Beware of the HC that wants the job

[CouchCoach]

Do you wonder why Meyer and Riley are not being mentioned for the other HC openings?

A lot here want Meyer because of what he did in college and that worked out well for Saban and Spurrier so transferring that accomplishment to the NFL isn't a given and Johnson was the exception, not the rule.

Doesn't it make you wonder when Meyer is openly politicking for the job? That is exactly the last guy you want for a HC, a guy that needs the job.

Do you think Booger went to Parcells or vice versa? Where does the position of strength rest? With the pursuer or the pursed? Which type of HC is Booger willing to relinquish any of that power to, the man after the job or the man they're after.

The only way this problem gets fixed is if he has to relinquish some control and involvement and that is not happening with that weasel Meyer openly tossing his hat in the ring.

Back to that original question, why do you think they're being associated with only one possible HC opening?

At this moment, I will take Bobby Boucher over the clapper. Meyer and Riley might not be a good fit but as long as we don't see Garrett clapping, spitting and staring like a deer in the headlights, I am all for it.

I'm sure Urban can have many many jobs. Riley wouldn't leave OK from anyone, except maybe the Cowboys.

He was asked if he'd coach the Cowboys and he answered. Don't really think he can be blamed for that.

I wonder why people who obviously know next to nothing about Meyer keep pontificating about him. He didn't lobby for the job. He was asked a question by Cowherd and answered it.

He coached my alma mater for several years. I followed him closely. Here's some things you don't understand. He doesn't "need" the job. He's chosen to leave jobs twice and go back into TV twice and hasn't had a problem finding work during that time. Nothing has changed. If he's offered a job he finds intriguing he'll take it. If not, he won't.

The funny thing about Spurrier and Saban is neither of them ever had a decent QB in the NFL. Jimmy had prime Aikman and looked good. He didn't look so good with over-the-hill Dan Marino.

IIRC, Parcells actually was the initiator in that he sent a message to JJ stating that he thought they would work well together. JJ then set up the tarmac meeting and they came to an agreement. At least, that's my recollection of his hiring. As to your main point, though, I'm not sold on Meyer either, though I admittedly don't know much about the guy.

 

[OmerV]

He was asked if he'd coach the Cowboys and he answered. Don't really think he can be blamed for that.

Exactly. Fans seem to think these things come out of people holding press conferences or going out of the way to make a public declaration, but generally it is just the media digging by asking a question, and the person giving an answer.

I'm not sure the premise is accurate that Meyer "needs" a job anyway. I'm sure his bank account is sufficiently padded such that he doesn't "need" a job at all. At this point it is a matter of what he wants to do.

Are they not being mentioned for other HC openings? I don't have a good feel for that. But in any case, Riley is an understandable thought given his success and the regional fan support that overlaps with the Big 12 and the Cowboys.

 

[cowboyec]

in fairness....Urban was asked a question by Cowherd and gave an honest answer.
too me,thats not politicing.
and I believe he said thats the one call you take...doesnt necessarily mean he'd take the job.
I want Meyer because of the names being mentioned....he's the best,most accomplished coach.

Riley isn't politicking for anything. The Joneses are friends with him ever since Stephen's son was going through the recruiting process.

Urban Meyer is anxious to remove the stain on him for the domestic violence cover-up at Ohio State. His reputation is trash, and I don't even know why anyone would want him working for their network at this point. Why Dallas would entertain this is beyond me.

Here's one thing you are forgetting...

Meyer and Riley have far more football knowledge than Garrett does. They are better game managers. Just that alone makes them already better than what we have.

 

[CyberB0b]

Meyers isn't desperate for a job.

Being an OSU fan doesn’t make you the Urban Meyer expert bro. He may not “need the job” but it’s pretty clear he wants it badly.

Get out of here with your spot on observations and on-point intuitions! There's blood in the water and (most) Cowboys fans are willing to overlook the next pawn as long as the current one is sacrificed.

We are like most citizens of dictatorships that are happy when the old leader is replaced with a new one who is just as inept and/or corrupt. Jerry has most of us wrapped around his oily little pinky finger.

It’s media and fan created because the Cowboys are a high profile position and these are high profile coaches along with whatever casual relationship Riley has with Jerry which I’m not really clear on and the fact Meyer mentioned the Cowboys are a desirable venue.

Unfortunately there’s no indication Jerry even wants to make a change as he’s stubbornly hanging on when it’s obvious Garrett must go now.

The toxic environment Jerry punctuated after the Patriot loss which was so unnecessary after such an opponent which was most loseable game on the schedule has delivered the eventual verdict and Garrett at that point became a Lame Duck HC.

I’d argue Jerry doesn’t even have a prospective list at this point. There’s really no telling what direction he’ll go and I wouldn’t assume either of these coaches either actually want or will be pursued.

Speak for yourself . Some of us have called Jerry out and will continue to regardless the effects.

Oh please.

The Cowboys job is a total ego move for any coach and most of these guys are ego maniacs.

Are you a Garrett fan?

Bring on Meyer for better or worse but don't bring in some nobody that is grateful to the Jones's for giving him a job he doesn't deserve like Garrett.
