Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 1885262, member: 780"] What sticks in my mind was Coughlin's comments after being fired as Macpherson came in. The Dome had just been completed and the Maloney staff, of which he was a member, had resurrected the program from the wreckage of the early and mid 1970's" It was something like, "Well, now that things are looking up, we get the axe. This coaching staff has been the one to steer the program through the dark times and now we get fired?" And he was, IMO, right. The 79 team that played all its games on the road with Hurley and Monk and Joe Morris and Craig Wolfley was pretty good. These guys deserved better. [/QUOTE]
