Jsteelz is about as connected as anybody when it comes to the Skins.

Wow, you are serious. I'd rather stick to actual reporters like Keim. Jsteelz sounds more like a disgruntled fan.

I don't know what to believe anymore, but it's not like it matters. Like a captain, I'm going to go down with this sinking ship. I just hope that it's not as bad as it seems.

You listen to SS don't you? Jsteelz may sound disgruntled, but he knows what he's talking about.

Keep in mind her sources are all in the Redskins organization, who of course would not want this to be seen as true.

And some.... Of the defense produced.... Who knows

[JoeRedskin]

The "Fangio can't have Donatell b/c he has to keep Morris" may or may not be true - we'll never know. So much information being thrown around, it's hard to say.

In the twitterverse, by beat reporters and others (they follow him, he follows them, it's a swirling vial of incestuous information and innuendo), Jsteelz is generally considered a reliable and connected source - he's not always right but he seems to be acknowledged by all as being in the know.

In this case, however, he is simply retweeting the info provided by Chicago beat writer Michael Wright (a former Washington beat writer) who, in turn, says an unnamed coach told him (no indication if it is a Washington or Chicago coach). Keim states that, in conversations between Washington assistant coaches (implying his source is a current assistant not named Morris), that M. Wright's info is incorrect and no one has been told they will be on the new staff.

Also, the story doesn't quite make sense, they brought Donatell in for an interview for the DC position.

Again, lots of info out there, it's going to play out as it will. Either RM is back or he's not (he was HC in T-Bay and hired Barry as LB coach after his 0-16 stint in Detroit). Either way, if Barry sucks, Gruden's gone and we reset (again) in 2016.

I am hoping: (1) Barry is an excellent DC waiting to happen; (2) Gruden is shaking out the Shanny leftovers and building a staff and team with which he can win; and (3) RGIII comes back strong and is the franchise QB we saw flashes of early in his career.

Right now. Just not having real high expectations that all or any of the three occur.

with this team and the anonymous internet .. who knows what is true

If Morris ends up moving on I guess we'll know for sure.

They did let him interview with the Giants, so how desperate are they to keep him really?

Yeah but that was for a DC position, a step up from his current role. I don't think they can even stop that, isn't it against the rules (even if they're unwritten) to prevent someone from interviewing for a promotion?

Looks like Barry is purging the old defensive staff:

ESPN 980 @ESPNRadio980 · 55m 55 minutes ago
Three sources have either told or confirmed to @ESPNRadio980 that #Redskins DL Coach Jacob Burney (hired in 2010) will not be coming back.

Dianna Marie Russini ‏@NBCdianna 7m7 minutes ago
As the Redskins begin to reshape the coaching staff on defense, league sources have told me Raheem Morris is talking with other teams.

If that's the case, I stand corrected. Seemed as if he's verifying the story.

1) I don't believe, never believed, they were truly close to getting Fangio nor that either side really wanted anything to happen

2) Raheem has since the day he arrived been much more than a position coach, he's very influential on the staff. Was he calling the defense? I can't say that for sure

3) Raheem interviewing with other teams doesn't mean the Redskins don't like him

4) Jsteelz has been very very wrong on things before, but who hasn't? He's well connected. He and I bounce information off each other all the time. Sometimes we confirm what the other is hearing, other times we have completely different information

5) Keep in mind reporters get information from not just public facing people (players, coaches) but also those behind the scenes. The ones that the Jsteelz of the world connects with

6) Mainstream media is also limited by rules like "off the record" and "on background" that others are not

7) I don't know if Haslett left for any reason other than he knew his leash was very very short
