Larussa represents the gray area that we all know exists. Yes he is a hall of fame manager with many accolades. No, there was not a valid open hiring process that we all know should exist. The white Sox past hiring practices show that they have been progressive in hiring minority candidates and do not shy from it, but they did not give one chance here and that really sucks. Should there be a rule similar to the Rooney rule in the mlb? Maybe, it seems that in the majors that they have gotten to the point where minority candidates aren't a surprise or sham interview anymore
