Spagnuolo stays with Giants!

[Sean"Big Hurt"Taylor]

I don't have a link yet but ESPN radio just announced that Spags is returning to the Giants to be the defensive coordinator and signed a new three-year contract. Well there goes our season!

[SFREDSKIN]

Yep!!

Spagnuolo turns down 'Skins, sticking with Giants

[SouperMeister]

So does The Danny announce Fassel as HC despite overwhelming public distaste? This entire coaching search was a clusterf#ck from the beginning. We probably would have had a much better shot at Spagnuolo if he could have selected his staff. Frankly, I would prefer Schwartz over Fassel.

I second that!! Schwartz would probably also turn him down.

I think the sentiment of Fassel wasn't directed completely at Fassel, but the fact that Snyder didn't elevate Gregg Williams. Looking at this logically, as things stand now, Jim Fassel is the most logical choice.

Why would you assume because this Spags guy is staying in NY, there goes our season? That makes absolutely NO sense IMO.

Let's avoid the hyperbole.

Schwartz has already extended with the Titans.

LOL yeah I didn't realize our season was dependent on a first year HC.

[Skinny Tee]

Looks like we've got our man who won't mind being fired next year when Bill Cower becomes available.

Good luck on your job security Fassel. Hometown fans don't want you and Snyder covets a coach who is unavailable until next year. You're just the man for the job.

IMO after week two of this season Spags was writting his ticket out of NY. So he got hot over the past six weeks and won the SB, that doesn't mean he is going to be a great HC or even a great DC. He had one great year. IMO I would rather have GW as a DC then Spags he has better record in the long run.

[sbaughone]

Good...he won because of Strahan, Tuck, and Osimenyora. GIMME MOOCH!!!!!

Yea, the Giants were in his ear telling him this wasn't a good situation b/c he wouldn't be able to pick his staff. We don't know that he was offered the job or not though. It's widely laughed at around the league that our staff is already in place before a HC. It's makes this job less attractive to candidates.

Let's get on w/ it and hire somebody. I do like Schwartz too, but i'd settle for Fassel...i guess. I agree though about the search. It's not been a smooth process.

Did we even have a potential HC candidate list prior to JG's leaving? College basketball AD's always have "list" of qualified young coaches to interview if there coach gets a promotion or whatever. VCU actually went above and beyond to bring together young asst coaches so they could get a jump on HC searches b/c they know that they are a mid major. This has produced jeff capel, anthony grant. It really seemed like we didn't do our homework-we didn't have a list.

Meeks is widely thought of as not being ready
Fassel is currently unemployed and can't get a job
Mariucci: we pulled this one out of the bag late in the process
Schwartz i like but as JS said himself to DS..."why are you interviewing me when my mentor is already on your staff"
Spags: Is thought of as being impressive

Anyways, let's make a hire.

[SFREDSKIN]

I think he read Sally Jenkins article last night.

Fassel has been the favorite all along, just hire him and get it over with.
