Search for Broncos head coach in full gear

Two interviews get set up; feelers are out across country

ENGLEWOOD — The Broncos have reached out to several candidates to become their new head coach, including University of Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops, and will interview at least two candidates in the coming days.

New York Giants defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is expected to meet with team officials Saturday, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers secondary coach Raheem Morris is expected to meet with team officials Monday. League rules permit coaches with teams that have a bye in the first round of the playoffs, like the Giants do, to interview for jobs until Sunday. The interviews usually are conducted in the area around the coach's home city.

After Sunday, assistant coaches with playoff teams can't interview until their team is knocked out, and those on staffs of teams that advance to the Super Bowl can be interviewed in the week immediately following the conference championship games.

The Broncos also have reached out, two league sources said Thursday, to a representative of Stoops, whose team will face Florida in the Bowl Championship Series national championship game next Thursday in Miami.

I doubt Stoops make the leap, but if he does, how do you think he would transition?

let's list the college coaches who have been successful in the NFL since Jimmy Johnson:

1. Butch Davis
2. Steve Spurrier
3. Nick Saban
4. Bobby Petrino
5. Etc....

wait, I meant coaches that have been gigantic failures, most of which quit and ran crying back to college...

I can't wait to see a melt down of epic proportions at the Mange if Bolen hires Raheem Morris.

Stoops would make the mistake of his life if he were to jump to Denver. He's got it made at Oklahoma. Why screw up a sweet gig by taking a lateral step with less job security?
It would be insanity. And hopefully his wife would stop him.

Exactly, it's as stupid as the inevitable Pete Carroll to the NFL rumors that are surely coming at some point.

Just FTR, I wouldn't be against him doing it for the very same reasons that are outlined in this thread.

It would be, except that I would literally cry if Detroit grabbed him. KC deserves a QB of his calibur for ONCE in our miserable lifetimes.

Just ONCE, Goddamnit; that's all I ask!

You know who I could see going if offered the job is Mike Leach. That would be interesting.

My thoughts, exactly.

Please go to Denver, and take Sam Bradford and Gerald McCoy with you.

Word.

The thing I think most people don't get about Mark, is that this was NOT an exceptional outing for him; it was business as usual.
