David Shaw turns down 49ers

Submitted by 1464 on
Title says most of it. San Fran paper reports David Shaw was high on the list for the 49ers. He didn't even interview with them like they expected. Reap what you sow?

I would have been more shocked if he actually did interview with them.  What a train wreck out there.  The way ownership has handled things it is not going to be a quick fix.  Anything would be an upgrade from Tomsula but they will be lucky to even get a decent stop gap in the short term.

From the sounds of it, York put his name out there when Shaw had zero interest at all.  Dude is an idiot who has no idea how to run an NFL team.

Stanford is fast becoming quite a cradle of coaches but I did not know that James Joseph Harbaugh is the second Stanford head coach to become HC at the University of Michigan.

When college coaches at above average but not top flight programs are turning down NFL head coaching positions.  I believe college football is more prominent and popular then the NFL and situations like these are pleasing.  Not everyone is willing to jump to NFL.

Now that LA will be getting two teams I think each owner gets a share of 1 billion dollars or something like that.  There is no loyalty in NFL now, owners will cut a coach with 3 years left on his contract and not even bat an eye...they will eat whatever money...they make it back so fast.

All/most of the owners are jsut complete morons

I'm wondering if Harbaugh had a side convo with Shaw and told him to not go work for that asshat.

York brought this all on himself. He ran a big time winner out of town so he could get his yes man, and opted to fire that yes man after only one season.

What good coach in their right mind will want to work for a franchise where you're given a leash of only one season to work with?

..I'm looking to see what the sage and seer, soothsayer and sage Tim Kawakami is reporting on this. The latest two names are Hue Jackson and/or Chip Kelly. At least in this case, we actually know those two gentlemen prefer the pro game. But I remember the warning of a real sage: "be not deceived. "

Les Miles has openly campained for the job, but would not publicly state that he is interested.  Factions within the York family would have to do an about face for this to happen.  I also have heard that David Cutcliffe has turned down the job.  My bet is that they wind up with...Greg Schiano

You know you've really screwed up as an NFL owner when a college coach that's being paid less than what you would pay AND wouldn't even have to re-locate turns down an interview with you.

is unemployed if you don't count his job suing Penn State and the NCAA and peddling 409 trinkets.

I'm thinking if Jay got the job we'd have another fun year of dumpster fires.

They're going to have a rough time finding someone to take that job. If you can have success there and still be treated the way Harbaugh was, then why on earth would you bother? Especially if you're a quality coach with options. They'll find somebody, but, unless they get really lucky, it's going to be a downgrade from Harbaugh.
