You just hate him because he used to be in Philly.Why McDermott? Isn't that just basically Rivera's defense?

Dantonio would be awesome, but he won't leave East Lansing.Again, probably a pointless exercise since Jerry really doesn't want a HC with the chops to actually be a good coach. I suspect Garrett is back next year anyway.
Having said that, a few names I'd consider:
Mark Dantonio
Brian Kelly
Hue Jackson
Gus Malzahn
I would gladly pull for OU to win a national championship if it would mean Garrett gets the boot. I would even bury the hatchet and advocate that he brings his QB and I hate both of them. I think I've openly been on the fire Garrett bandwagon than most and just wished I could be the one to tell him that he was fired. Anything it takes.Perhaps if Dantonio or Stoops wins the big one in college football this year, they wouldn't be bad to promote. Dantonio has been nothing short of a miracle worker at MSU, and Stoops seems like a guy who would want to try his hand in the pros.
I could live with Stoops but I'd much prefer Dantonio. I really don't want a bunch of Stoops family members picking up jobs on the staff.I would gladly pull for OU to win a national championship if it would mean Garrett gets the boot.

Listen, once Jerry gets him on the jet, tells him the story of having that credit card cut up, maybe a man in the mirror speech, salesman grin and a wink.....its a done deal.Dantonio would be awesome, but he won't leave East Lansing.
Saban had a stint in the pros and as I recall it wasn't real memorable.Saban, I think.
Saban picked the wrong QB in free agency because the medical experts he had said Drew Brees' shoulder was done. I don't think he got over that misstep. Also, Pete Carroll's first pro stint wasn't memorable.Saban had a stint in the pros and as I recall it wasn't real memorable.

I guess, but I seem to remember several eagles players at the time subtly pointing the finger in his direction when things went south. Rivera was a great DC so I tend to give him a lot of the credit for Carolina's defensive success.Coming from Jim Johnson's coaching tree is pretty solid. He got run out of Philly after being the guy that followed the guy so fat Andy could replace him with an offensive coach.
He's been doing it long enough that he deserves some credit for the last few years' defensive performance.
Yeah his defense is also nothing like Johnson's there is not much blitzing at all.I guess, but I seem to remember several eagles players at the time subtly pointing the finger in his direction when things went south.

Rivera is also a leader; McDermott doesn't strike me as one.
It is nothing like what Rivera ran at his previous stops either. So you can't say he's along for the ride.Yeah his defense is also nothing like Johnson's there is not much blitzing at all.
Holmgren is too far detached. And you forget, he was the guy who pulled the trigger on drafting Weeden in the first fucking round.I prefer, for the record, an established guy. So a Holmgren/Gruden/Payton type.
I don't give a shit. He has been more than solid his entire career. Just because he was VP of football operations when Weeden was drafted means nothing to me as far as his ability as a coach.Holmgren is too far detached.

Yeah, that kinda takes him off my fucking list.
It means a lot to me if we are in the same position the Browns were when he took over. They needed a QB. He reached for that dork. Screw the Walrus.I don't give a shit.
