COLLEGE FOOTBALL COACHES


In a recent coaching change, Ole Miss signed former Arkansas Head Football coach Houston Nutt. There was a large controversy in this coaching move. There is a large argument around college football that there aren't enough black head coaches out there. There is supposedly a rule in place that forces Div. I-A schools to at least interview one African American coach. In this recent coaching move, there was no African American interviewed. This sturred up a huge debate on whether or not they broke any unwritten rules or not. I believe that the best man for the job should be the one to actually get the job. I've always believed that. I think the reason why there is such a disperity between the number of white football coaches and black football coaches might be due to the fact that there are simply more white applicants than black applicants. This may not be the case, but i think it might have something to do with it.
