that we've hired a lot of black basketball coaches compared to other universities and one narrative I've heard during those searches and hires is that they'd "relate better to black athletes," which clearly isn't true and ultimately might be the opposite. So if it's predictable to point out facts, then I guess you got me.

Oh and I don't give 2 fvcks about our WBB, but if you like baseball, DRF hired a black coach with a losing record. Read into it what you will.
