My point isn't that.....the NFL has a rule where there has to be a black candidate interviewed........I know these:mjpls: in the SEC won't let that fly.....Since I don't know, who was the last real black coaching candidate interviewed for a head coaching position in football for the SEC? Maybe Missouri will get it done after this year since they need a new coach next year.
There was no interview process. They wanted Kirby. Period. Didn't even contact Herman

I'm not going at Georgia breh....don't let the Auburn logo fool you.....I'm just thinking out loud about inequality in the coaching ranks and would like to see more black head coaches everywhere since over 50% of players on most teams are black. If Auburn gets rid of Malzahn anytime soon, I would hope they openly interview a black head or assistant coach from somewhere.

Agreed. It's really hard for black coaches to break through

Yea i don't want Dino to get "ruined" by getting a gig TOO big for him too soon. Get a place like UVA up and going consistently and THEN make the leap like 3-4 years from now. Heck he could make that program something and don't even have to leave

I think it's best to build your name at a smaller school 1st. Learn all the things needed to be a HC at the college level. It's not an easy transition. Not saying it can't be done but most coordinators that that go to big schools as their 1st gig flame out.
It's a ton of pressure running a historical powerhouse.

Thats why i brought up franklin. Head coaches are like CEO's these days so his mediocre coaching abilities wouldn't matter. He would be at a program where money is no object, and could hire the best assistants. And a breh head coaching in the state of Georgia would eat so lovely off of Georgia and the surrounding area's insane talent pool. So many great athletes from the state are stolen by Auburn, Tennessee, etc because of their recruiters..........

And please dont bring up Charlie Strongs lack of success (albeit in another conference). Dude has the personality of a can of paint. A energetic, charismatic breh head coaching in the SEC would EAT

I don't think a black coach would do any better based on his skin color.

A huge amount of the recruiters that truly do the dirty work are black at sec schools. That's why they get retained even when staffs change. The homie Thomas brown has that role at uga. He damn near has a job for life. Once he butters up the kids, and makes a connection the head coach or one of the two coordinators just puts the icing on. Saying we have a young black coach instead of some stale old white man in charge of your future, might appeal to some kids, u never know

That's why it wouldn't matter as much Most staffs have that. Coach McClendon is that guy in Athens.

He just reupped with Houston like two days ago.

Nobody wants to go to Soutgh Carolina like that, no offense.

Spurriers name in recruiting took them to where they went under him. And even then, that stopped working eventually.

New name Lincoln Riley...

Although I think it's Tom Herman.
