Spiff Posted January 9, 2004 Author Share Posted January 9, 2004 Atlanta Falcons hire Jim Mora Jr. the DC of the 49ers. This means the Bears are now favourites to get Nick Saban. Not unless they want to fork over 4-5 mill per season. And I don't see that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 Also Anton Babchuk got called up from Norfolk, and is playin tonite vs Calgary. That ought to be interesting. They love Babchuk and Seabrook as being future #1 line Dmen. And they need all of the help that they can get! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 Just read where MSU's big recruit PG Brandon Cotton has left the program and is looking to transfer elsewhere. He missed the first 6 weeks of the season and only got to play 16 minutes over 3 games and was pissed because he didn't want to have to "earn" playing time.

That definitely hurts......Speaking of recruits...Is there any word on IU's recruit Josh Smith? Is he still planning on going to Bloomington (Oh please, oh please, oh pretty please), or is he leaning NBA now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No word yet. You won't start to hear that stuff until after the post season of the NCAA's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Looks like Blache may still be around next year as Bears DC.... from Benmaller.com  If Ted Cottrell rejects the Vikings, Tice will try to interview Chicago's Greg Blache. The Bears turned down the Vikings' request for permission to talk to Blache pending naming of a new head coach. The Bears said Blache might be available for an interview Monday.  Also this:  LSU coach Nick Saban told the the Times-Picayune in New Orleans he will take the weekend to "weigh some options" regarding the Bears job but that he has not met with Angelo. "Jerry Angelo and I are very good friends [and] he visits me in Baton Rouge on occasion," Saban said. "I'm very pleased and happy to be at LSU, and I know they are working hard to try and make things comfortable there for us." If Nick Saban chooses LSU after hearing the Bears' offer, they likely would turn their attention to Patriots defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel or Rams defensive coordinator Lovie Smith, both of whom interviewed last week. I think "weigh some options" means convince his wife... He's been moveing around every 4 years for the bast 15 - 20 years... she thinks he has a great situation... Not that he doesn't, but he's won an NCAA championship, he wants to win a Super Bowl. Give him time he'll convince her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't get Saban, Lovie Smith should be the next coach of the Chicago Bears. He's very tight with Jerry Angelo and I'm suprised that he didn't get the Atlanta job, but Jim Mora Jr. must hav really wowed Atlanta's braintrust ova there.

What has Lovie smith done to deserve a head coaching job... I'm not trying to attack anyone, but THE RAMS DEFENSE???. Have you seen it, it was terrible last year, serviceable this year. I don't see why he is such a hot commoditie.. But maybe I'm missing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
