Objectively a good hire, but I don’t think it’s nearly enough to save the situation they are in personnel wise, and their head coach is still Matt Luke.

 

[Joe Schmedlap]

Its a good hire

Looks like a really good hire. I would assume if they fire Luke next year he was assured he would get an interview for the head job

Won 41% of games he coached.

Won 41% of games he's coached and just fired after losing six straight. I'd love for him to be their head coach after Luke is cut loose after next year. Their fan base will pretend like they like this hire on nafoom and the echo chamber, but they are disappointed. They wanted a young, big time splash hire and all they got was someone past his prime that has some GOB connections and fits in with their ilk. Behind the scenes, they're disappointed.

Didn’t he cover up some **** like Urban?

DC/Interim.

He’s certainly got the haircut for the job

Worse than that. Girlfriend went to Macintyre and told him assistant was beating her and Mike goes on to promote assistant to DC.

Don’t expect to ever see a word about this in the MS mainstream media.

DC/Interim.

The article says 3 years at $1.5M/yr. Might still be temporary, but they'd owe him some buyout I'd think.

 

[Clarence Boddicker]

It's about the only hire they could make. He needs a paycheck and no up-and-comer is going to ruin his career by coaching for a guy who is more than likely gone a year from now, especially if they have seen the Bears personnel.

Not sure why anyone thinks that they'll want to hire MM as a permanent coach after Luke is canned. Their D will not magically get better in one season, especially after losing almost the whole secondary off a terrible defense.

They waaaaayyyyy overpaid for that position. But that's what they do. They'd pay Goofy $1.5 MM just to say their DC was higher paid than ours.
