Marinelli was a dinosaur when he arrived here and is now a fossil. All he did was supplant Kiffin. A pre-history plant form when he arrived. But he has stripes too, correct? 0-wins as HC for both. Kiffin was never a HC. Rod's '08 Lions are legendary alright.
Does Ron Ryan have stripes? I guess a few.
And there were zero expectations of Garrett and those staffs. Jones selected them for him with his sign off. "Can you baby sit Jason?". Then they were tweaked and tinkered with different sub coaches.
Linehan was OK here all in all. Not sure how decorated he was prior. Good coordinator creds, not special OR game changing. The guy was canned after 1 season as HC as well.
My point is that this staff was summoned by McCarthy and did not hesitate to change scenery. They see an opportunity for big, instant success. They must.
"not sure how decorated he was prior"
Hey maybe study up.
