Now that it's official, do we have any favorites? I'm kinda leaning towards McDaniels myself.

I want a guy w/NFL HC experience. I don't care if it's an offensive guy or a defensive guy. I think that aspect is largely overblown.

But I want a guy that is smart enough to hire an innovative OC that understands what it takes to score in today's NFL.

I kinda want Reich or Nagy ... :cool:

I wasn’t impressed with Reich when he was here before. Pass.

I actually would love for us to go left field and try to hire former Boise St and current Washington Huskies coach Chris Petersen. He has a history of developing players, and of his teams far outperforming the talent level of his rosters. He is 53 years old so in the prime of his coaching career and ready to move up to the NFL. You could argue that as a college coach he hasn't coached in either of the two big leagues ie the SEC or Big 10, but he is the highest paid coach in the PAC 12. He has an overall coaching record of 129-29 which is truly outstanding.

Not a chance. His team's are soft. He would be a huge failure in the NFL.

Schefter saying Gruden is going to be Oakland's new coach. :cool:

Pretty much a done deal
10 mill per plus 10% ownership

Hopefully Irsay lets Ballard do his thing:

I agree but this Tom Cable thing troubles me.

Quick question. What is the rule or time frame when coaches on playoff teams can be interviewed?

Rappaport just said Gruden could end up in Indy.
