Jones is offering something but not a coaching contract. Other than that it could be some cleanup over what Garrett may feel he is owed still. I don’t know but it will all come out in the wash.
I mean if he was keeping Garrett, we would see a new contract. If he was moving to the front office why wait on that either?

You dont know anymore than any of us do. He could very well be deciding on whether to bring him back as a HC.

Even if Jerry intends to give Garrett a front office job, dragging this out makes no sense at all to me. What's so complicated about moving him in to his new position and moving on with the HC search?
If that's what he wants to do, just do it

Garrett is gone. Whether its tomorrow or the next day. It doesn't matter. Jerry has his eye on a few guys, either in college or NFL and those guys already know he does.

Booze knows I've always been a homer and I believe Jerry's going to nail this hire.

He has had most of the season to make that determination.

That doesnt mean he isnt being stubborn. They also had all season to sign Dak. That doesnt mean they dont want him either.

You think Dak is that borderline?

Yes. I know some of you are panicking, but nothing has changed.

Ok then, humor me.

Why do you suppose that this is being drawn out this way?

The non-disclosure agreement.

Garrett could make millions writing a behind-the-scenes book.

Who cares about Zeke-banging-her-and-her. This would be the first book about Jerruh and the family.

At first, I thought they were milking it for publicity but this would be overindulgent even for JJ. I'm starting to worry that whoever they've reached out to for interviews have declined or given a lukewarm response to working in big D under the current organizational structure.

I hope Aikman’s recent bashing of the organization and the way it’s run has scared away any big name coach.

If Jerry has to pick from the second or third tier in order to get a coach desperate enough to deal with the circus, maybe that’ll at least pressure him into making some concessions and changing finally.

its been said multiple times:

publicity

dragging this out keeps everybody worked up and talking about the Cowboys, this thread is a perfect example

waiting til the 14th when Garretts contract officially expires keeps jeri from having to officially fire Garrett and the Cowboys gets piles of daily publicity along the way

Now this would be some funny shit.

I don't fancy Garrett as some sort of talent guru.

Yes, his father was a scout and shit but he sucked at times too.

For everytime he nailed a layup like Randy Moss, he had a complete turd like Todd Lowber.

I am not particularly married to McClay, but I fail to see how keeping Red Pube would make us better in personnel matters.

My best guess is because Jerry is a moron and attention whore. And he's probably trying to get him in the front office. He also probably doesn't want to pay him his final two weeks paycheck or whatever is left.

How many times does this have to be said? I know I've said it myself at least a half dozen times. Jerry is an attention whore. He loves dragging things out for the attention. He likes announcing things when no other team does. It's what he does. It's what he has done in the past. It's what he's always done. It's what he'll always do.
