The Training Wheels of the NFL
Well, when you have a GM with scant experience and no record of excellence, I guess it should not be a suprise that he hires a coach with no experience and no record of excellence, who then hires an offensive coordinator with no experience and no record of excellence, and a defensive coordinator with no expereice and no record of excellence.You know what I really love? After each person is hired, the deciding factor seems to be the comfort level of the person doing the hiring. Forget about finding the best person for the job, lets get someone who will kiss my ass, agree with me about everything, and not challenge my authority.
If there is any upside here (and there isn't), it's that we'll know where to point the finger(s) for this disaster.
Maybe it will all work out in a few years, ...Thompson could be fired after three more years of wins in the low single digits, and we could hire Charlie Weiss who might be ready to leave Notre Dame by then.
Hey, I'm a "glass half full" type of guy.
