Quote:It is out of respect to a man whom held the highest position in coaching (head coach) to make him an (asst HC) especially if you are going to pay him an considerable ammount as an expert OL coach.

Hopefully we hire off credintials and not respect... Marrone is incredibly qualified to do the job he was hired for.. I dont think they would tack an extra title on to his position just because they respect the guy... And on the money side, i doubt they would have to justify what they pay the guy, not to mention the 4 mil he has coming in from buff, at least to me, makes me think they wouldnt have to add too much money to his contract in the first place... Him choosing us over any other team, imo, means doug and gus have a connection like has been stated over and over and over agin in this thread, or (this was kind of the line of thought that lead me to the op) he may see a potential opportunity to move up in the team.
