Twitter: Jerry’s top 2 candidates - Urban and Josh McDaniels

[texbumthelife]

FYI...Here's Jim Harbaugh contract, the way I'm understanding it is he can walk away now w/o owning Michigan anything.

He's stated over and over he has no desire to return to the NFL.

Vegas Odds
Urban Meyer +300
Josh McDaniels +400
Lincoln Riley +500
Robert Saleh +500
Sean Payton +600
Jim Harbaugh +1200
Ken Norton Jr +1600
Kris Richard +1600

He's stated over and over he has no desire to return to the NFL.

That may be true but if he loses to Ohio State Sat, he could very well be out of a job.

I wouldn't be opposed to bringing in Norton Jr. to run the defense, but he's been critical of the Cowboys and the Joneses in particular in the last so I doubt that happens.

Should be Urban Meyer and Lincoln Riley as Garrett's top 2 contenders for the next Cowboys head coaching job.

As long as Harbaugh wants to coach, someone will give him a job. He'll never be hard up for employment.

Belichick's coaching tree resembles Charlie Brown's Xmas tree

So true......their records are pretty bad once they leave the Brady/Belichick system.

I don't want to disappoint myself when Jerry give golden boy Garrett a new contract.

yes please!
Let’s go after a fired college coach

 

[Whyjerry]

Wow hard hitting reporting there.

That list would apply to every team in the league if they were looking for a coach.

 

[TheSport78]

Let’s lure Parcells out of retirement. Get it done, Jerruh.

I know we're somewhat working apples to oranges here, but there seems to be this false narrative flying around..or cherry picking of certain statistics revolving around Meyers coaching and recruiting.

In his first year at Bowling Green, without his guys, he went 8-3..finishing off 17-6 overall in his two years..leaving for Utah..

Where he then went 10-2, without his guys. Maybe I'm looking too far into it, but I believe that speaks volumes about his ability.

Then, of course, you always have to consider his health..

I was specifically referring to his time at OSU and UF, not BGU or Utah.
Good point regarding his health. He had that benign brain cyst that gave him really bad headaches at OSU. He also had some heart problems. The NFL typically doesn’t make coaches’ health improve.

 

[CWR]

I want Belichick.

How many first round picks would you give up for him? Id part with 2 without blinking.

 

[CoachD]

Oh you mean the same guy that failed as a head coach in Denver, figures!

 

[Hennessy_King]

I will punch myself in the face if we hire McDaniels.

He's a meathead, an idiot, an unmitigated egomaniac. That dipwad thought he was so much smarter than anyone else when he used a first round pick on Tim Tebow.

Then he went straight douchey when he backed out of the Colts job after taking it (which turned out to be a blessing as Reich is probably a better coach anyway).

Ding Ding Ding. Forward this post to Jerry

 

[nate dizzle]

Happily take either at this stage...

 

[DeaconBlues]

...McDaniels would be interesting. I can see him taking the job on a 1 or 2 yr deal.

No coach will sign a one or two year deal.

 

[robbieruff]

Greg Roman for me, please.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

no to Meyer, McDaniels perhaps since it will be his second go round as a coach and he may do better, but I strongly believe mcdaniels won't come here, since he is more like bilicheck and he wouldn't put up with jerry meddling.

did I say no to Meyer?

 

[McKDaddy]

I like Urban Meyer too. But I’m not sure he would agree to the kind of interference that’s baked into the cake here.

Plus, is he ready for the talent leveling he never experienced when he was Ohio State and Florida? When he lined up on Saturdays at OSU, he had an enormous talent advantage he won’t experience in the NFL. It’s a major adjustment for guys like Saban and Meyer who aren’t used to opponents being as good or better in talent.

Would he be Pete Carrol, who has proven to be great at both CFB and the NFL or Nick Saban who is great in CFB but was an NFL flop?

He also lined up in the SEC and won National Championship. None of that means he will be a great NFL coach but he's more than a one trick pony at the college level so about all the resume you could expect.
