<![CDATA[How do we hire a HC?]]> What is 'the process'?

We fired the coach mid-season.  We hired an Interim HC.  We did not have to satisfy any Rooney Rule to do that.

After the Ravens game, can we just hire Williams as our HC?   Are we allowed to say, "We test drove it.  We like it. We're gonna buy it."?  Or are we now compelled to interview a person besides Williams?

- just asking -  I'm not suggesting that's what we should do.

Defense is 31 out of 32 when it was supposed to be top 5, Offense is 14th. Those numbers are not going to win any games against teams with a winning record. Hence the reason GW is 0-FER against teams with a winning record.

He's a good OC.  As a HC he would be less involved in looking at snap-shots and working with the QB while the D was on the field.  Less effective game-day OC.  And I didn't like his stint as a HC.  Doesn't rule out him doing a better job the 2nd time around...

Why? You know him or did you hear it on tv? And do you understand that tv is nothing but a electronic reality distortion device. Electronic LSD for idiots. That’s why even live sports are better with the sound off.

How any gm would even consider that loser is beyond me. His agent quit on him after that debacle.  Guess who also is represented by the same said agent?

McDaniels would do great things with Baker and the offense, regardless on whether people like it or not.  And since this isn't a defensive league anymore, that's where you go.

"Browns: Even after the surging second half of the season, Browns interim coach Gregg Williams isn't considered a front-runner or anything close for the full-time job. He will, however, receive an interview. Cleveland is expected to cast a wide net and has no mandate to keep both coordinators, despite their success. Either way, Freddie Kitchens has earned the right to be a coordinator somewhere. Among those expected to be considered or inquired about are McCarthy, Iowa State coach Matt Campbell, Patriots de facto defensive coordinator Brian Flores and offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, and Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus."

That's him. Promote him for his time to "assistant head coach" or "Senior Offensive Assistant" or whatever Freddie Kitchens old title was and call it a day.

Should the Rooney rule apply when you just fired a black head coach?

Seems like after 2 and 1/2 years of that Fiasco we should be exempt from the Rooney Rule for quite a while...

Just let Dee Haslam hire a couple more pool boys.

They should change the name to the more current correctness era.  The Diversity Rule.

I think - and I stress think - the Rooney Rule would still apply and the Browns can't just hire Williams immediately.
