News: PFT: After Stanford interview, Jason Garrett says he'll stay at NBC

[Stash]

Good move on Jason’s part, who needs a coaches 60hr workweek. Stay at NBC for nice cash and much more free time to enjoy life. Does it get any better than that?!

A TV gig is where it’s at. The most money for the least work. Tons of former players and coaches would be lining up for a job like that if he left. Credit to Garrett fur knowing how good he has it.

I can just imagine what Stanford's transfer portal will look like next week.

Transferring in or out?
Please clarify.

Plus he is set for life what he got from Jerry for 10 years. Now it is easy sailing.
Just like Tony Romo, has an easy gig, not getting injured and can spend a lot of time with his family as well. No coaching hours, same for Troy.

They do put in time for travel, interviewing players and coaches, preparation for games. But not like coaching hours.

So… He didn’t get the Stanford job in other words lol

No, Garrett would only take the job if @Ranching would come out of retirement and take the job as his offensive & defensive & special teams coordinator(s).

They must have told him he had to win.

Terrible news, the only thing that makes Sunday nights worse than he does is Monday mornings.

..Ha!.. I just cringe when CBS posts his Sunday Night mug. All I can think is, "Its all a process".

 

[TexasHillbilly]

Maybe he wants to return to the NFL??

maybe he wants to return to coaching in general. Not the nfl but at least college.

 

[links18]

What does NBC think about that?

 

[CoachD]

One of the worst coaches in Cowboys history but I'll give him credit he somehow avoided being fired a lot longer than most coaches would of. As a matter of fact, even when he got fired he didn't think that he was fired as he continued to show up at the Cowboy's facilities after being terminated.

After Stanford interview, Jason Garrett says he'll stay at NBC . Headline should read - Stanford makes big mistake , tells Carrot Clapper to take a hike .

 

[Captain-Crash]

I can't believe he turned down the opportunity to be the janitor at Stanford. dang.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Holding out for the next NFL gig. lol

A snippet of the interview.....

Stanford: Outline your plans to make us competitive.
Garrett: Well, it's a process.
Stanford: Can you define the meaning of process in this context?
Garrett: That's funny, no one has ever asked me that specific question before.
Stanford: We're very interested in your interpretation.
Garrett: Well, there's this Mason jar and this flea that bumps his head.
Stanford: Enjoy your trip home.

Garrett is such a class act. Reminds me of the class this organization had in Landry era. Wish we could have found room for him in the front office . But those positions are all filled.

 

[Vinnie2u]

He should get into politics...

[Buzzbait]

I think the whole thing came down to who was more willing to accept mediocrity, Stanford or NBC?
Now we know.

It's pretty obvious. You don't say your not interested in coaching for them within a day. Stanford said, nice talking to y6ou but we are going with another canidate.
