Starting to hear rumors in TN
-
Kirk Ferentz at Iowa is still my guy. He is 60 from Royal Oak MI. If we want to run the ball watch Iowa's OL after losing Scherff. Ferentz was a Asst. Coach at Cleveland & Baltimore was than wanted in Shitsburg. Here's the issue:: He is the highest paid state employee in Iowa & under contract till 2020 at a mere 3.775/yr. plus bonuses. Does he want to challenge himself at football at the highest level with ageing? If I were Haslem's dollars at end of Iowa's season, I hear Iowa serves 1 hell of a steak dinner to talk to Ferentz..

That's correct, tia. This offense the last two years has been an absolute beauty, and he's done it with two different pretty mediocre quarterbacks. Defensively, he obviously has a bunch of elite players, but he's had very few, if any, elite pass rushers, and he runs a 3-4. Fits exactly what we have now. He's also a DBs coach, as Pettine hilariously pretends to be. You want to fix the run D? Hire the guy that held Fournette under 35 yards on 20 carries.

....says the Southern boy.
This would be a great hire. Pete Carroll flamed out in the NFL, went back to college, came back with a tweaked plan, and won a Super Bowl.

You know I'm only here to stir the pot.

Last night,, Vince himself came to me in a dream and told me that this is all wishfull thinking. Stay the course!.....lol

We get this speculation literally every time we are looking for a coach. Cowher, Saban, Dungy, Gruden, etc. - seen at a local coffee shop, meeting the owner, meeting the GM, seen with X and Y.
....Then we hire Crennel,Shurmur,Chudzinski,Pettine, (maybe next year there'll be another name)

I can't IMAGINE Saban leaving Alabama. He literally has created a football powerhouse, and they'll be good forever.

Starting to hear on local radio down in Nashville that Haslam is in love with Nick Saban. They had dinner together Sunday night. The talk is he would give Saban full control of the Browns. Just think Saban coming back to Cleveland. He was defensive coordinator for before the old browns moved. Then he went to Michigan State as a Head Coach. I think this would be awesome.

I cant find one drop of anything to say this really happened.....are you in Nashville? .....If not, is there somewhere I can go to confirm this dinner even happened or what was discussed???(ala "him giving Saban full control")

Man... that Jimmy has a lot of friends in coaching/broadcasting...
Too bad none of them were available 2 years ago...
Oh, wait...
Ain't that the truth? Anyway I think Nick Saban is a little older than a new rebuilding head coach should be.Man... that Jimmy has a lot of friends in coaching/broadcasting...

But remember no matter how much money you have a free dinner is a free dinner!

Saban is 64 years old. That would make him the second oldest coach behind Coughlin. Can't see him trying to make the transition back to the NFL at that age.

Yup, see below.
Leave a regular CFB playoff contender to try and work with the Browns? Doubtful.
Saban's latest salary is $6.9 million- only Bellichick and Sean Payton make more. He's got lifetime job security at 'Bama, & the boosters paid off his house for him. About a 1% chance he'd want to make a move.

You want a guy who might think about testing the NFL waters? Here's your guy. Should Iowa (just make the playoff) or win the National Championship, there's going to be plenty of teams interested in his services. The NFL would be a significant raise too.

I live in Murfreesboro, TN just moved down here about two years ago from Toledo Ohio area. I heard it on the Nashville ESPN radio station.
*** GO DAWGS , GO BUCKS , GO CAVS, and GO INDIANS *** *** BUCKEYE's RULE *** *** STEELERS STILL SUCk, and SO DOES OUR GOVERNMENT *** -
What about Bret Bielema?
I wouldn't hate that but I would still be leary of a first time NFL coach.
Did he ever work as an assistant on an NFL squad?

Im sorry....Im sure those guys may have been talking about it, but I gotta call complete BS on the whole notion.....
First off, Saban was in Alabama sunday, and in fact, was conducting the weekly SEC teleconference when your guys are saying he was having dinner with Haslem.....so, right there, I can tell ya that dinner didnt happen....
And...if it did(which it didnt).....I doubt that a couple ESPN radio personalities would have the inside scoop on what was discussed....and I doubt such a hi-profile meeting happens at a public restaurant....(seriously?)...hahaha
And....if they did(which they didnt)....it would be national news right now.....and huge news in Alabama.....or Cleveland.....
So.....gotta chalk this one up as another.... "Cowhers in Strongsville looking at houses right now".....
I will say, in my searches, that I found out its already a done deal for Saban to go to Indy as HC...AND he's also gonna be the Giants new D coordinator.....as well as going to NE to re-unite with Billychuck......all while secretly signing to take over the Lions.....
So he is about to be one busy busy man.....

Could we just bring in somebody who has proven before he could run an NFL team succesfully?
And, could we just bring in some playmakers on both sides of the ball plus special team?
