Looking at this, it seems that we may have narrowed it down and looking at whoever wanted this guy as a DC.  They seem to be vetting it out, to get a good feel on if it(staff the coach likes) makes sense.

To me it looks like they're trying to get the rooney rule interviews out of the way because they already know who they want to hire, whether that be Wilks or one of the rising OCs out there.

The fact they have been blasting out requests to all these minority coaches the past few days makes me think they already like Wilks to take over next season.

Just my guess though.

I can't read, it's for a coordinator position.

The tweet said they're considering him for a coordinator position, so I don't believe this has anything to do with the Rooney Rule.

This says for a Coordinator  position. Therfore it doesn't qualify for the Rooney Rule. This is pointing towards a staff that someone wants assembled.

fug yeah. I don't know what it definitely means as far as the HC, but that we're probably hiring an OC as HC and getting a much-needed DC to pair up with him.

The more I think about it, the more it is definitely  pointing away from Wilks. I'd assume Wilks would want to keep Holcomb as DC, so you are on to something.  We just interviewed  Shane yesterday  virtually  but it seems steam is picking up between him and Ben Johnson.

Only link I can find between the HC candidates and Manuel is Ken Dorsey. They played together at Miami for 3 seasons.

Definitely  something to keep an eye on. I'm not the biggest Dorsey fan out of the selections but don't hate him.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
