This guys is adamant that EB is our next coach
From TOS
"I was accused of being a drive by poster, but I will repeat that despite the fact that I dont
often post, I am (for better or worse), on Netbuffs every damn day. Formerly as SF Buff.
I will repeat what I said a few days ago, EB is our next head coach. I have no inside
information about Mac's role, assistants, or specific timing (after Neb, Dec. 1, etc). But, the
agent for EB (agent is an employee of my brother's firm/agency) has already indicated to
CU's "people" (Neinas, or whoever is running things behind the scenes), that EB is
committed to being the coach,and CU has agreed to this (Benson, Bohn, etc). Keep in mind
that EB is under contract currently, but is in a position where his current coach may not be
around much longer. Not to mention the CBA that the NFL faces next year. Vikings last
game is early January, but there is precedent for a coach to finish a role while having
accepted another.
I'm undecided on how I feel about this like many of you. While the nostalgia of EB, Mac, etc
is a feel good, the reality is that EB has never been the CEO, and Mac has not been in the
game for almost 17 years. I do think EB with Mac as an official "mentor" might work, and
would certainly generate some instant excitement and energy (and likely a boost for ticket
sales). As we all know, there are no guarantees in this whole deal, but either way, it is a
done deal.
F&^( em up, F&*% em up, GO CU!!"
