The Rooney Rule
I totally agree with diversity in coaching and equal opportunity for all. However ... Under the Rooney Rule, a team is required to interview one minority candidate. What if they have one or several non-minority coaches in mind? Well, then they still have to interview a minority to satisfy the rule, thus wasting everyone's time. That seems pointless, but I know it's politics.

Just sayin...
it should, but doesn't

they have a "incumbents don't count" clause in the rule

When it first came out the Lions got in trouble because no minorities would interview knowing they were looking at Mariuchi (sp).

Seriously, if an owner passes up a better more qualified coach because of color, he deserves to lose. Bad buisness is all it is. In America you should be able to interview or hire whoever you want for your buisness.

I look forward to the day that they start requiring teams to have white cornerbacks. You know, for fairness.

Does the Rooney rule apply to a fired black to be replaced with a clearly more qualified white guy in shanahan?

Somewhat, if all the presidents up to Obama were as black as stuck matches and he was the president everyone would be saying he is white.
