The race part comes from the Rooney rule failure and he has receipts from the text confirming the Giants had already decided on who they were hiring but need him to get round the Rooney rule. 

Also the race part comes from how coaches like he, Lovie Smith, old Lions coach, and even Houston coach don't get long leashes given the record they had when fired (with the exception of the Houston coach who had a bad record but certainly didn't deserve to be canned given what he walked into).

Also the number of African American coaches (that outweigh the number of non minority coaches) at the assistant coach level not really reflective the same way for the HC opportunities.

Can Marv getting the longest leash in history counter the point?  I think it's just team management.  Going to be very hard to prove race is the motivator at all in these scenarios, though it will certainly create some buzz.  

It would have been very interesting to see where Miami went if Brady had gone there.  Honestly, until the Tua move, I thought Miami was making the right moves in rebuilding.
