Neither. Rupp was definitely not a racist. Ky was playing all comers, when other southern schools refused to play teams with black players. He recruited over 15 black players at that time but was unable to convince them to come to Ky. He finally signed Tom Payne in 1969 and was one of the early SEC teams to do so.
