re: Has an African American head football coach ever won a national championship?

People don't want to call it what it is and say "resume" or "talent" should be the hiring factor, and they should... the problem is that a black coach could have the same resume and still be passed over because of racial bias.

Or it could just be that the elite head coaches in college football happen to be white. The law of large numbers does lead to that fact after all. Black people are between 12-13% of the population. The percentage of coaches is 10.77%. It’s not terribly far off from the pure overall demographic. And also, just because you can play football does not mean that you’re fit to be a head coach. That’s an important reminder when the argument of the percentage of players’ race is brought up.
