Yes, personal attack. The other hallmark of the “tolerant” progressive. Where are you from: Palo Alto, Sunnyvale? What enlightened enclave do you claim as your home? Who got the distance job at WU?

Bradley U has a coaching position open, who left? and where did they go?
Drew Peterson is following his wife/fiancé Emma Reed to UC Davis in a 2-for-1 deal. She is the new Aggie xc coach and he will be Asst to the Regional Manager.
Davis did not have two open staff for positions, so it will be interesting to see how this is structured.
Asst to the regional manager of what?
I heard he was going to open a bed and breakfast in the family farm with his brother

Administration isn’t gonna conduct interviews/hires during a holiday week. Be patient things usually get rolling after this week until August.
So current Jumps and Throws athletes are just SOL? Doesn't seem to smart when the Vault program is one of the best in the Nation......

If backs make up 13% should they make up more than 13% of the hires?
Yes.
Blacks are 50% of the sport in America in major DI and at the highest levels of the sport for several generations. At the NCAA Championships and USATF Nationals it's mostly black. At the USATF and AAU Jr. Olympic nationals it's about 80% black. The coaches should reflect that.

Very disappointing if true. That staff has underperformed. Program deserved a clean slate.

OR maybe the fact that theres so many white coaches involved in track producing 50-80 pct black athletes at ncaa and usatf shows that white coaches are working well with black athletes. Why change that and risk that the numbers change? Seems like you want to take a chance that black athlete's numbers drop. Thats not nice...
It is true.

Would be interesting to see the stats on non-distance coaching positions. Unless we want to pretend that distance athletes are not mostly white kids with the occasional east-african sprinkled in there (who generally aren't going to stick around to coach). I would assume the numbers are somewhat skewed by the abundance of distance positions/distance-only schools?

A friend of mine who told me once that he didn't get a coaching job, because he was a non-white distance coach and that the team and recruits may not relate to him well. that's some bull and then they go a hire some no achievement white guy.
Job hiring discrimination happens all ways whether ethnicity or gender based. It shouldn't matter your color or gender to be able to relate to athletes.
Back to hirings.

Right? I have been saying for years we need more white coaches at hbc teams. I'm tired of seeing under qualified people get these jobs. Doesn't matter cuz a white coach can relate to black kids same as a black coach can relate to white kids. Glad we agree.
