Summary

On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock discusses some recent incidents in the football world that show the black coaching crisis, namely: the suspension of 27 players after a brawl broke out at halftime of the Grambling State vs. Bethune-Cookman game; Michael Penix Jr. saying he has no other quarterbacks to talk to and no mentor; and Deion Sanders pointing the finger and playing the blame game in excusing the University of Colorado’s dismal season under his leadership. Guests Steve Kim, T.J. Moe, and Paul Burkhardt join the show to weigh in on the black coaching crisis and A.J. Brown voicing his frustration with the Philadelphia Eagles. Lastly, Whitlock closes out the show with his take on Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown apologizing for offending people with his celebratory “Trump dance.” Another compelling show today — don’t miss it!
