What was this nigga doing to rupture his shit again? Ain’t you supposed to be damn near immobilized for a few months after Achilles surgery?
 
Yall still giving me thumbs down about the Rooney rule.

There were 3 black coaches when it came out 21 years ago. There are 4 black coaches in the league right now.

Teams are obviously bringing in black coaches just to get it out of the way so they can hire who they want... like the Pats.

I don't get how y'all are getting tricked while having the truth right in front of you, haha.

"The Rooney rule is good even though 20 years later we only have 1 more black coach than we did when it went into effect, and it leads to owners wasting black coaches' time by interviewing them for jobs they have no chance of getting."

So it hasn't helped any black coaches -- none at all -- get HCing jobs?

Cause if someone wants to crap it that badly, that is the only reason I can see to take such a stand.

If by itself it is inadequate, why not propose supplementing it with an additional program/policy, as opposed to scrapping it?

No. I don't think it has helped with head coaching jobs. It's done good things for coordinators, but the required interviews for head coaches isn't helpful.

By helpful you mean a team brought in a black candidate that they had no legit interest in, just so they could meet the requirement... and ended up giving him the job?

20 years with minimal impact isn't good just because it possibly wasn't NO impact. I'm not saying the should scrap it. But they need to do something with it besides pretending like it's doing something to help.

I think the question I have for you is which black head coaches has it gotten a job?
 
He gotta get the ring this year dawg.
NOPE
