Deon Sanders.

"We're doing things that have never been done, and that makes people uncomfortable," Sanders said. "When you see a confident Black man sitting up here talking his talk, walking his walk, coaching 75% African Americans in the locker room, that's kind of threatening. Oh, they don't like that."


Black America's embrace of Sanders and his team is now well-documented. One Black commentator has compared him to Muhammad Ali. Numerous Black celebrities, from rappers Master P and Lil Wayne to LA Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard and actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, have made appearances at his games."

Sanders has even joked someone told him that by the time Colorado plays USC next week the stadium in Boulder is "going to look like the BET Awards."
