Let’s talk about who’s losing….
» Among 2010 Men’s March Madness teams, 45 teams graduated 70% of their white players while only 20 teams graduated 70% of their black players.
» Approximately 95% of BCS head football coaches are white. Approximately 50% of players are African American.
» Division I men’s basketball players devoted an average of 36 hours a week to athletics while devoting 32 hours to academic activities.
Please join us as we examine the issues of race and intercollegiate sports through a wide and comprehensive lens. Losing to Win, a two-day conference featuring the perspectives of athletes, academics, administrators, and journalists, will initiate a direct and ongoing dialogue around the variables that impact today’s student-athletes of color.
