Rode up the elevator with Brian Baker. Confirmed he's out as Cowboys DL coach. Said Leon Lett is being kept on.

That must have been one UNCOMFORTABLE elevator ride! Hey-o!

This is actually really good news. Big Cat was one of the best and if he can translate his experience into teachable skills we will have one fantastic coach. He did a great job for the Rajin Cajuns.

As long as he doesn't try to teach special teams...

Great news...

FO is being pretty coy about the coaching situation. Getting news from the elevator.

sad Cowboy fans remember Leon only for his 2 blunders, he was a great DL for us.

I don't recall reading that people "only" remember Lett for his blunders.

I remember those but I also remember him blowing though offensive lines sacking QB's.

Leon was a great player for Dallas!

It's definetely the 1st thing I think of but he was a beast.

Great players usually can't coach or be good teachers, I hope I am wrong

Not me.

And frankly not anyone who actually watched the teams back then.

He was a tremendous player. He Hamden a number of huge plays in the playoffs, had that great int of Favre.

I haven't conducted a poll on this so I can't agree with it. :

 

[Padd]

but the thing I remember most about him are his multiple drug suspensions.

I don't think Jim Harbaugh is considered a great player, I haven't seen all of his career, but only his games with colts
