Rumors are heating up a bit more that Drevno and Pep are pursuing other opportunities. And the Enos and Greg Roman smoke is billowing. If Harbaugh hands over the keys and doesn't meddle that is more important than who they hire. Roman is more of a pistol guy, with some Power I dimensions, which fits nicely withe Patterson.
The Canada hire would be a much better move to me, but this is a big step in the right direction compared to the current state.
Now, if they can kick to the curb the ST coach or whoever was coaching the Punt and Punt Returns groups all year, i'll be a little more happy.
