This is ridiculous (Interviewing Thomas Brown)

[canesz06]

With this ownership, this team is doomed.

Nothing wrong with doing your due diligence.

If Ross and Grier were considering firing Flores during the season as reported then they must have had some solid idea on who they would be hiring.
Some said if Harbaugh lost to Ohio State again he would 100% would be coming to Miami.
But who knows now. Harbaugh has to know its much better to stay in college. He is not a fool.

Well did anyone hear of Mike Tomlin before he rose up the coaching ranks? I certainly didn’t.

 

[Despacio]

Eh. I mean it’s increasingly clear Miami didn’t have someone in mind lined up once they made the decision to fire Flores. It if the environment was that toxic you had to move on from Flores. And I that case them casting a wide net of candidates is what you want in a head coach search.

Difference is Tomlin went to a team with a clue.

For every Mike Tomlin, there's a million Leslie Frazier's

 

[Durango2020]

Let's not panic until the candidate is chosen. Hopefully they're not ranking them on how hard they kiss Ross' ass.

I agree but they are considering hiring a running backs coach as the head coach? At this point, I think Ross is just f*ckin with us

Doomed? Why are people jumping to conclusion? It says request to interview, not hire. What's wrong with lining up young, up and coming assistants with veteran head coaches to interview? Calm down.

Personally, I prefer to hire a retread HC with a rolodex. Someone more offensive minded this time around.

I just feel there should be no reason to be interviewing a RB coach. We've been hiring assistants for almost 20 years and every one of them have failed miserably

 

[Michigan Mike]

I see nothing wrong with casting a wide net, especially when some in that net have a job title of assistant head coach for a decent team.

But I guess it is more fun to dump on every tidbit that comes out about the team.

A clue…plus a top quarterback already in place…plus one of the best front offices in the league.

True, I understand, but there has been success recently with first time head coaches, just to name a few, Zac Taylor, Jeff Klingsbury, Sean McDermott, and Sean McVay. It doesn't hurt for them to do their due diligence because you never know how these candidates will interview until you meet them. All I'm saying is let it play out before yelling the sky is falling.

And for the record, for those who did not read my previous post, I do prefer hiring a veteran head coach with an extensive rolodex this time around.
