All but two have played at a college level. 70% of all nfl players are black and something like 50% of all college players are black. Two nfl general managers are black, and there are three black nfl head coaches. So the overwhelming majority of head coaches and general managers come from some some connection to the game and it's a game that is compromised by primarily black people. It's not like we're pulling and hiring from the general public here, it's an inclusive hiring pool, folks who have been around and played the game, and the majority of them are black..........except at the highest level. So it's ok for the majority of the players to be black, but it's not ok for the majority of the coaches to be white? Maybe we need to have a rooney rule for skill positions where a certain number need to be white. That sounds fair. Link to post Share on other sites

Ever think that maybe some people are better at certain things? Who are all of these aspiring black coaches that just aren't getting the opportunity? I would like to see a list of deserving black coaches that are just being held down by the man. Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't think I'd get a list....I figured I'd at least get one name tho but your argument is so shallow that you couldn't even muster that. Jdrizzle 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Really all of those guys plus Riddick and Hortiz would be good enough as long as we can get a coach with some sense or at least keep Morris hjerry 1 Link to post Share on other sites
