Where's Jesse?

UPDATE: It's not Jesse (although it might as well be), but AJC columnist Terence Moore demands that Bama hire Sly Croom.

Several head coaching positions remain open, but we have yet to hear from Jesse Jackson. Remember when Alabama hired Mike Shula? Jesse was outraged all over himself because Sly Croom wasn't hired. Jesse even called for an investigation into Alabama's hiring practices. The SEC was a racist conference who had never hired a black head football coach.

Well, where is Jesse now? Miami has an opening and a credible black candidate in Randy Shannon. Has the ACC ever had a black head coach? Get on that, Jesse. Quit hanging out with Kramer and work up some outrage. There are a lot of openings for black coaches, so start the press conferences.

Hell, Alabama is about to hire a hispanic coach. How can you let that happen, Jesse?
