re: Stephen M. Smith wants Saban to hire more black Coordinators......

quote:

He’s had several position coaches – including Burton Burns, Bo Davis, Mel Tucker, Derrick Ansley, Karl Scott, Karl Dunbar, Brian Baker, Charles Huff, Holman Wiggins, Jay Valai, and Robert Gillespie – but one primary coordinator.

Ron Middleton and Bobby Williams coordinated special teams under Saban at Alabama, but that position is not a top job on a national scale.

It's interesting to me that he lists 11 assistants and 2 coordinators (13 coaches) that are black, but literally qualifies his entire argument with the word "primary."

As if Nick Saban, of all people, would totally disregard an offensive or defensive coordinator's ability to win football games based solely on their physical appearance.

I mean, has he seen Pete Golding and Kirby Smart's hair? Germy Proot in general? Who the frick cares what these people look like?
