The NFL passed the Rooney Rule in 2003 to increase opportunities for minorities seeking to become head coaches. It seemed to help for a while, but in retrospect, it looks like Tony Dungys coaching tree fueled a short-term spike that has been unsustainable.Here are the top takeaways from our study on the NFLs minority coaching failure:1. Recent stagnation: Twenty-one of 22 first-time head coaches hired from 2012-2016 were white. Thats identical to hiring figures from 1997-2001 and a clear regression from the first nine years of the Rooney Rule (2003-11), when 32 of the 42 first-time head coaches were white. A minority assistant coach said: Remember the old thing [where they said] you cant win with a black quarterback? It is almost like that for the coaches.2. White coaches fill the most upwardly mobile jobs: Eighty of the NFLs 85 current offensive coordinators, QB coaches and offensive quality control coaches are white; 23 of 32 current defensive coordinators are white. The Rooney Rule does not currently apply to coordinator openings, which Cardinals coach Bruce Arians said he would like to see change.?3. Clear path to becoming a head coach: Ninety-four percent of head coaches hired over the past 20 years had previously served as NFL coordinators, pro head coaches or college head coaches. With the majority of coordinator positions occupied by white coaches (as discussed in No. 2), minorities are at an inherent disadvantage for head coaching positions. The result? White coaches have filled 120 of the 141 head coaching vacancies since 1997.4. Missing Dungy: Coaches with ties to Dungy account for 43 percent of minority head coaching hires over the past 20 years, including 39 percent under the Rooney Rule, but Dungys coaching tree stopped growing when he retired following the 2008 season.5. Difference between coaches and players:?Approximately one-third of all NFL coaches are minorities, while two-thirds of players are African-American. One minority coach said you better have some [coaches] who can relate to black players, but only three coaching staffs have at least 50 percent minority coaches this season.Saucony Running Shoes Ireland Sale .
