Worrying about an assistant getting poached before you even hire him and using it as a potential reason to not hire him is insanely stupid.

The only way anybody would get poached is if he's successful. "Can't have that. Let's try to be mediocre instead so we can keep everybody."

Just dumb.

I could roll with that.

I've always thought Carroll was a damn good coach.
Carroll is close to a best case scenario. He will have a hard time finding another job because of his age so he will be more apt to deal with Jerry's bullshit and try to make it work here. Saleh or Eberflus would both be fine as defensive coordinators.

I disagree with the personality. I actually think he would be a great motivator and leader. I just think the lack of experience would be way too steep. To jump from highschool to the NFL just seems ludicrous to me. On top of that he hasn't even been coaching highschool that long. He is the type that needs at least an NFL assistant job to get some seasoning and experience around other NFL coaching quality people. And maybe that's the path he is headed. Or hell he seems like he would be a good candidate for a college coaching position.

A bunch of voicemails left on Norv turner and Wannstedt’s house line.

Just getting the two Rooney Rules out of the way, since Deion's wasn't a real interview.

He's not their DC, just an associate HC or some such. Not sure what the rules are with that but it might be considered a promotion if he's the DC.
I thought only a coordinator could have the title of “Assistant Head Coach “ and were safe from poaching unless they were being hired as an HC. I’m probably wrong.
