I know FBT wanted TC.  I remember Brklyn going back and forth...pre hire he was staunch pro Marrone, post hire he was not so thrilled about it...now he's warming to him again.

I liked Marrone since his Buffalo days, but was open to any number of guys.

I know you weren't asking me, but personally I wanted to see them go hard after harbaugh if possible, TC would have been my second choice only because of his age. I was okay with Marrone, but it was irritating that they had the better head coach on staff for years already and wasted a fourth year on Gus.

I'll never, ever, understand the rationale behind that decision. It was clearly obvious that Gus was at the controls of a flaming, smoking airplane which was spiraling towards the ground. Yes still, still, they gave that putz another year. This is why I'm glad to see TC onboard again. The front office and the ownership suite both needed 'How to Run an NFL Franchise 101' instruction. If TC were to hang it up tomorrow, this franchise would be all the better for it in just the short amount of time he's been back.
