League insiders tells Tony Pauline that Aaron Glenn will end up being Saints Head Coach [Edit: Underhill says no decision is close to being made] (3 Viewers)

This is my attitude on this as well. People are stressing themselves out and getting all angry behind things others are saying the man MAY do.

Reading comprehension is a lost art.

For Loomis, nepotism overrides results. That guy needs to go

LOL.

"would be open to keeping the coaches Loomis wants retained..."

I don't know who is reporting this, but if true.. the cringe continues. Head coaches are allowed full autonomy in selecting their staff.

IF this is true, and that is a big if.....

Loomis needs to go yesterday......

I look at Loomis in a completely different light after his gum smacking press conference last year. He’s hell bent on showing that he’s at least half if not most of the reason for the Saints’ success the past two decades. When in reality Sean Payton and Drew Brees made up most of the pie.

The reality is as a fanbase we don’t need some reporter telling us what will happen. All we need to do is look at what has happened recently. Loomis wants familiarity and has already interviewed Glenn for the HC position. The Saints have to interview a minority candidate again due to the Rooney rule which means it’s a given Glenn will get another interview for the HC position. I would be shocked if it isn’t Aaron Glenn at this point. I would rather Flores if we’re going defensive minded head coach.

The previous hiring cycle was about maintaining what Payton had built. They (wrongly) thought the train would just keep moving. The desire for familiarity dos not have to mean that they are looking to keep the status quo. Aaron Glenn is not Dennis Allen. All of this talk of ego and whatnot is just more fan board psychologist nonsense.

Ummmmm……well, I’m a fan of Glenn, and wouldn’t be opposed to the hire.
However, it was reported that ML will hire someone he “knows”, along with the other report of Glenn having the inside track. Sure, Glenn and DA are two different people, although making a hire based on replicating the same formula of success, is a product of status quo. You don’t have to have the same individuals for something to be status quo. It’s more of the system and process, that lends credence to it.

Plus, if other potential candidates get the feeling that Glenn will ultimately be the hire, then why should they even care to interview with us, or take us seriously????
These reports, whether true or not, is doing more harm than good. We could be missing out on other great hires

I like the interview. He’s on my short list. Think he got screwed over in Chicago.

"Expect," "Could," "Might." None of these are reports, per se, as much as they are speculation. People really need to learn what words mean.

Im not trying to defend Loomis here at all (I'm ready for a full reset top to bottom myself) but why do we all of a sudden think Loomis is some kind of control freak who needs a “yes man” to be his next head coach? Loomis himself was quite literally Sean Payton’s “yes man” for years. I know he’s mentioned continuity on several occasions, but I honestly don’t believe that’s still a deciding factor on our next head coach. Even Loomis has to realize that didn’t work at this point.

The reality is, no matter who is hired as the next head coach, they are inheriting a team in salary cap hell. May as well hire someone who thinks they can win with what you have, because you don’t have the cap flexibility for a reset. Then after two years when the cap is right, you can reset with another new staff if needed.

 

[Lustmord]

Yuck

 

[sammymvpknight]

I think that the next Saints HC is a lame duck anyway…so whatever. This is what Loomis has created…complete apathy and hopelessness.
