He hired Lucas, but Dennis Green was already the Head Coach at Minnesota when Red bought the team in 1998.He did however, keep Green on for 3 more seasons. Red has been around too many professional athletes and management personnel to spout off racist comments, but then one never knows what lies in another man’s heart. I took his “qualified to be a coordinator” comment to mean as far as coaching at UT is concerned. Does his name belong in the same hat as Gruden, Saban, and Fisher? Not yet, I believe, but maybe in the future. Time will tell.
