neither of us could come up with a decent African-American actor in his late-20s/early-30s who doesn't look like a kid and could pull of the part. Any ideas out there?
Taye Diggs (maybe pushing the age). Larenz Tate. Mekhi Pfifer.

Principal McHottie? Richard Jones (FBI agent on SCC)? Jesse L. Martin? Taye Diggs? Richard Brooks?

Jesse L. Martin?
Mmmmmm! Love. Though it may be Detective Green that I *really* love.

But isn't the role more a younger man in his 20s/early 30s? I love Perrineau, Martin, Ejiofor, Cheadle, and Cube, but they're all pushing 40, if not actually there by now, right?

Jesse L. Martin is love.
