Yo Mel, last week you were all about Colorado, yesterday you left them like a sit in a bag, wanna walk us through your thoughts on why you would betray a beautiful university like that to come to...wherever we are now?

Was Comp the only reporter to identify himself before he asked a question?

It seems to me it would SOP to identify yourself in the 1st press conference of a new coach.

I don't disagree. Maybe they all did, and I just didn't hear it.

Watched the whole presser. Comp was the only one. I recognized other voices like Ebbling.

Some of those attending probably weren’t excited about identifying themselves to everyone there.

Who was the numbnuts that went down the race road? They said that MSU "broke the color barrier" in college football, and asked what it was like coming here after that transpired 60 years ago.

Ok, while that sounds good and everything (and on some level we should appreciate inaccurate reporting that makes us look good for a change), it was wholly inaccurate on just about every level.
From saying that MSU "broke" the color barrier, to the fact that there wasn't even a color barrier to break (not in Northern schools), to the fact that even if there was, and MSU broke it, then we broke it well over 100 years ago.

Just because we famously built a dominant team with some key black players from the SOUTH that were not allowed to attend/play at SOUTHERN schools, doesn't mean that we were the first to have black players, or that that was the first time we (or anyone else) had black players.

Of course we've been one of the leaders in diversity in the athletic department and the University as a whole, but it goes back LONG before the 60s (Gideon Smith, if not earlier), and there is no definitive Branch Rickey/Jackie Robinson moment in college or pro football where things suddenly changed.

I don't know, maybe I'm yelling at clouds, it is just a pet peeve of mine when history is so badly misrepresented.

I don't know enough but other northern teams at the time but to take from Couch's 3 Quick Takes article there's something like 12 or 13 schools that have an African American Coach out of 130 programs. Also, Tucker becomes one of the highest paid African American coaches. I think that's a pretty good thing.

It is a good thing. I hope my post didn't come across as anything to the contrary. Just commenting on the reporter being clueless in his set up to the question.
