Underhill: Saints are interviewing probably 12-13 coaches for Head Coach position [ Tracker: 8 scheduled interviews] (209 Viewers)

[SonOfNOLA]

Something to keep in mind to try to not overreact to every report. Every interviewee in the search isn’t meant to be a big name or slam dunk candidate. A wide open search will have supposed underwhelming candidates to have a legitimate process. That can allow them to select the best hire after gathering as much information as possible.

***MOD EDIT*** (to add list so we don’t have to search the entire thread for a list on page 8)

1. Saints STC/IHC Darren Rizzi
2. Bills OC Joe Brady
3. Eagles OC Kellen Moore
4. Dolphins DC Anthony Weaver
5. Lions DC Aaron Glenn
6. Giants AHC/OC Mike Kafka

Looks like Mickey read the Tony Pauline article and gave Nick some “scoop” to turn the heat down.

12 sounds like an Art Vandalay number.

Plot twist: all 12 candidates are currently on the Saints coaching staff.

Yea. But I’ve just come to terms with Gayle won’t fire him. So is what it is. Mediocrity

Narrative control.

Where’s Spencer Rattler at, or are the Jon Gruden rumors true?

 

[Mamba]

Overreacting is one thing. But I also think it’s okay for fans to have (and express) displeasure for particular candidates.

 

[No2DC]

I have no faith in the process as long as Mr. Status Quo, AKA Mick, is guiding it.

Haener trained with Gruden in the offseason so everyone in the pic has a connection to Gruden. No need to go down that rabbit hole.

Even if Loomis already has a handshake deal with his choice for head coach, he is still going to interview a dozen candidates. Any GM must make it look like it was a legitimate search for the best coach available. I’d be surprised if the new door plaque for the head coach office isn’t already engraved.

Hmmmm, kinda looks that way doesn’t it.
