Re: May the Schwartz be with you?

All the stuff about letting the coaches know and giving them indications blah blah blah is garbage...Unless they want to get their butts sued, they can't go around saying we're interviewing x number of candidates but *wink* *wink* we already have our man

True, but from the last paragraph of JLC's blog, I don't take it that way. It sounds like DS hasn't even communicated w/the coaches, which is a far cry from telling someone they have the job. Seems if you knew who you wanted to hire, you'd at least have the proffessional courtesy to communicate something to them when they're currently on your pay roll.

If Gibbs is going to be Snyder's advisor,start advising already. Well there is always a chance Gibbs don't want GW to get the gig,but that's hard to fathom.

I guess we will just have to continue to pull our hair out and wait and see.

Re: May the Schwartz be with you?

I'm seriously wondering if the text of the Rooney Rule says "minority" or "African-American" or what? I can't find any actual text and all the articles I've read use the two terms interchangably as if they meant exactly the same thing. A little help?

I think that happened in Detroit when they hired Mariucci. As I recall, they got slammed. I don't remember, however, if Matt "I was a teenage GM" Millen even interviewed a minority candidate.

BTW - with the various openings, I find it interesting that one of last years hot coaches is not even being mentioned - Rob Rivera. I wonder why that is, especially since he seems to fit the Rooney Rule.
