Now, don't get me twisted, because I have nothing against a minority head coach. How do you think it feels to a minority if they are the one brought in to comply with an affirmative action rule? Especially in a situation where they know that the team may already have someone in mind? They know that they're just going through the motions. And that's bullshit. To me, I think that's a slap in the face, and worse than not being interviewed at all.

Definitely. Fucking hate the Rooney Rule. Yet if a black guy is the first person you interview, you don't need to interview anybody of any other race.
I don't care if my head coach is white, black, yellow, red, brown, or green. Just get me someone who wins.
