Auburn has found itself a coach

He makes some good points, but I dont agree with his point about black coaches only getting "SH***Y" jobs.

Karl Dorrel- UCLA
Ty Willingham- ND, Wash, Stanford
Sly Croom- Miss St
Randy Shannon- Miami
Ron Prince- K State

Last time I checked those were all great jobs except for maybe Stanford and Miss St. However, Stanford is very prestigious Pac10 school and Miss St was a perennial Top 20 team in the mid-late 90's. Both of those schools have the potential to be consistent bowl teams.

I do hope more black coaches get into Div I so that one day race is not even mentioned in discussions like this.

Doubt you could call U Dub prestigious. At least not in recent years. However, there was a time when they outsold the Seahawks.

UCLA has been mid-Pac in recent years. And we've absolutely pwned Miami!

Bottom line, several of these coaches are solid. They'll return a winning season and get to a bowl. But none are what I'd consider outstanding. This isn't to say that they're aren't good black coaches out there. Just that the FBS hasn't found it's Obama.

Tony Dungy or Mike Tomlin would probably be a better metaphor.

Ooops... that's right. O's been hired based on hype. We don't know if he'll be a good coach yet.

Okay. Let's go with Tomlin.

He should be bitch'n about them firing the good White coach. I know we beat their ass 2 times in a row, but he had beat Alabama, what 8 years in a row, got jew'd out of a N.C. shot, and had 1 bad year and couple mediocres.

When is Clark Atlanta and Morris Brown going to finally hire some White coaches and White band directors?

He didn't say he thought they should have fired TT, just that they made a bad hire. He also pointed to the resume as his problem. If they had hired someone with a better resume he may not have said anything at all.
