We don't give favoritism just because an African-American was hired at the institution. That wouldn't qualify for what we're trying to do (by assessing the hiring process, not the outcome). That search probably could have been done better. -Floyd Keith

This (upcoming) search year is going to be very significant in the decision as to where that goes. In the history of social change, there has always been some element of legal accountability that has had to be a part of the process. Hopefully, that doesn't have to happen.

We're not looking at the outcome [one hire]. That is what makes this a research design and not a quota mechanism. We theorize that over a period of time if institutions continue to follow the process quite naturally we'll have more coaches of color -- Latinos, Asians, African-Americans.
