Parcells on ESPN Radio Now

Huizenga offered Parcells the HC job and/or GM job but Bill said no and obviously accepted the VP of Football Operations and offered Keyshawn a job to play for the Fins jokingly (I think).

Making it sound like he is going to bring in his own guys from the HC and coaching staff to GM.

E: Just said he will put a GM in place, think it is safe to say Mueller is a goner and said something very similar about the HC job.

doesn't sound like he has said anything to the affect of bringing in a new GM or HC

he has said however, that he will not trump the GM, take that as you like

there is also a little banter regarding keyshawn coming to the dolphins

Huizenga offered Parcells the Head Coaching job HUH? Where is all the Cameron supporters at? Go ahead, tell me how Cameron gets another year over one win when not even HUIZENGA wants him here?

He did say something like "We will bring in a guy to take of the roster and things of that nature."

"if football is not their #1 priority, aside from their IMMEDIATE family, then i dont want them here" -parcells in regards to the HC and GM he will employ

Parcells is also very aware of where Miami stands draft pick wise and is very aware of Miami's 2 2nd round picks.

in regards to the #1 pick, parcells said "we will take who we think will be best for the dolphins. someone that will be good for a long time"

So are we in agreement that it did sound like he was bringing in his own guys?

To me that tells me he is looking for a lineman as qb is too much of a crapshoot and he doesn't belive in taking running backs that high.

No

I did not really hear anything to make me believe he will bring in new guys.

I also did not hear anything to make me believe he will keep who we have.

He sounded non-committal on the issue. He was just speaking on his general philosophy for a GM and HC

After listening to it again I get the vibe he is going to bring his own people in but to each his own.

E: He also never mentioned Mueller or Camerons name when talking about it and he said numerous times he'll bring in someone.

He also stated he wanted people he can work with that share the same philosophy. He never said he would retain the current staff just mentioned he might but immediately followed it with talking about if he brought new guys in.

Man, Brown you just kind of hear what you want to hear. He didn't say he wouldn't pick a RB or QB at all, he just said he wants someone good that will be here a while, that can mean any position.

He also doesn't say he wants to bring new people in, just that the people who are in those positions put football first. That doesn't mean he will get rid of anyone if Cam and Randy put football first. Its a wait and see game, stop twisting his words.

I'm not saying he won't. I'm just saying that I believe he is making a point of not saying anything regarding the situation.

If he is bringing in new people, it wouldn't be fair for him to say anything until the season concludes.

No, he said more then once he will bring someone in to take of those jobs and sure I twisted the words when it came to draft time because based on history he will not take a quarterback or running back that high.

My guess is Parcells is going to run this team his way, he has an idea of the type of players he wants and the GM needs to share his views. The coaching staff will also need to be aligned with Parcells vision for the team. As he stated, he needs the GM and Coach to share his philosophy.

Exactly. Sounds to me like he is serving notice. He is simply saying that if you are going to be part of the Miami Dolphins, you had better be committed to winning.....or else.

As we have seen so many times in years past on this board, people will twist interviews to fit their agenda.

IMHO with all due respect guys, but do you really think that he is going to say exactly what he's going to doing in terms of bringing in a new HC or GM? Right now, he doesn't want be a distraction because of the upcoming big game against the Pats. He's always been great at handling the media and not giving alot of information about exactly what he's going to do or not.

Now he is just going over the off-season schedule such as off-season surgery, trades, FA, college All-Star games etc.

Now he is discussing what he is going to do once the season ends, and I must say I consider it a real treat to listen to the man speak.

But I will say, from what he said, it sounds as if he is going to be handling the GM duties, and will be overseeing every aspect of personnel management. From evaluating injured players, to creating a mock draft, to bringing in scouts to bring in evaluations of personnel, etc.
