Out of the 117 Division 1-A teams, only 4 head coaches are black: not in any order:
1) UCLA- Carl Dorrell
2) Notre Dame: Tyrone Willingham
3) San Jose State: Fitzgerald Hill
4) New Mexico State: Tony Samuel
This year, UCLA was blown out by the Utah Utes: 44-6, currently 4th place in the Mountain West Conference, they lost to Notre Dame (so far, Notre Dames' only win this year, currently at 1-7 in the Independents Conference (FBS), and lost today to Washington State, who was at the bottom of the Pac-10 (tied with Washington for 9th place) with an 0-4 conference record and 2-5 overall.
Sure, they upset Cal with a shocking win, but then again, UCLA plays to the level of their opponent. It was a given that they would lose today, because their opponent was lousy and they got owned 27-7.
So, my theory is that Carl Dorrell is not being fired because he is not only black, but he is the only black coach on a high-profile team, such as UCLA. If it isn't race, then what is it?
