Marrone

[inkfreq]

I don't get it.

He quit in Buffalo. His former players universally hate him. He's not a winning coach anywhere. He's the assistant head coach in Jacksonville, and they haven't exactly made leaps and bounds getting better.

Yet the guy has had FOUR interviews as a head coach so far this last week.

Why?

Lovie Smith was a winning coach when he left Chicago. Respected by his players. Respected by his peers. Spent a year out of football before he got called for an interview, and he would have made a hell of a Rooney Rule interview if nothing else.

But Doug fucking Marrone gets four interviews in a week? The world has gone insane.

It's wacky. That's one guy I don't want anywhere near here, rather have Caldwell.

Here's an article written a few months ago that's pro-Marrone. Might help explain why some of these teams are interested in hiring the guy.
