In terms of coaching diversity, here’s where we stand: There are roughly 35 bids expected to be doled out to the Power Six conferences Sunday, and at present only one of the Power Six teams assured of getting in is coached by an African-American. Florida State, led by Leonard Hamilton, is it.
“I’m shocked at that stat,” said Virginia Tech athletic director Whit Babcock.
If Hamilton is the lone diversity rep from the power elite, the NCAA tourney might as well be lacrosse.

:lol at Avery Johnson making excuses for being the next coaching iteration of Isiah Thomas.


“Some of us just need a little bit more time. This is my fourth year coaching college basketball. I haven’t been coaching 24 years at this level.”

Black coaches tend to be players coaches. And in College sports you need a firm hand because there are so many distractions at this level and ultimately many of them are still teenagers. There are even limitations on how much time players can spend practicing with the team. The Pros are easy - you can eat, drink, and sleep basketball.
