I mean, JG is going to be re-signed so why worry about what other coach we’re missing out on interviewing. LO ‘EFFING L.

Vandagriff probably realized he wouldn’t be seeing the field anytime soon and hurting his long term development thus future opportunities Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

textaz03 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) I’ve been thinking this over today. I wonder if Garrett is actually negotiating an executive position with the team. After all Jerry sees this as a family business. Why else needing 3 meetings to find out your future job status. Second if Jerry loved Jason so much, he wouldn’t do him a disservice by holding him out of future job offers. With that said, I’m gonna go with the idea that I’ve seen floater a few small times. Jerry loves a big splash right? What a bigger splash than Nick Saban?? There are A few connections. Garrett was Saban’s QB Coach in Miami, Jason Witten and Saban share the same agent, Jimmy Sexton. Witten is another intrical family member to Jones and Garrett. so perhaps this entire wait was to have Alabama finish the Citrus Bowl today before any announcements would be made. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 Edited January 1, 2020 by textaz03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt79511 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 It really is insane how they’re playing out the string here due to “respect” when in practice it’s the opposite. Say what you want of Garrett and his staff, but they deserve the right to seek new employment rather than hang around in this limbo. Or maybe we’re just incompetent. That’s probably it. How does this process endear us to future candidates? It’s like we’re holding onto him out of spite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think he told his coaching staff that if something else comes along, take it. So there isn't any hold up there for them. It has all played out very strangely I will admit.

If there is a HR hire, I would have to think Saban probably trumps everyone outside of Belichick. Definitely not going to hold my breath.

Vandagriff probably realized he wouldn’t be seeing the field anytime soon and hurting his long term development thus future opportunities There are a few issues here: 1) Why commit your OU in the first place, then? 2) Rattler was 2019, Vandagriff is 2021. Rattler will be draft eligible after 2021. Vandagriffwould be in line to likely start as a RS Freshman. Worst case scenario he starts as a RS Sophomore. That’s not at all a bad situation at all. Whether he Riley is leaving this year or not, I don’t know. But I think Vandagraff made his decision because he assumes Riley won’t be around for long more than because of Rattler.

acowboys62 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Only logical thing I can think of as to why they are holding onto Garrett still is they want the Giants to sign up a new coach before we dismiss Garrett assuming they do not want him to remain in the NFCE. Outside of that there is zero logic and it is just pathetic, kind of like this entire franchise over the pat 25+ years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
