    I get the sentiment, but there really is no reason to rush the decision unless the choice is Harbough. Ryans and Morris are not finalists for any other jobs. O’Connell has some interest from the Texans and Jaguars, but has not had an initial interview with the Jaguars and has not had a 2nd with...

    If the Vikings want O’ Connell they will get him. They are doing their 2nd interview with him today. Since the Jaguars just decided to put in a request to interview him they will have to wait until after the Super Bowl. You gotta think the Vikings make their hire by that point.

    Looks like the Vikings have their three finalists for the HC job and Harbough is still a possibility as well. It will be interesting to see how things play out.

    Will the Gophers have a 2022 NFL Draft bonanza?

    Agreed, I think he will test well too. My guess would be 4th round.

    I had thought so in the past, but it seems Harbaugh is not alone in having issues with Baalke. Baalke is the GM of the Jaguars now and they are in the market for a new head coach. Their preferred candidate, Byron Leftwhich, refused to take the job unless the Jaguars fired Baalke and appointed a...

    He was connected to Denever this past off-season and it was rumored that it was one of the couple of teams he would prefer to be traded to along with the Raiders and 49ers. Also his fiancé lives in Boulder so some speculated that as a connection as well. With Hackett there now, I would bet that...

    I had heard that rumor, but I don’t buy it. They hadn’t completed a 2nd interview with him and thus I doubt they had an offer on the table. Kwesi’s contract is reported to be 12 Mil over 4 years. That’s really good pay for a first time GM and I doubt their offer to Poles would have been much...

    Trill Carter

    It would be really weird timing to enter the portal as he should be in line for significant playing time this year. Who knows though, the post is pretty vague.

    I think it says something that he was going to be the first interviewed out of the two. Either the Vikings were more interested in Kwesi or Poles was more interested in the Bears. They had to know there was a decent chance that Poles would get hired by the bears if things went well.

    Hard to say, I have seen conflicting reports from different “sources”. It’s hard to give much credence to any of them.

    I don’t think Saleh was truly benefited by the Rooney Rule, more likely it was the “Mcvay Effect”. He was a good coordinator, but there is no doubt that since McVay there is a trend by many teams to look at and hire younger coaches that would not have been seriously considered in the past. It’s...

    Saw a report. Rossi to Oklahoma state???

    Per On3 Sports Auburn defensive coordinator Derek Mason is set to move to Oklahoma St and Auburn linebackers coach/assistant head coach Jeff Schmedding is set to be promoted to defensive coordinator at Auburn. Seems like we can put the Rossi rumors to rest for now.

    Freshman Most Likely to Contribute?

    I think Schuster has got a shot as they mention him a lot and there are a lot of spots in the d-line rotation up for grabs. I would guess Deven Eastern could be another RS Freshman that could break into the rotation. I would also think Jameson Geers (RS FR) will get some playing time on offense.

    I think a listened to the same podcast, or one that made a similar point. The basic argument, as I recall, is that when a coach is hired during the process does not affect results. So a coach hired within the first couple of weeks would have about the same chance of success statistically as one...

    Agreed on that. Hopefully they have been vetting some candidates so they can make a quick move after the season is over.

    I heard them talking about it, but I doubt 8 million would make much of a difference to the Wilfs. Zygi has a net worth of 1.3 billion and just donated 5 million to his alma mater. I don’t think the money/contract would be an issue.
