Mike McCarthy didn’t garner the interest from Saints that he anticipated and taking a year off; McCarthy backs out as a result of Moore being in lead (2 Viewers)

It looks like McCarthy may have gotten word that Kellen Moore is likely to become the Saints HC

 

[RaginSaint93]

Kellen Moore come on down!!!

 

[soggymoss84]

He has been told Saints are hiring Moore

 

[No2DC]

What day is this now? Day 23?

 

[cdogg]

If MM pulled out, it’s because we are hiring Moore.

 

[DeuceMcAllisterFan]

This was expected as McCarthy was a fallback plan. The picture is clear now.

 

[TenTwo]

Oh that’s weird. I would have never guessed…

 

[Chuck McGill Esq.]

From this Rap tweet it looks like an offer was made by Saints and they are awaiting a decision.

I’ll bet Loomis was being cheap with Gale Benson’s money when it came to hiring McCarthy. He also probably has some coaches that he is loyal to and thinks he can get Moore to retain,

We were able to turn down a superbowl winning coach with a career .600 record. Who would’ve thought?

Welcome to the WhoDat Nation Coach Moore!

He has been told Saints are hiring Moore

Has he been told that?

 

[soggymoss84]

Has he been told that?

The writing is on the wall.

Every major reporter has come out in the last hour speaking about Moore to Saints and how he’s the front runner but he’s in the Super Bowl so nothing can be official.

Kingsberry was likely told the same earlier today and they “withdraw” to make it seem like they weren’t interested

 

[SaintBudMan]

I wonder if we possibly have an agreement with Moore after our visit and we let Kingsbury and McCarthy know today. Both dropped out today. Did we allow them to save face and drop out on their own before announcing our plan to go with Moore?

I understand the sentiment, but I haven't seen or read that.
