After a short 2 years. That's the key to a championship culture.

Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.

Can't remember his user name, but he's the dude that got banned for posting drunk and calling people anti-Semitic n****rs.

Tennessee has bigger issues outiside of Munchak. He's a problem, but that roster on the offensive side of the ball isn't all that spectacular. Big questions at QB, WR, and CJ isn't going to last much longer either.

Funny though... ownership wants him to go in a different direction with his staff, he refuses, gets the boot. Same situation here... Interesting.

He probably isn't a member, but I think Ireland is. I believe his user name is GMJohnson.

Why is this a positive? Essentially eliminates the HC ability to control his staff, despite assurance from management.

We have one unconfirmed and more or less vague report that Philbin refused to fire anyone.

The things people just accept as gospel can really be ridiculous sometimes, especially with all the complete and utter BULL**** reports we've had the past few years.

I remember someone in another thread talking about how Philbin wouldn't refuse to fire coaches if it meant his job would be in jeopardy. Which still may be true but this shows it isn't crazy for a coach to be loyal even if it puts himself at risk (not that I really blame them).

Hell with other coaches getting canned after 2 years...if Im Ross I might take advantage of this time to clean house. Problem is...you almost want to have something in place.

And the fact that Mike Sherman is still employed.

That doesn't prove Philbin was asked to fire anyone.

No but it sure is an indictment on Philbin.

IF....Sherman is our OC next year and Philbin is still HC, then yes. As it stands right now, we have no idea what is going on so there's no indictments of anyone.

Maybe Munchak gets the Penn St job, but if he doesn't I'd sure like it if we hired him to coach the OL.

What we know is that nothing is going on and there are rumors Philbin refuses to fire Sherman....thats all we know right now.

And that is exactly why I'm not willing to give up on Philbin yet. It takes time to build the kind of team you want.

Munchak is a Penn State alum, isn't he? Makes sense his name would've been mentioned prior to O'Brien leaving if he is an alum.

It takes a whole lot of time if you're a bad coach.
