People talk about how race should not be a thing in coaching hires. But it is still the good ol' boy system. Coaches are more likely to hire people they like/get along with socially, not coaching wise. People hire their friends and do not search for the best candidates.
Look at UNC. They just released 5 black coaches from a sport that is predominately dominated by black athletes (4 paid and 1 volunteer). They kept their sprint coach. Which largely plays into most NCAA programs. White wash the entire program but keep the one designated sprint coach for 'diversity'.
Pretty sad post, blindly resorting to the race card because you didn't get your way. UNC just made a coaching change at the top. The new coach brought in most of their own staff, which is very typical of what coaches do. He knows he better win or he is out. And you went straight to the gutter and accuse him of being part of "the gold ol' boy system" and saying he is "white washing".
You decided to get your panties in a bunch because their weren't enough people of the right color on the newly hired staff. Instead of looking at these individuals as Mike, John, Joe, and Shawn, you see them as four white guys and a token black. I feel sorry for anyone that goes through life with a color centric view of every situation. Take your identity politics elsewhere. The UNC coaching staff have a conference championship they are trying to win.
A little vomit just seeped out of MLK's grave.!

Calm down, Cowboy! Relax! Some people are just caught up seeing everything through the lens of race, gender, and class. And they don't see people as individuals! And this is especially true of people who don't get their way.
Great news! We can not quit reading 25 posts a day about the Stanford job! Any other updates on all of the other coaching positions open?
Hope Clemson puts some money into recruiting distance athletes.

In other news that isn’t Stanford
As far as sprints jobs are concerned word on the streets of Drake has been that Texas A&M Arizona USF Memphis and Western Kentucky will all make their announcements after USAs.
Louisville Miami CSUN are starting their searches.
That’s all I got

2 observations about the UNC announcements. They could have taken the Stanford emblem off Riden in the photo, and the track in the background doesn’t really exist. How are they going to run home meets?
1 observation about the UNC announcement. Soreson looks like he came from Slitherin

It doesn't look promising if they're not going to hire a real coach

Why didn’t you write this long and passionate of a reaponce to the comments earlier about the majority of PAC 12 head coaches/directors being minorities?

Rinker was in over his head at Northeastern as a stop watch holder. He was doomed to fail miserably at LSU.
Grove McDonagh to UConn?
Is D3 update?
It's a commonly used method of getting a higher salary for a coach.

This list is so reasonable, it has to be wrong. Come back and post when you have 2 absurd candidates, plus BAS and Lannana.
And you can come back when the head coach is announced and apologize for your ignorance
Good news mate, we don't owe you an apology.
