I agree with the "In part" of the bolded portion above. I remember when the AD made the comment. I knew, immediately, that his words would be taken out of context, not by you, but in general. A reporter from the Tallahassee Democratic asked him a specific question. The reporter stated that he'd heard rumors that Taggert and Fuente were strongly under consideration for the job, in which he then asked him was he specifically targeting minority candidates because of the fact that he had been so outspoken about minority coaches not getting a fair shot in college football. The AD replied by saying that of course, he would love to hire a minority coach at FSU, in which he furthered his point by saying that there are a lot of great options and some of them are indeed minorities.
Rok, I think you are a good poster on this board, and genuinely think you are a value add to the site. That is why I was a bit shocked when you appeared to be defending the racist *** comment that was made by ol' boy! I get your stance now, and yes, Willie being a minority played a factor in Jim becoming the HC at FSU, but it was not the determining factor, as what was racially mocked/suggested by @jackbenimble71.
