Speculation for JDR was all we had in the beginning so we thought it made sense.. Apparently he was interested by we turned him down.
Grathnam used us to get a raise happens.....
Several guys we asked to interview were blocked so we didn't talk to them at all. (interviews always don't mean hirings)
Dude at Ohio state just got that job and didn't want to leave which is commendable.
Capers apparently had other plans. (in Jacksonville now) but I don't believe we interviewed him but asked if he would interview.
All in all I don't think we have actually talked to too many of these prospects.. Some of the other names where interviewed during the HC search so not sure they can count as DC interviews.
We did a phone interview with JDR. We reached out to Capers. We made offers to 2 coaches, one of which was Grantham. We interviewed Pleasant and maybe a couple others. We requested interviews (that were blocked) with Aaron Glenn and Jeff Hafley. Then we ask permission to interview Anaruma. That kinda makes it look like he was pretty far down the list.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
