Marrone fires Hackett

[Crusty]

Yikes

 

[PeteCalvin]

Heard that on PTI earlier. That franchise is a mess. They have bigger problems than offense.

 

[kcsu]

He is and will always be a total dick.

Agree.

 

[kcsu]

Doug is an arrogant narcissist. Im sure he can coach but he has always come across as such a total tool.The way he screwed SU on the way out should never be forgotten.

 

[Moontan]

Probably a situation of “make changes, or we will”.
I’m sure Coughlin was in on this...

 

[Briancuse]

Typical Dougie I love how they wait until now to.bench bortles guy has been the worst qb in the league for quite some time.

 

[HOFCeluck]

Doug Marrone is history’s greatest monster.

 

[Delmar]

He had it written in his contract that he gets 4 million dollars if he ever fires his offensive coordinator.

I think that was Edsall. He gets 5 when he hires him back.

Because he left for an NFL HC position?

Didn't Coach Mac do the same thing?

Silly statement. If you look back at history, Stalin and Hitler were worse

Took a lot of ass'ts too

No. Its because of personal interactions with him.

Yeah right those guys didn’t even coach football.

 

[Chris02M]

pretty sure dougie will be unemployed at the end of the season

 

[OrangeDW]

Couldn’t he be credited for getting his assistants to the NFL?

He was coach of the year last year. He won't be out of work long.

I was talking about Coach Mac.

 

[HOFCeluck]

Seriously it’s amazing that after six years and the season we had people still have the feelings they have about the guy. Ex Girlfriend syndrome to a tee.

Nah. I don't think anybody is actually serious anymore. We're not as thin skinned as Marrone.

It's just fun. I'll be in a nursing home late I. Life cracking jokes about punts and Dove bars that nobody gets and they'll all just think my mind is gone, but I'll know the truth.

I said this previously about Marrone.
He is a good pro coach. However his sycophants on this board who make him out to be greater than he is makes it hard to root for him.
Marrone was a solid coach for us but he fits the pro game a lot more than the college game.
If our AD was aware he was going go pursue a pro job then it did a poor job being prepared for his leaving. If the AD didn’t know Marrone was pursuing a pro job that would shock me.
Marrone left late and that does hurt his legacy.
Marrone won’t get fired this year. His fate will be tied to the rookie the Jaguars draft next April.
I am not confident in Coughlin though as he drafted Leonard Fournette 4th overall over DeShaun Watson and Patrick Mahomes.

So did a -ton if other GMs. That’s were everyone had them ranked.

And TC is not the GM, Caldwell is. Coach is running the organization, I doubt he has much input on personnel.

Jags problem is/was the OC and nobody good working with the QBs.

 

[CousCuse]

Dungey to Jacksonville, Bortles is done.

Coughlin was the guy who wanted Fournette.
While I agree Mahomes wasn’t highly rated Watson was.
What Watson did to Alabama told me he was going to be a good NFL QB.
Him falling to 12 was baffling.
