There are still 0 black coaches in the SEC. How many black coordinators?
Yet the majority of the players are overwhelmingly black. This is inexcusable.

I think Dawn Staley is black. Might be other black coaches. Tennessee has had other black head coaches in the past, maybe not in football though.

This is apart of a much larger issue. 0 black coaches in the SEC is inexcusable in 2021.

Times are changing bud, people are changing. It won’t happen over night. Eric Bienemy is a star in the making and will get a shot. Tony Elliott, apparently is an up and comer, who will have plenty of opportunities. I believe James Franklin was seriously in play(at least on our end). In the case of Tee, I don’t think he is qualified for an SEC head coaching gig.
GBO!!

T martin has never been a head coach, he couldn't even get a job at South Alabama!! I'm so sick of the damn race card, you have to hire somebody because the color of their skin how damn stupid is that

Preach on brother, I so agree with you. Interview somebody due to the color of their skin instead of their credentials......... absurd.
is Tony Elliott not a man of color?

while I’m not that guy I agree. No interview for Tee is a slap in the face

Any ties to Philip Fulmer must go, cleansing is needed. So Tee didn't get interviewed so what. If wants to prove he can coach then he needs to go to a group of 5 school . Heupel didn't get interviewed for the Oklahoma job after Stoops left.

Not at all disingenuous. The SEC has a very long history of racism. Black people getting a chance in coaching has been an issue since the sport was created. This is not a meritocracy. Again, there are 0 black head coaches in this conference*. How many black coordinators? There is very little activism going on to change this obvious issue. It is inexcusable and an eye sore in 2021.

People are writing Albert off because of who he is but I guarantee he knows more than the majority of this board in regards to how the athletic department works. Who is the most prominent black person in UT’s AD? Trey Smith’s sister? Anyways, those who harp on a single person and are incapable of seeing the bigger point are making excuses imo.

The SEC has a long history of racism? So about 40 years of existence compared to the 50 more years the Big Ten was racist?

Albert haynesworth is an alcoholic domestic abuser with drug problems. Who cares what he thinks?

I have a feeling Tee and Steele both were told or promised some things by Fulmer that isn't panning or hasn't panned out so they may not be happy

oh well

Unfortunately it isn’t about math. This is a historic problem. If you make the qualified argument you have to explin why they are not qualified.
Also, how many coordinators? ADs? Presidents? Is that proportional? Also, isn’t this the wrong calculation when the overwhelming majority of players are black?
Can you point me to the article that gave you that number btw?

^This one has 14 coaches and that was before Mason got fired. That would make below 9% and again, 0 in the SEC.

Guess mason’s blackness wasn’t enough to overcome his lack of coaching skills?

Allegedly Tee had a verbal agreement with Fulmer for a new contract, there was some slick stuff going on behind the scenes

While I understand where big Al is coming from and I do believe there is plenty of evidence that there is systemic racism at Tennessee; there was absolutely no evidence that Tee was ready for this job.

Tell us all some examples of the Systemic Racism you've uncovered at Tennessee, Sherlock. (Insert Crickets)
