Sherman Smith ... Still Deciding
More from Jason Reid:

Just got off the phone with Sherman Smith, who still is trying to decide whether to accept the Redskins' offer to become their offensive coordinator. Smith, the Tennessee Titans' assistant head coach-offense, told me he's heard a lot of good things about the organization and hopes to make a decision today.

Smith and new coach Jim Zorn are former teammates and close friends. Smith said many of his friends in coaching believe joining the Redskins would be the best move for him at this point of his career, but Smith is happy in Nashville and the Titans have been good to him.

I've heard that Smith is a really good guy and he came across as a straight shooter in our initial conversation. Smith was trying to get in touch with Zorn to ask a few more questions before speaking with Titans Coach Jeff Fisher. Smith sure sounded like someone who was about to change jobs.

Don't know if he is going to sign here. But I just thought in light of all the "Spagnuolo was told not be part of this mess" rhetoric it would be worth mentioning some positive opinions about being a coach here.
