MikeInRoch Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 At least that is what ESPN is reporting...

MadBuffaloDisease Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 It's too bad. Even though he wasn't a great HC, Wannstedt seemed like a classy guy.
Pete Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 Best news I've heard all season! Maybe the Pats will fire BB and hire Gilbride to be their head coach! It would be about as boneheaded as that move. 109004[/snapback] No way! Best news would be if the Dolphins signed whanstat to a 10 year extention
BB2004 Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 It's too bad. Even though he wasn't a great HC, Wannstedt seemed like a classy guy. 109006[/snapback] He is a good guy, but every head coaching job he had, he's lost.
Bear Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 No way! Best news would be if the Dolphins signed whanstat to a 10 year extention 109009[/snapback] Yeah, I just deleted my post. I can't read.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 He is a good guy, but every head coaching job he had, he's lost. 109010[/snapback] I know, that's why I said he's not a great HC (or even a good one). Just that I have a soft spot in my heart for genuinely good guys, and he seemed like one. I'd take him as a DC in a heartbeat.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 No the best news would be that the Dols signed Spurrier to a 10-year contract. I can't stand Spurrier and he sucks as a HC.
drnykterstein Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 at FinHaven.com they are cheering like they just won a game or something. heh, the fish winning a game --- thats a funny thought.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 I wonder who will replace him? 109018[/snapback] DC Jim Bates in the interim. But hopefully Spurrier for many, many years. Actually I think it will be Saban.
Bear Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 DC Jim Bates in the interim. But hopefully Spurrier for many, many years. Actually I think it will be Saban. 109021[/snapback] Charlie Weis
MadBuffaloDisease Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 Charlie Weis 109028[/snapback] I'd be fine with that. He'll need to rebuild Miami first, and his loss would be a big blow for the Pats.
PromoTheRobot Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 Wanny is just the latest Fin to jump ship. My hope is they sign Spurrier. They are circling the drain now. Spurrier will send them right down the disposal. PTR
ndmanley Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 At least that is what ESPN is reporting... 108998[/snapback] As Wanny did with Chicago, he did win with other coach's players. But as his time wore on, those guys either left or got old. His guys could never replace them. Slowly but surely his teams got progressively worse. It is a sad day. Wanny's slowly guided Miami all the way to the basement. It is a shame he won't stay to keep them there. If Spurrier is the guy, hopefully he is as inept as he was in Washington.
PromoTheRobot Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 Charlie Weis 109028[/snapback] I question Weis' contribution to the Pats. He is blessed with players who can execute, a QB with pinpoint accuracy, and some damn lucky calls. Folks here in NE question his play calling, and believe Brady saves his bacon. I'd hire DC Romeo Cromell before I'd hire Weis. PTR
Mile High Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 42 and 31 in the regular season. 1 and 2 in the playoffs. Not bad but I guess not good enough. Classy guy and all but not a great supporting cast this year.
Talonz Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 I am sure he will get hired quickly next year. His record actually isn't bad. The Dolphins are so putrid that I doubt even Vince Lombardi could help them at this point.
Grant Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 Yeah, that's exactly what the ESPN commentators said, Talonz. Word for word. Original thought. ANYway, I don't think Wanny will get another HC job too soon... I think most people realize that he was just coasting on the team that Jimmy Johnson built, and Wanny had more to do with the implosion of the team than Ricky did. Wanny set that team up for a fall, Ricky was simply the catalyst.
Alaska Darin Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 I hope they win all but one game the rest of the way. Not because Wanny's leaving, but so they move down some in the draft (and we could use some help). I REALLY hate the Dolphins
