Go Gophers!!
Mr. Hallman, coaching is not about the color of one's skin, it's about the content of one's win-loss record.
Go Gophers!!
It’s way easier to write about a Black coach being fired when you do zero research and just say that we didn’t give him enough a chance because he’s Black3 of the last 5 coaches here have been black. Come on
Hey wait! Haven’t we fired 3 black coaches already?It’s way easier to write about a Black coach being fired when you do zero research and just say that we didn’t give him enough a chance because he’s Black
Most racist program in the country. All we do is fire Black coachesHey wait! Haven’t we fired 3 black coaches already?![]()
John ChaneyJohn Thompson
Lenny Wilkens
Doc Rivers
The guy who coached Temple
Nolan Richardson
Tony Dungy
These are all coaches who coached for a very long time and they share a skin color.
What they didn’t share is losing.
You hire ‘em we fire ‘em.Most racist program in the country. All we do is fire Black coaches
I never heard of this hack before today. I blame Ben.Who? Why does anyone give this nobody any attention?
Wonder what this year will look like, add Mike Woodson and Ben Johnson to the listLast offseason, for the guys who were fired (didn't go to a comparable job elsewhere), the conference winning percentage for the African American coaches was .364 and the winning percentage for the white coaches who were fired was .471. These numbers include Howard's numbers (by far the winningest AA coach who was fired) who punched an opposing coach. These numbers don't include guys like Andy Enfield and Calipari who left/pushed out but whose numbers would only help the white coaches.
Maybe I missed someone, but here are who I am counting:
African American coaches:
Tony Stubblefield - Depaul - 9-38
Kenny Payne - Louisville - 5-35
Juwon Howard - Michigan - 49-48
Mike Boynton - OK ST - 51-75
Rob Lanier - SMU - 16-20
Jerry Stackhouse - Vandy - 28-60
White coaches:
Chris Holtmann - Ohio State - 67-65
Jerod Haase - Stanford - 67-84
Mike Hopkins - Washington - 62-72
Woodson's record is about .500, but you need to caveat that with he has that record at Indiana. Ben Johnson's is obviously putrid.Wonder what this year will look like, add Mike Woodson and Ben Johnson to the list
He weighed in when Ben was hired and fired. In between he gave exactly zero ##$# about Gopher Basketball.Charles has had this diatribe written and ready to go since March 2021. Hilariously predictable.
The lack of engagement might have bothered me the most, as it's simply a matter of effort and choice. If, instead, he's not capable of engaging with customers, even superficially on social media, it's yet another reason he shouldn't have been hired.I wish they didn't have to fire him. I'd have been elated if he was coaching this weekend for a Big Ten Tournament title and a high seed in the tourney. He didn't win. He didn't engage the fans. This is a multi-million dollar operation. This is a results based business, and the results were poor.
He's the MBB Cheryl Littlejohn.The gophers haven’t had a coach without ncas sanctions miss 4 tourneys in a row since Jim dutcher
Ben Johnson is the worst coach in the history of the program
He is the basketball Jim wacker
