All white coaching staff

Am I the only one seeing the trend? So far, it’s all white guys. If this is the coaching staff he is assembling, how is he going to convince black parents to send him their kids? IMO this doesn’t appear to be an inclusive coaching staff especially since he is planning on leading a team full of black players.

This seems like a fair question considering we have a coaching staff with no history of recruiting prowess. A team that has a recent history of being a cellar dweller that hasn't been to a bowl game in 4 years. While the diversity and makeup of our coaches might not be the primary reason a recruit doesn't come here it could factor in with all of the other issues we have.

Has he never recruited a "black" player before?

Ironic the people who want race to not be important factors, seem to make everything about race.... You're inventing problems that aren't there and diversity is inherently racist to begin with. You're complaining too many white coaches, but what if it was all black? Would you complain still? If not, it's not about diversity and more about you just being anti-white. Humans in general aren't keen to diversity. Ethnic and racial groups tend to cluster naturally with similar individuals. No matter how hard you force it, it ain't gonna work out how you want it to. Focus your energy into something more productive and you won't be so angry at the world. 

And here's that slippery slope someone mentioned earlier .......

“Diversity is inherently racist”. I disagree. I believe that diversity makes teams better.
 

“what if it was all black?”. Then it would be equally not diverse.

Has he really recruited anybody? This is his first head coaching job and he has been largely in the shadows. I’m concerned if he doesn’t show up to some of these parents houses with a diverse coaching staff he is going to run into issues.

I think we need more 150 lb linemen. It's just not fair to the little guys.

Where's the love for Chinese coaches? I'm a little pissed.

The dumbest most useless thread I’ve ever seen in this blog. A waste of time and energy.

Is 247 sports run by all white guys? If so, that list they compiled is useless imo.
