Jags just used leftwitch to satisfy the Rooney rule. Smh

Well that’s 100% not true.

Dude accepted the job after the Jags offered it to him but then said he doesn’t want Baalke.

Jags are stalling. The OConnell stuff could be from his camp trying to push another team to hire him.
Is it possible the delay is because Khan needs time to do some sort of background check on Adrian Wilson? Or maybe interview him?
Really like O'Connell, unless he is willing to work with Baalke.
The problem as a few have mentioned at this stage any one you bring in is clearly a 5/6th choice how do you build excitement and buy in to a programme when all the fans media and players are aware that it’s not what anyone wanted
O’Connell looks like a great consolation prize if leftwich not possible.

That's if he's willing to work with Baalke which will have to be the case because if it wasn't they would just go with Leftwich.

He likely isn’t willing to work with Baalke or he would have been in on the initial interviews right?

Or Baalke is grasping at straws.

"Hey I worked with this one up and comer in 2016 in my worst season right before I got fired by the 49ers. Let's get him an interview and see if he doesn't hate my guts."

I mean that makes since but nothing with this has made since so I could totally see it being a deal where he wasn't even a thought until until everyone else they like said "nah I'm good".
We interviewed other candidates even though they ended up expressing reservations about baalke.


I hope the same happens here and Khan gets a massive pie in his face. I don’t know how many people turning down this job because of baalke it will take to get that man’s head out of his rump.
Tony needs to ask questions like:
“Are you ok with stepping down or getting fired after one season if Trent doesn’t like you? (Gets smacked in the back of the head) what dad? You know it’s true”

The truth is we don't know who their first choice is. Too much bs rumors posted as facts

We may not know who the first choice ultimately was, but we sure as hell know it wasn't a candidate who popped up more than a month into the search and who still hasn't even been interviewed.

We know at least 3 were scheduled for a second interview though.
Balkie is like a few of our players. If the Jags didn't have a team he would be out of football.

He already does, I just don't think he realizes it. His ego is so big, he refuses to see that he is a joke to the rest of the NFL.

Yeah. We just all want to see something exciting happen tomorrow or Tuesday or maybe any time this week coming up
