NFL Coaching Rumors and Moves

[mooby]

I agree with the sentiment that what the Dolphins did is cheap and greedy. How are you going to look for a new head coach with a current head coach under contract, and then decide to go with the current head coach when none of the flashier names pan out? That's just a cheap move Stephen Ross. And it's extremely disrespectful to the current head coach in place. I know Sparano hasn't wowed anybody since his first season at the helm, but if you are going to look for a new head coach, you need to do the right thing and let your current coach go. Don't be like, oh we can't find a better one, so we're just going to stick with you. I'd be pissed if I was Sparano, but it's not like he can quit because then he'll lose his salary and I doubt he wants that.

Didn't we do the same thing?

Yes we did. The difference is that we ended up changing coaches. The Fins have not. Instead, they have neutered Sparano of any power in the organization and he now is a football eunuch.

We didn't really do the same thing. We didn't offer multi-million dollar deals to multiple people while still employing our head coach

Wasn't it you that told us the story about how Snyder asked Pat Bowlen about Shanahan right in front of Zorn at an owners meeting?

I feel like there's a big difference between actively going out and looking for a new coach, and one owner joking around with another owner about that owners' current head coach, like Snyder did with Bowlen at the owners meetings.

Umm, so is Harbaugh staying at Stanford now?

[Shadowbyte]

Ha ha, now KNBR is reporting that the 49ers and Jim will have a deal done by tonight lol. Now this is a circus.

[Ruhskins]

Tug of war between the 49ers and Stanford, this is crazy and interesting.

Unbelievable how the Dolphins have left Sparano twisting in the wind.

Now there's this

Yeah, extended through 2013 and with more personnel power, though Ireland will hold final say as before.
