Indiana, and that their 'contract' doesn't really do anything to keep him in his current job. Who's he going to threaten to sue over that?!?

They are NOW! Before, coaches and administrators had to be DEI approved for hire. Not any more. Now we can get back to hiring people who are excellent at their jobs!! DEI eventually destroys everything it touches.

Call it what you want to, but this is 2025 and despite the orange hair guy's efforts to change everything he does not like, DEI will never go away.

Regardless of what you think of the President, there are men and there are women. They aren't the same and society knows it. Learn the difference.

She is obviously an excellent coach- certainly no DEI going on there. I don’t like her stance on men in women’s sports but hiring her would be worth it just to see Gamecock heads explode.

Any organization should always take into account inclusion but never move away from merit based. Many organizations hire relatives that are not the best they can get. The same for inclusion, you should always consider this in your organization but I’m glad it is not being forced down your throat now.

Yes, and those initiatives pre-date the recent DEI initiatives, which came in floods after the George Floyd incident.

DEI initiatives in general came in floods in corporates in all types of different industries after George Floyd and BLM. Entire departments and leadership positions were created, policies enacted, etc. That is all relatively new, and is already being phased out in many businesses.
Pre-existing policies like Title IX and Affirmative Action are decades old.

despite actual qualifications, especially in college athletics and coaching. It is very much a good old boys network where nepotism and the like supersedes who would get the job on merit.

saddis56® good job. I think you were right in challenging that statement as it relates to the current administration.
In seasons 1-4 Jared and Ivanka were White House advisors and were very involved. Show runner Donald Trump caught a lot of slack for casting the two and your can see in season 5 those two are staying in the private sector and out of the limelight.
In season 5 though, I’m not aware of any immediate or near immediate family with official positions.
And while not a government position, Eric’s wife was co-producer of the RNC but stepped down in December to pursue a singing career

Just happy we both agree that many people aren't hired based on merit. For many
Mar 18, 2025, 9:09 AM
|

different reasons (hiring initiatives, 'network', nepotism) it is quite often that the one who uses just merit to get the job won't get it and that's a problem.

So you "think" there is no affect of hiring based on political labels vs. actual qualifications? Good grief.
I think those tendencies existed before, and will exist after, DEI policies were enacted. DEI changed nothing.

African Americans dominate most sports out of merit based because they are the best athletes. When you are truly trying to win you put the best guy on the field no matter what color of his or her skin. There can be a little different mentality in the business community but to the point you sink your organization.

Everyone, including me wants fair treatment for employment and employee's. But lets stop pretending that DEI has anything to do with that. DEI is just a political tool to divide and create needless animosity so the crooks in DC can spend your money to fix it.
