Umm what?

David Culley is most definitely not Lebanese. Saleh is of Lebanese descent though.

Ok I should take your word for it I guess and not actual information. Both of his parents are of Lebanese decent. How does that make him African American? That's like calling me Caucasian when both my parents were Native Americans. You racist think your skin color dictates your race. It's pretty pathetic.

Well this is what I read from here (https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/sports/nbcsports/report-ravens-wr-coach-david-culley-to-be-hired-as-new-texans-head-coach/2553743/)

Culley is the second minority candidate to be hired this cycle and is the first African-American.

It’s been reported in many places. Here: https://www.houstonchronicle.com/texas-sports-nation/texans/article/As-NFL-criticized-for-minority-hiring-record-15904274.php

The Houston newspaper called him “black” and so if I made a mistake referring to where he was born, so be it. He’s been considered black in pretty much every report and then I added that Saleh as a Muslim is also considered by many to be a minority hire because I’m pretty sure he is the first.

Also, go fug yourself with your racist baiting. I didn’t assume, I recalled from reading about Bienemy not getting hired. Maybe you should stop assuming that Culley doesn’t consider himself black because he’s light skinned, asshole (referring to you not him).

This is exactly why racist don't think they are racist. Your skin color doesn't dictate your race. Yes he is probably the first Lebanese head football coach. That's great but it doesn't change the fact that no African American was even thought of seriously for a HC spot. It's been over 100 years since slavery ended yet African Americans are still in a country that doesn't want them. They were never meant to be citizens. They were ment for the same fate as my people. Put on reservations and striped of their heritage.

So funny when people get hit with the truth. I guess all minorities who stand up for their culture are idiots now right? We probably should just sit down and be quite right? 

I apologize for the tone of that message but I was extremely drunk. Regardless it's like you didn't read the any of the replies and just doubled down on your wrong position. Once again- David Culley IS NOT LEBANESE, and NEITHER ARE HIS PARENTS. He's an African American man from Tennessee.  Conversely, Robert Saleh IS Lebanese, as both his parents are Lebanese. This is exactly what he stated and you attacked him for hit, then when we tried to correct you, you doubled down on being wrong. I was in no way arguing against the fact that there needs to be more diversity at the head coaching and executive level in the NFL.

He is Lebanese. Here is the link and he was born in Michigan.

Per the source he has Lebanese parents. Yes he may be of African but Lebanese hold many cultural DNA markers. Some from Europe and some from Africa. Either way he's Lebanese American.

Oh interesting, I have never seen that his parents were lebanese from any other sources or that he was born in michigan. I stand corrected if true but something's not adding up. Pretty much every other source refers to him as african american and born in Sparta Tennessee. Kind of crazy to have two coaches of lebanese descent hired in one cycle if true.

    • If we don't go OT, we will regret it.  What bothers me?  Are we going to get a starting-caliber OT at 19?  I think the draft is solid at OT, and the more I read up and watch video, the more I watch Lomu, the more I want him.   I see Freeling as a RT who needs some work in run blocking (since we need to run first, maybe not a good fit) and I see Proctor ending up as a Guard.  After Lomu (assuming Mouigia and fanu are gone), I think we wait until round 2.  In round 2, there are about 3-4 I like (Zuhn--good pass blocker and VERY underrated right now; Tiernan is a very good pass blocker as is Miller from Clemson, but both are not good in the run game.  Max Ixxxxx from Ariz St is impressive too---technically, there is not a of difference in these second tier guys--good in pass pro, need work in the run game.   If we wait until round 2 for an OT, we probably need to sign Nijman and start him early.   I almost think this is what we should do if Lomu is gone.  There is a big dropoff after him, imo, and I think we'd get better value if a stud ILB or edge is there.  Someone like TJ Parker Clemson makes sense. If Lomu is gone, trading back might be the play.  
    • And what is x gunna help with except show him what not to do. Plus for the first year and a half he was just an obstacle 
    • I understand that some people want WR. I am solidly against using yet another high pick there. Coker is pretty good and we used No picks on him.  What I think we really need at WR is a little bit of a Smitty lite. It is ridiculous to say let’s get a Smitty because you just can’t do that, but someone not tall and long striding but more in his mold. I think we’d have a pretty well rounded group.    Looking at tackle, with replacing Moton looming, it just seems like the no brainer.  You fill in Icky short term. Depending on how he recovers, and how the new guy plays, you go from there. A tackle at 19 is most likely either a LOT, a ROT, or a big talented guard, at worst. We will need all three in the next couple of years.  I would love to have a stud ILB be there at 19 but the OL is the responsible thing to do I believe.
