I posted this article for a reason. Because TSU/Bama brought up a point about black coaches.
The same player would never argue with a Coach K, Tom Izzo, Jim Calipari, or Nick Saban. Because, some of us have been raised to never question white people, or question their authority (i.e. on the job).

So do I.
People have bad days, players as well as coaches. This happens....
Or it could be argued, that Howard (to his credit) allows his players to (at times) express themselves to the coaches without fear of blowback or being kicked off the team.

I agree.
I agree. People do have bad days. Players as well as coaches. Things like this do happen. But to say "much to do about nothing". That is what I disagree with. What if some of his teammates began to react to Coach Howard the same way?
I'm speaking of my own personal experiences in huddles, practices and games. This happens all the time. Not once did it change the trajectory of our program. And im talking about the 80's when coaches didnt play with you!
Oh. Ok.
lol - on the high school level - especially in a small town or a winning program. When you win people will adapt quickly - building a program people don't want to be patient. In Texas, its hard for blacks to get a successful suburban program where there are numbers. But we'll line up to play at those schools even if the coaching staff is a throwback to the 50s cause they win. When those 50s type coaches leave they know there's a talent drop coming down the pipeline and then they'll hand it over to us and now you're stuck with disgruntled parents used to how it was in the past who never said anything
I guess you forgot about Latrell Sprewell and PJ Carlisimo.
