Kugler turns down TE coach job...

[mysticsoto]

Kugler Turns Down Job: A report from an Idaho newspaper says that former Lions tight end and offensive line coach Sean Kugler has turned down a chance to rejoin Dick Juaron in Buffalo. The report says he was offered the tight ends coaching position that is still currently being held by Mike Miller. He turned down the job to rejoin the staff at Boise State University.

Re: Kugler turns down TE coach job...

This is exactly what I didn't want to see...Jauron trying to bring in people b'cse he knows them. When have the Lions been known for having a great TE attack ? Marcus Pollard is over there now - but we know him b'cse he was good in Indy...who was there before him in Detroit? Kugler doesn't sound like anyone we would want...

Note to Jauron: Don't bring in people just b'cse you are friends with them!!!

You know who I think is a good TE coach? Pete Mangurian - from the Patriots...

I'm not saying he's likely available, but just pointing out that we need someone that might be like him!

Wasn't Mike Tice a TE? If he doesn't get a sniff at other positions I wouldn't mind bringing him in.

Doesn't matter. Reciving TEs are not a big "to do" in Fairchilds system. The RBs and the FB get the brunt of the work in the trenches.

Has he had a good TE in his systems since joining the pro ranks coaching?

He MIGHT come when he realizes Ft Erie is right over the border and Niagara Falls is very close. He and Moulds will be buds.

Re: Kugler turns down TE coach job...

I was listening to Hub Arkush of PFW on WGR last night. He said Fairchilds Offense would want a TE with speed who could find open areas. Everett is a complete mystery and the other 3 on our roster stink.

If we could find a couple vet OL in March, I could see the Bills adding a good TE on Day 1 of the draft.

I know this...Campbell is probably gone. Next year, he is set to make $1 million more than Euhus is making, and he definitely shows no production to deserve that. Euhus, Everett, and perhaps a low ranked, raw but speedy draft pick will likely be our TEs next season.

What about Pete Metzelaars?

I'm sure I'm not the only one who still miss him.

I agree Metzellars would be a solid choice for TE coach IMO. He made up for his physical short commings with heady play.

It's pretty bad when a guy like Kugler who is from Lockport,N.Y. doesn't want to come to Buffalo.What does that tell you about your Head Coachs ability to put a staff together.He took a college job instead.

He went there for a bowl game a few years back with the family and they all loved the place. Once he was offered a position there, they jumped on it. Good for him. That was a desired destination for the entire family.

But you go ahead and create your own imaginary scenerio to find a cheap reason to gripe.
