"To think of all the African-American athletes who have played for these schools and we've just had the first head coach hired."

What happens with a lot of African-American athletes is that they don't get enough credit for being intelligent.

Until the late 1960's, many of the best African-American athletes, especially those in the South, attended black institutions.

The combined graduation rate of male and female African-American athletes was 52 percent, 4 percentage points higher than last year's.

"African-American athletes are working on developing those economic systems."

"Coach provided those opportunities and was able to recruit a lot of great African-American athletes."

My concern for the young professional African-American athlete is growing.

He later emerged as a worldwide sociological voice for African-American athletes.

And the point is, African-American athletes are role models in this school.

Curiously, African-American athletes, particularly at the professional level, have remained outside the movement.
