. Having lived in the Southwestern USA for decades, I can tell you that Mexicans' hostility towards African-Americans in some ways is worse that the worst hillbilly or southern bigot.

I view the situation as a lot like the Irish & Scottish ghettos in the USA on the early industrial period. Two oppressed angry groups with limited socio-economic opportunity hating on each other. Or in other words, the usual human stupidity.
