I thought Kubiak said that he's staying put.

I think it's both. He definitely was interested in the Michigan job, but he definitely could have been enticed to stay under different management. York and Baalke had been fueding with him for the past 1-2 years, and leaking all sorts of shit to the media.

The Tomsula hiring is stupid. If you were going to promote internally, go with Fangio, since he's at least called plays at an NFL level. Tomsula has never been a fucking coordinator here. He was for two years in NFL Europe, and had one year as a HC there. That's it, and he's almost 50. This was after jed York was bsing about wanting a teacher too lol

Not only that, but his hiring is almost assuredly going to cost the Niners Fangio since he got passed over. He stated multiple times: if you don't hire me, hire an offensive coach. At this point, if the Niners don't win the division and win at least a game in the playoffs, it's a failure. TBH, anything less than the NFCCG is a failure.

What are the chances McDaniels gets a HC job (maybe Chicago?) after this season? He failed pretty spectacularly in Denver, and only looks good when his offense is ran by Tom Brady, but he's garnished interest before and has shown that he wants a HC position. If Bill were closer to retirement he'd stick around but that doesn't appear to be happening in the near future.

I would be amazed if Brooks came back. Even though Harbaugh is gone, he's still damn expensive, and Lynch played well at his position. For a team that has a lot of cap issues coming up, they need to save where they can.

And yeah I don't like it because they slimmed Smith down specifically to play 3-4. Granted, they, like most 3-4s, are really hybrid fronts, and Smith does kind of suck ass in coverage. He's a stand up rusher sometimes and has his hand in the dirt too. It seems silly to confine him. I don't worry about Willis and Bowman. They're studs no matter what they play (I think each actually had some 4-3 experience in college actually, Willis at ILB and Bowman at OLB).

The issue becomes the other players and hoping they make the switch. It seems like an unnecessary gamble to make for a team that is a year removed from the playoffs. That's something you do to a crappy team. I get that losing J Smith and McDonald creates major holes for their current scheme but damn

also, to add the impressive downward spiral, the Niners canned Vic Fangio... after blocking a couple of requests for interviews this offseason

lol

Perhaps in Atlanta, where Dimitroff is GM and Pioli is an assistant GM. Wouldn't surprise me to see them hire McDaniels.

Pioli single-handedly ruined Kansas City, and I don't even understand why Atlanta would want him anywhere in their organization. But once you see that the current GM is a former Patriot, it makes a little bit more sense. People from the Patriots organization tend to stick together, and there's one thing that's true about almost all of them: they better thank Tom Brady for their job every night, cause without him they'd be way out of the NFL by now.

Who sets up a giant press conference off campus just to say you're coming back to school? Why set one up in general? What a tool.

He's a liar too. "Football has always been a stepping stone for my education" when he said literally the opposite 2 years ago.
