IRVING, Texas -- Five Wonders is ready for its offseason debut. In the offseason the Wonders will be an intermittent offering, unlike the regular season where it appears every week and unlike the players does not get the benefit of a bye week. With no further ado, away we go: I wonder if this is the week we find out what happens with assistant head coach/defense Monte Kiffin. While the rest of the coaching staff was locked up, Kiffin wasn't.

I wonder as I wonder. Or is it, I wander as I wonder. Or is it I wonder as I wander?

You do wonder why Kiffin is being given such little respect around the NFL now. Man is a legend and an icon.

He is 75.

I thought the Cowboys would offer to keep him as a consultant just because of his friendship with Marineli.

What does age have to do with it unless he is suffering dementia? Marinelli isn't young either

There is a big range between dementia and being 100%.

There was a serious story here locally in Dallas that he fell asleep in the booth last season. Others say it was not the booth but just a meeting or meetings.

It's not the kind of story that the Cowboys insider types will go on record with in terms of publishing it, but when questioned on local sports talk radio they basically acknowledged that something like that happened.

There's still no reason that he can't be a consultant but he probably won't get paid much to be one. He would likely just do it because he's bored.

I originally thought that Marinelli might push Jerry to keep Kiffin as part of Marinelli returning.

I guess negotiations on a new contract will commence between Kiffin and Jones when he wakes up.
