LOL. I simply see Gibbs as our top option, thus far. He's a quality coach. He was well respected by the organization while in Dallas.zeromaster;1348910 said:Conjecture:
Some because he coached here.
Some because he coached at OU and did reasonably well (maybe not for the alumni).
Some because he's seen (by them) as an improvement over Wade, Norv, Jed, on-staff coaches that have interviewed, etc.
Some because they're named Philo.
It's all somewhat of a dice roll, with Jones as both dealer and stickman.
All great points.Chocolate Lab;1348927 said:Sure, the offense was better, but it had tons more talent, too. Gibbs did a lot with little talent. That's good coaching.
That said, Gibbs probably has as much chance at getting the job as any of us do.
