Is it fair to say that Meyer is in the lead

[CowboyChris]

Is it fair to say that Meyer is in the lead, to becoming our next HC?

2nd question - If he is hired, will he be able to hire his own staff?

3rd and last question - who might you see as some of his assistants?

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

1. What makes you think that? Meyer nor anyone from the FO has said anything to speculate us into believing he is the front runner.

2. No. Jerry will not let him have that much power.

3. The same ones we got now, unfortunately. You really think Jerry is going to clean sweep this coaching staff and let the new HC have complete control?

 

[joe_vato]

No, no, & probably the clapper

 

[CPanther95]

Staff will be left up to Jerry and Garrett in his new role as advisor - or whatever that position was that Jerry created for Dan Reeves.

Will they put in a time clock to punch?

1. Yes, my opinion is that there is already an agreement in principle
2. I'd think so. The Joneses might suggest a coach or two to retain, but I think the final decisions will be his.
3. Strong and Addazio were fired from head coaching jobs and are conveniently available. And Chris Ash was let go by Rutgers as well, and he's already in Texas. The timing of former coaches being available is very convenient.

Damn, CP, forgot all about that. They hire him, he's does what they hired him to do and they got pissed and fired him. One of our first looks at the Booger Slight of Mouth move. Reeves made the mistake of believing what Booger was saying publicly, the BoogerSpeak.

what happened to Hudson houck?

 

[Doomsday]

I don't know, I think Jerry is making a list and checking it twice to find out which coaching hire would be nice

Make no mistake, that was a Garrett deal. Wade tried to hire yet another coach to 'help' Jason because he didn't (and never has) know how to handle the running game aspect of coordinating an offense. Garrett didn't want the help, went to Jerry, and a well-respected coach was totally disrespected and made so uncomfortable that he left.

If it is Meyer, I think there are certain concessions the Joneses will have to make regarding the staff. This is a coach with the rep for building and rebuilding teams, to not give him the lead on his own staff would be insane for those are the guys that did the heavy lifting.

What will be interesting are the ones he might keep after having the opportunity to watch them from the outside. Moore and Richard are the most interesting. And just as interesting will be if Garrett ends up in NY, which of these coaches end up there with him?

Does anyone know the coaching contract situation, do all of the contracts expire with Garrett's? I've not seen anything about terms of any coach contracts except Garrett and in case any of you are wondering, the countdown is 20 days, 3 hours, 30 minutes. Happy New Year comes early, me buckaroos.

keep moore. get rid of Richard. seems the legion of boom was about the talent, not the coaching.

1 - I think it is safe to say that, for the moment, Meyers is the leader in the clubhouse. That may be because other possible candidates are still coaching and Meyers is available to talk. If he is Jerry's first choice, there may be big picture talks in place with his representatives...but only preliminary.

2 - I heard it mentioned that if it is Meyers, he may be willing to keep some of the staff for now since he has been out of coaching for a couple of years. That will give him time to evaluate them and see how they work together. My bet would be that any name coach like Meyers will insist on dumping the DC, Richard and the ST coaches as they are an obvious area of weakness. A willingness to keep some of the staff may convince Jerry to cede authority over the coaching staff.

3 - Can't answer that. Too many factors in play. What other jobs will be open and who will those programs/teams want to target. Since colleges are coming up on early signing periods, most will want their staff in place quickly...probably before a change is made in Dallas. Some of the people he would want might be unavailable.

Meyer will probably be interviewed, but he may want some things, some control over coaches and players, that Jerry isn't willing to agree to give up.

If Meyer doesn't get everything he wants, he will not take the job, as most any other prominent coach candidate mentioned would follow suit.

It's up to Jerry's ego who Dallas actually gets.

Someone needs to hold Jerry hostage until we get Meyer or another capable HC hired.

Stephen is the one handling this. And even if he isnt. Who are you to say Jerry wont do something? The mob is at the gates right now and Jerry knows he has little time left. He did it with Parcells. Dont be surprised if he does it again.

Yeah, I saw that written on this board right after he was hired along with the same poster questioning why his present HC, and a D guy, didn't want to keep him. Now, let me see if I can just remember just who wrote that? Wait, I think it was that guy that wrote "yelling at the two players most necessary to stop the run in LA was probably not the best idea". Yep, pretty sure it was him.

It's not a fair statement to make. How can he be in the lead when there is no HC regime change being planned by the FO.

Well, going to take a lot of money to convince anyone to stay in a room with him for that long.
