BP as Team Consultant?

[Senny]

Who here would like to see Bill Parcells stay on with the Cowboys, as a team consultant or something like that, after he retires from coaching? I would, help out Jerry Jones with the draft and free agency..etc.

I wouldn't mind that at all but not sure BP would be ecstatic with the idea since he has a residence in NY ready to move into plus he can go to the horse track everyday! I could see him as a consultant for the draft in Big D for a few month's prior to the draft but then return to NY where he would be available for further consulting by phone!

No Thanks....when he retires, he needs to get the hell out of Dallas. You can't have a former coach looking over the shoulder of the new regime. It usually doesn't work.

Parcells serves a purpose...but after he leaves, we need to hire a younger, more innovative offensive coach who will bring a different tone and approach, a new vitality. That's not a dig at Parcells, but the team will by then be ready for a breath of fresh air and a coaching staff that can get them over the final hump.

 

[Senny]

I agree, after bill parcells we definately need a new coach...but I was talking more about a draft - talent evaluator...this is a hypothetical question, like i doubt parcells would want to do even do this, im saying if he wanted to...he would have input with the new coach...just fa's and draftees...jones/new coach would go to BP whenever they thought necessary.

If BP can't get a single freakin' playoff win in 4 years at Dallas, it's time for him to go.

No way that the new coach would sign on knowing that BP stlil has some control in the team unless he is a Campo type.

I think the Campo type coaches of the Dallas Cowboys is over....at least I hope so. JJ learned his lesson and it'll be VERY interesting to see who the next coach is.

If BP had a hand in hiring teh next coach then I could see it. If not, buh bye.

I think Jeff Ireland can handle it, that's the reason he was conducting a large part of the draft last year, and is going to even more of this year's, and IMO, once Bill calls it quits, that's it

Absolutely not, BP does not have the right personality to be a productive consultant working with our new coaching staff.....BP has to run everything! I do not believe even BP would enjoy doing it.......IMO

:jerk:

we aren't talking about consulting the team on gameday you nutjob, just helping evaluate talent, which he's very good at, even you can admit that...well maybe that's asking too much

c'mon, be fair, he allowed jeff Ireland and Jerry Jones alot of leeway last year

I hope you're right, Jim.

But I'm not sure. Jerry may think that he gained so much knowledge working with Parcells that he'll figure he can handle everything from here on out and get by with a low-key, low-paid, low-charisma coach who dances to the puppet strings. Perhaps, after feeling somewhat stifled for the past few years, he'll be ready to stretch his GM muscles.

What it will be is fun to watch.

 

[Hostile]

I honestly don't want him anywhere near the team after he retires. I think of similar situations and I can't help but think of Bill Walsh in San Francisco. Now we're going to see something similar with Levy in Buffalo.

Stay involved, fine. Not interested in him as a consultant though. That's too much like looking over the replacement's shoulder and setting him for failure.

For all his "genius" I feel Walsh has hindered the coaching process in San Fran

Yeah, I can see it now. JJ, I like this OT in the 2nd round...sure he's got an injury history but he looks good. Now how about a guard in the 3rd...

ray2: relegate powers on draft day to Jeff Ireland, relegate powers on draft day to Jeff Ireland ray2:

I don't think Bill would want the consulting job in the first place. He would make the head coach miserable. Stephen Jones & Ireland can handle personnel.

When Big Bill quits, I would love to get a younger coach in for a long tenure like Landry did, but I think that era has passed. Cowher and Fisher are two of the senior coaches in the league but are the exception to the rule. I like Fisher a lot. Classy. Hard nosed. No excuses. I wish Dallas could pull him away from Tennessee.
