So Nate Hackett was fired too?
Dream job.
Yeah, I don't think it really matters who coaches the last 2 games, does it? I don't see Doug getting the gig, but I guess stranger things have happened
Who blew a better situation for themselves: Doug Marrone w Syracuse/Bills or jeff jagodzinski who had BC as a top 15 program and blew it all to interview for the Jets (asst coach with Georgia St now). Time will tell if Marrone gets another gig again.
Funny, a few weeks ago I had a conversation with a former BC football player who knows the BC Program quite well.
We spoke about Jagodzinski.
When I made the observation that the guy really blew it, he indicated otherwise. he told me that J was not seen as an effective coach. He suggested that the decision to terminate him was not a difficult one.
I got the impression that the BC folks used the Jets interview as justification for doing what they wanted to do.
Is it weird that Hackett was given the OC gig instead of Marrone in October? Has Doug become a lifetime position coach in the NFL at this point, maybe by his own request to a certain extent, not sure. Either way he will be looking for a new gig.
The way he left Buffalo was just bad business, probably no coincidence that he is working for the worst franchise in the NFL.
And Assistant Head Coach for the offense (odd that they made that distinction as there is no such position listed for the defense).Not really. Hackett was QB Coach. Dougie was OL Coach.
this will give dougie the perfect excuse to 'quit' the interim role, before he gets fired.
at least we know hes good at it.
what jobs will be open this year??His agent is negotiating the opt out clause after 1 game.
Not really. Hackett was QB Coach. Dougie was OL Coach.
Who's better suited to take over as OC ... the guy who already works with Bortles every day, or the guy who works with the grunts.
