I know the CBA is on the net, but I don't know if the leagues by-laws or whatever are. Somebody here should know. That Guy? GTripp? Canuck? Earthquake?

Did more looking: This article seems to indicate that "minority" is the operative term:

ESPN - Thanks to Rooney Rule, doors opened - NFL

Any minority candidate fills the Rooney Rule.

Just to throw a curve into this mishuggah situation, maybe Schwartz is Jewish, and thereby fits the Rooney rule as a minority. We are but 2% of the population, you know. And god knows, there have been few enough of us as head coaches in the NFL--Marv Levy comes to mind. But maybe Schwartz is not Jewish.
