Well ok, I’m just explaining what the incentive is if they hire minority assistants.  If it’s a close call between two guys, this policy may sway the decision making.  

I get it... not knocking your post?... just expressing my feelings with regards... no matter how Anyone wishes to sugarcoat it... that's just Blatant Racism. ?

Kris Richard was suprisingly out of football in 2020. He did a good job with the Dallas D and actually interviewed for the Jets HC job when Gase was hired. I think he worked with Saleh in Seattle also

Richard was out of football by choice in 2020 because he was offered a bunch of DB coach jobs and felt that his resume warrants a coordinator job and frankly I would agree.  I think a guy like that coming from a year off is a good thing.  Would absolutely love the hire.

Im surprised there is no mention of any of our own guys.   Boyer and Dennard Wilson seem like 2 coaches that Id like to keep.  

The OL coach will be important too.  Pollack is gone, back to Cincy, so its an open job.  Whats interesting is the asst OL Coach in SF is Chris Forrester the guy from the infamous video when he was the Dolphins OL coach.   Shannahan had coached with him in Washington and brought him to SF after he went through rehab etc to give him a second chance. Hes apparently been fully sober since the day he resigned from Miami

Huge hire. Don't know his name, but wondering if the Notre Dame OL coach is on the radar? They have produced some really good players the past few years. Maybe we should go to "our guys" @Mogglezand @football guywith this question?

Jeff Quinn – Notre Dame Fighting Irish – Official Athletics Website (und.com)

Jeff Quinn enters his fourth year in 2018 with the Notre Dame football program and first as offensive line coach. He served the last three years in a variety of roles, including most recently as senior offensive analyst.

Quinn’s highest-profile offensive line protégées include Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce and San Francisco 49ers left tackle Joe Staley.

Kelce — starting center for the 2017 NFC Champion Eagles — has been selected to a pair of NFL Pro Bowls (2014, 2016) and twice has been named All-Pro (2013, 2017). In 2011, he became the first rookie in team history to start every game at center and first Eagles rookie offensive lineman to start all 16 games since Doug Brzezineski (1999). In 2014, Kelce was the first Eagles center named to the Pro Bowl since Jim Ringo after the 1967 campaign.

A former walk-on linebacker that converted to offensive line, Kelce was a two-time All-BIG EAST Conference performer at both guard and center at Cincinnati. He started the last 38 games of his collegiate career before the Eagles selected him in the sixth round of the 2011 NFL Draft.

Staley — 11th year starting left tackle for the 49ers — has been selected to six NFL Pro Bowls (2011-15, 2017) and three times has been named All-Pro (2011-13). In 2007, he became the first San Francisco rookie offensive lineman to start every single game in a season since Cas Banaszek in 1968. Staley was one of three NFL rookies and two offensive linemen (Cleveland Browns left tackle Joe Thomas) to line up for every single snap in 2007. In both 2015 and 2016, he was one of eight finalists for the annual Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award, presented annually to the NFL player who best demonstrates the qualities of on-field sportsmanship, including fair play, respect for the game and opponents, and integrity in competition.

Staley arrived on Central Michigan’s campus as a 225-pound tight end in 2003, but prior to his sophomore season, Quinn and Kelly asked him to make the switch to offensive tackle. In the first offseason, Staley added 20 pounds to his lean frame. By the time he was a senior, he reached 300 pounds and recorded the fastest 40-yard dash time (4.7) of any offensive lineman at the 2007 NFL Combine. Staley went on to become the first player in school history to be drafted in the first round of the NFL Draft. He played in 46 games (39 starts) at Central Michigan and helped the Chippewas produce a 1,000-yard rusher in three of his four seasons, while also allowing just one sack over his last two years.

Prior to his tenure at Notre Dame, Quinn served as the head coach at the University at Buffalo from 2010-14, which included a 2013 campaign that saw the Bulls finish with an 8-5 record. The eight wins equalled the most for Buffalo in the regular season since it moved to the Football Bowl Subdivision in 1999. The Bulls also won a school-record six Mid-American Conference games and registered a seven-game winning streak in 2013. The Bulls participated in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl — the program’s second bowl appearance.

Quinn had three of his players selected in the National Football League draft, including linebacker Khalil Mack, who was chosen fifth overall by the Oakland Raiders in 2014. Mack was the highest NFL Draft pick in school history and the highest defensive player ever selected from the Mid-American Conference. Quinn’s teams also performed well in the classroom as Buffalo recorded the best overall GPA and APR ranking in program history during his tenure.

As offensive coordinator and offensive line coach at Cincinnati (2007-2009), Quinn helped the Bearcats to a 12-0 regular-season record in 2009 and served as the interim head coach for the Sugar Bowl meeting with defending national champion Florida.

Quinn was named a finalist for the 2009 Broyles Award, which is given to the nation’s top assistant coach. Unranked in preseason polls, Cincinnati’s undefeated regular season catapulted the Bearcats to No. 3 in the BCS standings and earned them an invitation to the Sugar Bowl, the school’s second consecutive BCS game.

Prior to his stint at Cincinnati, Quinn was the associate head coach and offensive coordinator at Central Michigan. He helped the Chippewas to the 2006 MAC title. Quinn served as interim head coach for Central Michigan in its 31-14 victory over Middle Tennessee in the 2006 Motor City Bowl.

Quinn arrived at CMU in 2004 after 15 seasons at Grand Valley State. He was part of the staff that led the Lakers to back-to-back national championships in 2002 and 2003.

Quinn is a 1984 graduate of Elmhurst College where he was a two-sport standout in football and wrestling. He was twice named Student-Athlete of the Year at Elmhurst. Quinn was inducted into Elmhurst’s Athletic Hall of Fame in 1993.

Quinn earned a master of arts degree from DePauw in 1986 and an educational leadership master’s degree endorsement from GVSU in 2000.

Quinn and his wife, Shannon, have two sons, Kyle and Ryan.

The somewhat “hush hush” reality is the Jets FO wants a minority coach to be their DC. There’s plenty incentive to (potential future draft picks), but thankfully there are a lot of qualified ones. 

Raheem Morris, Aaron Glenn, Marquand Manuel, Kris Richard, Jerome Henderson are names to keep an eye on. Morris is highly sought after. 

Love the idea of Saleh bringing in some experience too.  I hope Lafleur will do that on offense especially.  Just want stability, I have to think Saleh will look to find the right balance of talented coaches, young, endless skillset for the modern game of football, strategic hiring on experience, and stability where they aren't all gone in a year or two.

He did a very good job with them. 2018 & 2019 Dallas was 11th & 9th in least passing yards allowed. He was even a head coach candidate two years ago as the article referenced.

Gives you sense on what kind of staff he's gonna put together.  Would love to get Morris. I believe Urban Meyer has reached out to Morris.

 

This is a Hellava talk right there!

WOW !!!!

And it points to why in part Todd Bowles failed here in New York.  Too many bland coaches, who were just Ok at their jobs!

Hoping Jerrod Mayo doesn’t get Eagles HC position for that reason. Although the way BB drafts it wouldn’t make a difference

Hopefully we can get the D coordinator position solidified soon.  I read Cimini mentioned that there is a possibility that Saleh calls the plays.  I wonder if that depends on who he can find as the O coordinator.   I almost prefer he find someone he trusts, go get them and then delegate.

Since Saleh is close to LaFluer I wouldn’t mind if he took a run at GBs Asst OL coach Luke Butkus. There is overlap w/Saleh & Butkus at Seattle and Jax
