Spagnuolo stays with Giants!

[redsk1]

Right now do you know who would look pretty good? Russ Grimm.

Why not? He's been in the running for a couple of teams. He would have a good staff around him. Why not? It's not going to happen but wonder why he hasn't been interviewed.

But yes, just hire Fassel and get it over with.

There is no way Grimm is going to come here with all of his assistants already picked out for him. Plus he's not going to run a west coast type of system. This whole thing is so f%*ked up.

Sounds like the Giants tore a page from Jerry Jones. Jones did the same with Garrett.

I am actually glad this happened purely for personal reasons. Dallas offered a job to Dom Capers and Capers seemed to be waiting to see what developed in Washington. If Spags had become the HC, that would have opened a D-Coordiantors job in NY. And Capers and Coughlin go WAY back. Capers surely would have been considered a replacement for Spags had Spags left NY.

Now that he stayed, I am hoping that Capers makes up his mind and comes to Dallas.

Either Fassel or Mooch would be good coaches for Washington. I would lean more towards Mooch simply because he is better at developing young QB's and Campbell could do well under Mooch.

That is unless Snyder calls Dom Capers about the head coaching job in Washington.

Sounds like the Giants might have been bidding against themselves. From what we know right now the Skins didn't offer Spagnuolo a contract.

At this point it feels a lot more like we have to take Fassel because we've got no one else. It's like P.E. in middle school where the fat kid gets picked last.

Everyone else has turned us down or withdrawn their name, or in the case of Williams just been let go.

If I were Fassel and I got selected as HC, I'd be a little pissed that after I got interviewed several weeks went by where other guys got interviewed. Makes it look like we're settling for Fassel, not enthusiastically taking him as our top choice.

Fassel has clearly been the favorite all along. He's been kept in the loop by Snyder and by all accounts he's been patient and understanding during the process.

Who has turned us down exactly other than maybe Pete Carroll, and he was a bit of a longshot anyway. Spagnoulo wasn't even offered the job.

I'm sorry I know this whole coaching search has to be torture on you guys.

But that is one of the funniest analogies I have seen.

Interestingly, JLC is reporting that Grimm was never contacted for an interview. Now, as much as we have been told that this search is about being thorough, don't you think they'd at least talk to the ex-Hog? And how bad is this search now that it's down to 2 re-treads and Meeks (who is probably the most promising). If Grimm never even gets a call, this has to be the least thorough "thorough" interview process.

Why?

If he wasn't considered to be a candidate why would they talk to him?

So far they've talked with Williams, Schwartz, Spags, Meeks, Mariucci, Carroll, and Fassel (am I missing anyone). So by not interviewing Grimm this wasn't a thorough process??

JLC reports that one of DS planes is headed to Phoenix. Why is JLC toying with the Grimm story, when we know the plane is headed to pick up Fassel for the HC announcement. I'm getting tired of JLC's speculations.

Does he deserve to be "enthusiastically taken as our top choice?" I don't think so. The guy has been out of football for a year and a half, and failed to get coordinator positions with more than one team since. He should be thrilled that anyone is even considering him as a HC candidate. No team other than the Skins has even farted in his general direction as a HC since the Ravens dumped him. I'm not saying he'll be a bad coach for us, but it has to make you wonder why he has drawn ZERO interest from the rest of the league.

SC Skins Fan,
Let this serve as your first official warning! Logic, and reason have no place here. If you would care to re-phrase your post to reflect the necessary level of unfounded panic, mindless chaos, and other.........falling sky, lemming-like behavior, perhaps an acceptable compromise can be obtained.
IF NOT.................it's question 3 for you sir!
