lolahotass Posted October 25 Report Share Posted October 25 Can't believe they didn't wait until season's end to do it... i mean, who would want to coach now knowing that you're fired.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tres-b Posted October 25 Report Share Posted October 25 Finally we are free from the Zookers clutches. He was in over his head from the start. Maybe Foley will actually conduct a real search to get a real head coach. Where would we be if he had done that 3 yrs ago?????As far as Coach Spurrier coming back, Im not sure that is what we need. He was lazy toward the end of his tenure. He didnt recruit hard and the level of talent dropped quickly. Not to say Grossman wasnt great, but Im talking about talent on the team as a whole---especially defense. If he wants to go at it 110% and bust ass a bit harder on the recruiting trail than I could be convinced. Otherwise, I say we look at all our options and go with the top guy after interviewing several candidates.What most people dont know is that Gruden wanted the job but Foley didnt want to wait until after the NFL playoffs were over for the Raiders. Foley was worried about losing a recruiting season. I would say that would have been better than losing 3 years that we will never get back. Coach Gruden is my #1 choice. He has an attitude that is infectious. Players love him and no one could out recruit him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
