I don't know the in's and out's of the rule, but if a team can demonstrate that it made an effort to schedule interviews with a minority candidate, I would think the NFL would waive the rule. I mean, what would Pioli have to do, put an ad in the Classifieds of the KC Star asking for the first minority to show up at Arrowhead for a Head Coaching interview?

Here's another thought. If current demographic trends continue and we eventually have more people of Hispanic descent, would Mike Shanahan count as a minority candidate?
