I didn't say that. I said Rob shared his gameplan with Rex. My point was that McDaniels was free to share anything he wanted with the Pats whether he got hired immediately or not until after the season.
Why should he not be allowed in the building. There is no rule banning a coach of a team whose season is over from visiting practice of another team, so why should McDaniels, no longer a coach for any team be locked out of the building?
its definitely legal but no one made an issue out of it when the Cowboys did it in '09. http://espn.go.com/blog/afceast/post/_/id/9294/pasqualoni-from-unemployed-to-playoffs
