Buccaneers hire John Garrett

[jobberone]

IRVING, Texas -- Cowboys passing game coordinator/tight ends coach John Garrett has been hired as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' wide receivers coach, the latest change to Dallas' coaching staff.


"It just seemed that everybody was told, offensively and defensively, that there are going to be changes and everyone needs to know, as Jerry (Jones) indicated, that every aspect of the organization is subject to change," Garrett said. "When this opportunity came up, it was something that I was able to pursue and it worked out great."


Reports of in-house discord at Valley Ranch surfaced after this season, and Garrett and other coaches had been allowed to seek options with other teams. He applied for the University of Delaware's head-coaching vacancy, but interviewed with Buccaneers coach Greg Schiano last week.

Good move.

I think he did a decent job....it's been speculated Al Jr. was out of sorts because of Bennett...but I just don't buy that. He started off great but tailed off with the gspots this season. Plus.....I really think MB's ineffectiveness here was on MB mostly: lots of drops and laziness: he went to NY and dropped 15 lbs and got all cut up almost immediately: he was a clown here, not a football player IMO
