One thing to remember, Hap. There are more minority candidates than it just being a black/white issue. Robert Saleh is Lebanese. Ron Rivera is Latino. Both considered "minority" HCs. That said 3 positions being filled by minority coaches is for too low. There are qualified coaches out there of many races. We have also seen progression (this year anyway) with the hiring of minority GMs. If the common think is GMs hire coaches they are comfortable with (as in Daboll with Schoen) one would think we may see a trickle down of minority coaches being hired by minority GMs. Then again, Minnesota just hired a minority GM and is rumored to be all in on Harbaugh (who he knows from their SF days)...so we shall see.

It's extremely obvious that you don't grasp the gravity of the situation. Some would take this opportunity to belittle or smack talk here. I will pass. Hopefully you have a great Wednesday!

Horrible anaolgy. Slapping secretaries isn't really on par with what is being described by Coach Flores. I believe (not 100% certain but am researching now) that what Ross is being accused of is a Federal Crime. Better anaolgy may be if your boss offered you money to rob a bank. Showed you the plans on how he wanted it done, what your payout would be and you said nothing. If you could keep that quiet and continue to work for that boss..congrats. You are now an accomplice after the fact and display zero integrity and moral value. In that case, I'm happy you are on the other side of my own thought process/values system.

Flores says he was never going to stand for it. Proceeds to coach the team for 2 years while concealing the fact that he was being offered a bribe to tank games. That's one thing that doesn't sit right with me. Understandable, guy just wanted to do his job and do forth. However at minimum, he suppressed the information while continuing to collect millions of dollars in salary from the guy that just tried to talk him into some pretty serious illegal and unethical deeds. Had he come forward to the league or media or anything public before I could get on board that he had a high character and morals. Waiting until after he gets canned just makes it look like jilted lover syndrome.

Would that mean the Browns paid extra to bypass Josh Allen for Baker Mayfield?

I thought the name Red Hogs was a no brainer. Pays tribute to the players of the past. Keeps the same traditions (the song Hail to the Redskins is easily now sung "Hail to the Red Hogs). Even the #HTTR stays the same. Merchandise would be pretty cool. Stuffed hogs, the old piggie noses ect. I said months ago that if they picked another name they were idiots. I forgot to factor in that Dan Snyder is in fact, an idiot. My bad.

Well, being it's 100% speculation because I wasn't in the room I am raising plausible things that could be in play. Aside from repeating what I say and making a snide remark can you offer any proof my ideas are so ludicrous? Were you in the room? No? Do you have anything of value or intelligence to add? Again no? Sit down, pup. Grown ups are talking.

What happens if the Giants settle on Daboll and Miami swoops in amd offers him an offer he can't refuse? Now they lost their choice. Always good too have 2nd or even 3rd fall back options.

Agree.

Actually according to Flores's suit...BB congratulationed Daboll's win before Flores had a SECOND interview. Means he alread would have had to have a 1st interview ..correct? Possible after the 1st interview the Giants weren't all too impressed and knew Daboll was the guy. Would mean he had a chance IMO

Adam Gase did most recently unless I'm forgetting someone. Gase can't hold a candle to Flores.🤷🏻‍♂️

If that's the take away you had from that game....whoa Nelly.

Agree. Daboll didn't make a successful game time strategy that game. And it did happen a few times...not just against Jacksonville. Good point.

What if the Giants wanted Daboll and he...I don't know...did something unexpected like took the Miami job instead? Would leave the Giants in a real pickle. What if the current Giants DC got the Minnesota HC job (he was interviewed). Now you have interviewed Flores as a possible fall back option. You have a list of guys you interviewed and can press on. Seems like due diligence and being prepared to me.

We were referencing the Jacksonville game.

Wouldn't that mean Daboll was in over his head? McD's defense actually played pretty solid.

Yea. However the issue shouldn't just be a black/white issue. That's an issue in and of itself.

Head to head as candidates...the offense run by Daboll frequently B smacked Flores's defenses. Not everything is cut and dry.

And 1 Hispanic. And 1 Lebanese. Not that 3 of 32 is dramatically better...but minority means more than just black.

Whoops, wrong kind of "law suit".

He golfed plenty.

Yea, I kinda have to believe that the kind of coaches that would be driven off are the ones not producing. I've worked plenty of places where everyone gets along with the boss until their boss makes them work harder.

He may succeed. He may end up Freddie Kitchens 2.0. Either way at the time McD wasn't wrong to say publicly they needed more balance. They absolutely did. And may bet would be he had said it to Daboll on private a time or two as well before that.

Fair point. NCAA has lower morals than anywhere else😂

College isn't bringing him in. If he interviews and doesn't get it I wouldn't risk the lawsuit if I was the AD.
