Kentucky Jet Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Eric Mangini talks to Bill Callahan BY RICH CIMINI DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER Thursday, January 10th 2008, 4:00 AM Jets coach Eric Mangini interviewed former Nebraska coach Bill Callahan on Wednesday for an unspecified position on his coaching staff. Callahan's area of expertise is the offensive line. The Jets' two line coaches, Tony Wise and Mike Devlin, are thought to be in trouble. Wise could become the line coach at Pitt. Mangini also may be looking to create a new position, a running-game coordinator, to bolster the team's 19th-rated rushing offense. Callahan, Oakland's head coach in 2002 and 2003, helped build a formidable rushing attack in his years with the Raiders. He could be a candidate for a position with Tampa Bay, where Jon Gruden is making changes on his offensive staff. Callahan and Gruden worked together in Oakland, making a reunion likely. Callahan was fired recently by the Cornhuskers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drago Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 ummm if EM hires this POS, then the wheels have officially fallen off the bus. i don't think so. Some coaches just get in over their heads when they are the top dog (ray rhodes). Giving them a very specific task and about 10 players to work with is a heck of a lot different than having the whole team. A change is needed on that O-line, i'm open for new coaches. For whatever reason, i feel confident that our O-line will have a nice, new look to it next year. I see us getting a quality guard with a late second, or our early third.

rillo Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I like this hire...if it goes though...we need a Oline coach and he has experience in the NFL. Just some guys aren't head coach material, and one of Mangini's early mistakes was in not bringing in men with greater experience than his own.
