    Please make this not be true....Bills HC info

    I just spotted this post on Two Bills Drive....

    Vic Carucci is a guest on the Big O show on Boston's WEEI this afternoon. Just before they get into the Pats/Titans game, Glenn Ordway asks Vic what is up with the Bills search. Carucci says that the Fassell interview went "horrendously" bad! Ordway asks Vic to elaborate. Carucci says he can only speculate, but the issue revolved around money and the Bills current talent, namely Bledsoe.

    Apparently the Bills are adament about not going over the million dollar mark for a head coach, even though the going price inthe NFL is $2-mill-plus. Carucci also said that TD is looking for a coach who does not want to change personel, the suggestion being that if the Bills players aren't good enough, then TD failed at that as well!

    Fassell apparently laughed at whatthe Bills are offering for salary, and also upset Donahoe by telling him Bledsoe's a stiff!

    This is the worst possble news. Not only are the Bills shopping for a HC at Wal-Mart, but TD only wants a guy who agrees to use the current roster, including Bledsoe! So much for letting the new coach decide, eh?

    If this is true, then I expect to see Mike Mularkey or Charlie Weis brought as Head Coach for a few years at 900,000 a year and then if they are good, they would be gone for a bigger contract.

            I dont buy that story either.

            TD publically stated that they are willing to pay a coach market price.

              Follow this team for thirty plus years, and you will see that this is the way they do business.

              I expect no less from a team that is run by the book keeper in Detroit.

              I've been saying it all along...its about bucks.

                He doesn't hold back on players because of the cap, but he has ALWAYS held back on coaches. You notice the last few times, we have not hired a big name, big buck coach? Wade Phillips? Gregg Williams and even before Marv Levy...they were never paid much here. yeah, Ralph will splurge on the players, because he has to, but there is no cap for the coaches, so why would he?

                  I agree! It's sad, but it's true. And has always been this way. We either hire within the team or get a young, cheap coach.

                    The Bledsoe thing makes sense too. And if Fassel doesn't want him, man, it's pretty bad.

                      Is it that they don't want to pay market price, or they don't want to pay market price for Fassel?

                      Maybe there's no credibility to this story, or maybe Fassel insulted Bledsoe first so TD insulted him back with a lousy offer.

                        Uh, did ANY one actually hear this interview, or was it conducted personally for the one guy who says he heard it??

                        Carucci seems to be a stand up guy, and it would shock me if he actually said most of that, even if he thought it was factual.

                          Didn't this same team just back the Brinks truck up last season for a LB?


                          Maybe they just don't want to pay 2Mill for Fassell! They guy would be a good choice but it's not like he's Parcells or Gibbs! Not even close!
                          Resign our own guys!
