CC: Cowherd On Coaching Change

Submitted by brewandbluesaturdays on

FWIW - Cowherd is reporting a source close to him is telling him knows who the coach will be and we will find out this weekend. He said it's someone currently coaching a team and not someone we had heard of as a serious candidate and it's not Schiano and someone we will be very happy with. He won't give the name, as to not ruin his source.

Cant rememember if it was Scout Or Rivals rumor, I beleive it was Rivals. But, they may be right.

in history of "journalism", and we're breaking the Internet (well, MGoBlog anyway) with it!

Hey, Cowherd, Joe McCarthy called, he wants his schtick back!

That's my guess. Why not. He hasn't been mentioned, he's the genius behind the Eagles and Chip Kelley's fast-paced offense. He strongly desires another chance at a head coaching gig. His players love him. And best of all he has strong local ties. To quote a Philly.com article

"A top linebacker recruit out of Divine Child High in Dearborn, Mich., his path to Ann Arbor seemed paved. After all, he'd been born on campus when his father, an orthopedic surgeon, was studying there. His father, Joe, and his Uncle Fritz, then the Rams' defensive coordinator, grew up with Michigan coach Lloyd Carr in the Downriver suburbs south of Detroit."

 

Sure, he went to Michigan State instead but we don't want a Michigan Man, right?

Mike Tomlin who might be on shakey ground?  Best year was 2008 SB win and last two seasons were 8-8 and this year is 7-5 so far.  If he goes 8-8 again it may be adios with Steelers owner and fans getting restless.  And Cowherd stilll has close sources in Pittsburgh.

He announced his mystery candidate this morning. It was Marrone, and he had his little producer back in the studio, (Colin is in LA for Rose Bowl) and there was nothing in the envelope he sealed the candidates name in. Producer quickly grabbed a piece of paper out of view of the camera that had Marrone's name on it. Classic. On a side note:Colin is in sunny southern California, I realize they have had bad weather but he was wearing a button down shirt, sweater, jacket, and I shit you not, wool gloves. Should of photos hopped some snow in there. My first post, been lurking since Hackett did his thing in early December. Thanks to the staff and all the posters for keeping me informed and entertained through all of this.
