peterlaw 2 Posted January 30 Anderson or Palmer seem logical. Might do Allen more harm than good to have someone totally new put a fresh set of ideas in his head or try to tweak his actions. Josh has done well to get through his mentoring period with Peterman. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boater 399 Posted January 30 33 minutes ago, The Senator said: They left out ‘quarterback whisperer’ Mike Leach! Just as well - Leach already makes more money than McDermott, and he’d want to be Head Coach anyway. . From SI: Why Is Everyone Hiring Mike Leach Disciples Instead of Actual Mike Leach? Quote Leach is rarely top of mind in these situations. He’s not devastatingly handsome. He’s not young. He has very strong opinions about weddings and live mascots and other things that aren’t third-and-nine. He may work until 2 a.m., but he also may not come in until 10 or 11 a.m. If this flavor of the month in football becomes the flavor of the year and remains en vogue, it’ll be interesting to see what happens when the coaching carousel spins again. Will the game keep seeking out some more polished, more boring version of Mike Leach, or will it seek out Actual Mike Leach? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I posted that article on the College Football board. The fact remains, and the author’s point is, instead of hiring from the Leach coaching tree, why not “go right to the wellspring?” Why not hire the “Actual Mike Leach (AML)”? . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NextYear'sTheOne 70 Posted January 30 I coach with one of Lazor's old college buddies; was even in his wedding. He seems like a pretty smart guy that I woudn't mind having at 1 BD. I wouldn't be surprised if they go after Palmer though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buddo 256 Posted January 30 Good article, and thanks for posting it Yolo. Pretty much all of the guys mentioned are either intriguing, or quite possibly genuinely worth looking at. Seems like there's a decent choice out there, going off of that piece. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real Buffalo Joe 953 Posted January 30 2 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: Should the team consider Derek Anderson as a player/coach? Assuming this is a real option, would this be an official title, or just doing what he was originally signed to do? When's the last time one of the major sports had an official player/coach?
