The future is not promising unless the BCA somehow regains its influence and powerful voice. There were a lot of coaches at the 2000 BCA Convention in Atlanta. Most were assistants or coaches at smaller schools. They are too vulnerable to speak up individually and need the collective, unified and clear voice of a BCA ready to call for action. Decision-makers may need a feeling that they have something to lose if they don't change their hiring practices.
Boycotts are one answer.
Women have been very effective in using lawsuits that costs universities big dollars. The BCA can use these and other tools.
