Cynical Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Uh oh...this means Ralph is gonna have some competition for... Mike Leach How can Ralph be in the competition for something he does not want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrudginglyPessimistic Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Not surprising since he pretty clearly demonstrated he was not up to NFL level OC work with the Bills. Him getting at least a lateral transfer (if not promotion) to college HC seemed kinda weird. For Bills fans just further evidence that one has to wonder what GW was thinking when he gave the O car keys to Kragthorpe who was so ineffective, GW had to can him when he had contract left (a situation which Mr. Ralph tends to avoid like the plague). In the end it looked like it was bizarrely mission accomplished for TD who seemed to hire a DC wunderkind as HC with the goals of not simply winning but making sure an HC he hired did no run him out of town like Cohwer did in Pitts. TD seemed to set GW up to fail by allowing him to hire a bunch of not ready for PT offensive guys when this was clearly GW's big weakness. TD never managed his HC to win and Mr. Ralph never managed his GM to balance his failings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jokeman Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Kragthorpe was the QB coach and not the OC. Last I checked we were missing a QB coach, last I checked Kragthorpe has a history with Brian Brohm, Hmmm we might want to consider calling Steve and see if he wants to return to the NFL.
