The Jets have announced OC Brian Schottenheimer has decided to part ways with the team. #Jets #NFL32

end up with dad in tampa?

More like the Jets decided to part ways with him.

Can Kurt still coach a defense?

Clark eagerly awaits to tell Pioli to call him.

When did he coach a defense?...

Hue is probably going to NY.

Sounds like Haley or Tony Sparano

With Bill Callahan to Cowboys & Brian Schottenheimer leaving, next anticipated #Jets move is hiring former Dolphins coach Tony Sparano as OC

It seems like a.brief moment in time.he coached it here with Marty. I could be wrong though.

Mort says Jets expected to hire Sparano as OC. My guess is if they want Sparano, they hire him for OL and Haley for OC...

I doubt there's much out there for Haley...

If Haley turned Sanchez into a stud this place would explode. LMAO

I wouldn't be so sure. The way the NFL retreads these guys. You never know.

Wrong. Jets are his biggest suitor.

If Haley and Rex Ryan end up in the same locker room I would LOVE for them to get Hard Knocks again

Spurt was one of the 3 stooges.

I will repeat the question: when did he coach a defense?...

Yeah, sure.

I think I get it.now...maybe. ?

Tony Sparano has been first in line for Jets in event of this move, per league sources. Expect an announcement by Wednesday. #Jets #NFL32

That should work out.

Being he was so good with a $#itty QB here...

If Al Saunders get's canned by the Raitards, I can see jetsss get him.

Kurt coached the defense when Gun was HC. He was also DC in Detroit a few years.

He had the title. He didn't coach $#it...:harumph:

Probably a good move on his part. All the blame for Sanchez' failing are falling at his feet.

Source: Jets told Schottenheimer to get another job or get out

And so Jets offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer has resigned. Yes, he has resigned.

More accurately, he has “resigned.”

Per a league source, Schottenheimer resigned after being told by the Jets to get another job, or get out. With the Jaguars’ head-coaching job going to Mike Mularkey and no other team interested in Schottenheimer as a head-coaching candidate, it was time to go.

The Jets owed Schottenheimer more than $3 million over the next two years, and it’s unlikely that he’d walk away from that money. The source says the Jets created the impression that Schottenheimer would be back and otherwise talked him up in the hopes that he’d be hired elsewhere — and that the Jets would be off the hook for the buyout.

The only problem is that, even if the Jets admit that they were creating a ruse, they’ve created yet another credibility problem for themselves.

And that’s the kind of thing that could cost the team a lot more than $3 million over the long haul.
