He has won a Super Bowl, and you can never take that away from the guy. But the jury is still out whether he is a good coach or not.
I don't like the rule, I think it's an insult most of the time. Who know's maybe the Steelers felt obligated to hire Tomlin. It is call the Rooney Rule. No matter what/where the job opening, it should just be based on credentials and whether that person is the best person for the job no matter what color they are. That goes for everything, not just football.
