I mean, just b/c they have connections doesn't mean they are bad. To me, Barry was an unknown that didn't seem to have people banging on his door, couple that with his Detroit experience and the ties with BA from Tampa, well it makes me nervous.

To me, the key is can he scheme for what we have and develop players through his position coaches.

As others have said, this is on Jay. I think he gets this year and he probably knows it. If he and Barry don't show improvement on the field, then McC hires a new coach next year (warning: McC's replacement for Mike Nolan was Mike Singletary - not exactly a HOF coaching candidate).

Crossing my fingers, will wait and see, but just not getting my hopes up.

A positive I see in Barry is his track record in San Diego in developing young players, which will be needed here. As you said, we'll see how he schemes and whether he'll have enough talent to make a decent improvement.

I think it is a bit funny that it seems that Fangio would have been a Snyder/Allen hire (from the looks of it); whereas Barry seems more of a Allen/Gruden (I think more Gruden) hire. I know people here were stating that the team needs to let Gruden hire his coaches (McC said the same thing).
