Oh, good.
Business decision. Personnel matters where never discussed with Idzik. Also has never made any personnel decisions in Seattle.
Smart guy though. Has full control and has to have Rex for at least this season.
Francesa- "zero football people were involved in the interview process"

You can say EVERY non GM on all NFL staffs didnt make 'decisions'/ The GM makes the final real decisions, not the staffees.Oh, good.

The staffs give input but GM makes call. Gee, this is silly and just Francessa stirring the pot.

So you're saying Woody is not a football person? This is news?
Who would Francesca rather be involved in the interview process... Rex? Bradway? Cmon.

psst.. the owner and the team president are "football people".
your contention that personnel matters were never discussed is laughable.
This wasnt my contention. This was through a NFL exec that called Mike immediately after the hire.
Woody and Glat arent football guys.

No, because he has no history of evaluating players and will have to rely on the same morons that Tannenbaum did.Changing the man in charge of the personnel department is a change to the personnel dept... no?

Why does Bart Hubbuch's story of yesterday mention the Jets having Bill Polian sit in on some of the interviews? Though it's not clear he sat in on Idzik's.
Again, Idzik appears to have a wide-ranging resume of a lifetime devoted to football. Granted mostly it's adminstration, but he has been involved in scouting a\nd coaching.I would've preferred Ross or Gamble but I can at least be fair and wait and see. Veal Fatcessa has been mostly right out the dysfunction of the Jets, but it's clear he would have a problem with whomever the Jets hired.

It's been widely reported that Tanny often ignored his teams recommendations. Many times they felt like their voices weren't heard. Russell Wilson is only the latest example.

Not if they had hired Gamble who was the best candidate BY FAR for this job. Why didn't any other team even attempt to Interview Idzik for any other GM job?Why does Bart Hubbuch's story of yesterday mention the Jets having Bill Polian sit in on some of the interviews? Though it's not clear he sat in on Idzik's.

lol.. and don't you think fielding a SB contender is the quickest way to maximize profits? I don't think they talked about the parking lot.
The Jets clearly arent trying to build a SB contender with the personnel decisions over the past two years.

Who give flying f!@# what this jerkoff has to say about this team. It is obvious to a blind man that he has a agenda. 2nd I trust what a guy like Tony Dungy has to say about his player personnel acumen over that doosh bag
aid Tony Dungy, who coached the Bucs from 1996-2001: "John Idzik was a big part of our success in Tampa and I believe he'll do a great job in New York. He is extremely bright and he knows talent. He's been around football all his life and he understands what it takes to win in the NFL. From a coach's perspective, he was great to work with because he was so knowledgable but was also a good listener. John is a high-quality person and the Jets are very fortunate to have him."
