DEL RIO SENT CONTRACT TO BECOME NEXT USC COACH
By Scott Wolf on January 11, 2010 10:08 PM | Permalink | Comments (21) | ShareThis

Jacksonville Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio was sent a contract by USC tonight to become the next football coach.
Now comes the tricky part: If Del Rio takes the job, he forfeits more than $15 million in salary from the Jaguars. If Jacksonville fires him, they must pay him the money. Why would Jacksonville fire him if they know USC wants him? Should make Tuesday interesting.

It's Scott Wolf so I'd take that with a pretty big grain of salt.

Norton Jr. went with Carrol i think i read that anyway. What about Todd McNair? Isn't he their top recruiter? Wouldn't be a bad choice IMO.

CBS 2 in LA said Herm is the leading candidate but don't count out Lane Kiffin.

Lane Kiffin.

As far as I know Jeremy Bates is the coach going with Carroll, I would expect whoever comes in to strongly try to keep Norton and McNair.

Seattle Seahawks:
A source close to the situation tells FootballCoachScoop that USC Linebackers coach Ken Norton Jr. has been hired as the new Linebackers coach with
the Seahawks.

Can't always trust those sites though.

McNair does have NFL coaching background with the browns too. You would think they would pony up the cash to keep 1 or 2 top recruiters on staff.

Also read Carrol was offering Dwayne Walker a good sized contract to be his DC.

Mecca 01-12-2010 01:45 AM

Hrm, considering Carroll can basically do whatever he wants I wouldn't be surprised if he did take a lot of guys.

Mr. Flopnuts 01-12-2010 01:47 AM

I've heard that Norton is coming to Seattle with Carroll.

booger 01-12-2010 01:49 AM

I just threw McNair out there because of his recruiting ability. The timing would be bad to hire a first time HC. Could offer him the OC job to stay but I'm not sure he would know a lot about the pass game. Not his knowledge but a better way to put it is RB coach to OC doesn't happen as much as WR or QB coach does.

Titty Meat 01-12-2010 01:54 AM

haha Lane Kiffin would be a great hire!

Lane Kiffin.

Herm could throw a staff together pretty quick.

Gailey is waiting for Cowher to return next year otherwise i havn't seen his name brought up anywhere.

Eric Price just went to Memphis as OC. I think Memphis anyway.

Jon Embree is in LA already. I thought i read he went back to UCLA for his degree while on the last year of his Chief contract plus his son is a TE there so that part wouldn't help.

Joe D'Allasandreas, Gailey's guy at OL who we just didn't renew.

Shula, if the Jags staff gets blown up which is likely.

Donnie Henderson hasn't been a DC since Herm went to KC and he went to Detroit.

Martin Bayless and Kevin Ross both coach.

Herm and Mcnair are both from Jersey. Both w/KC at the same time.

Just trying to help Mecca.:)

Kiffin though that would be a suprise even with his past there. Makes sense though.

not sure i buy this one:

South Florida:
Sources tell us that Former Indianapolis Colts Head Coach Tony Dungy met with Athletic Director Doug Woolard today.

Exactly. If I had to guess, I'd say Del Rio won't take the job. Jeff Fisher is another rumor, and I'd say that won't happen either.

My guess would be Herm, and I'm not against that hire. I've learned from my reaction in 2001 - Pete Carroll? Who? WTF?

Dark horse candidate would be Kyle Whittingham from Utah.

Not based on anything in particular, just a call.

pkane 01-12-2010 11:46 AM

Del Rio is denying being contacted by USC. But you know how that goes.

FloridaMan88 01-12-2010 11:48 AM

Jacksonville should get used to losing things to LA.
