He's not an anamonoly amoung coaches No amount of mental health professional hires can mitigate harm done by continuimg to allow people like him to profit off people he hates Current inequities in college sports embolden "leaders" like this to take hateful msgs to bigger stages
A reminder that Tommy Tuberville was a collegiate coach for nearly 30 years, during which he coached scores of Black players. He made millions off their abilities, but here’s what he really thinks about Black folks.

I hope every coach, admin, and athlete has the opportunity to feel supported in their career. It isn’t promised. I don’t take it for granted. It’s critical to establishing trust. Trust transcends money, facilities, or weather. There’s a reason we win on the Palouse @WSUCougarFB

When I sent this email to @VoteBaumgartner my current job was illegal. I thought experiences with football/USMC would take me to the Palouse (it didn't). Apparently, Navigating #NIL is more akin to piracy, maneuver warfare, and counter-insurgency than Air Raid principles 😂.

@michelleobama (@wyhs) & @maejemison (@morganparkhigh) = @chipubschools graduates. Black girls capable of achieving what these women have exist in CPS schools right now. Invest in the southside of Chicago – the future of the city, nation, and space exploration lives there.

"ROI." If you need evidence on why it's critical to retain, hire, and promote female athletes bookmark this - videos are exactly 365 days apart. @Vol_Soccer / @Vol_Track developed on-field. @Vol_Sports committed to making #VFL more than a just a hashtag. https://t.co/UGLQGOwdER
"It was student-athletes, it was staff, it was coaches coming together to have a conversation about things that matter." This past week, @UTVolife hosted a film and discussion event focused on the Black Athlete Experience. #BlackHistoryMonth

"Jackie Robinson is best known for breaking Major League Baseball’s color barrier. Less well known, but just as pivotal, is his 1944 court-martial after refusing to move to the back of a military bus." https://t.co/VOU2XgkLQd
