Has anyone read this?? Marvin wanted to groom Hue for the HC job for the Bengals and give him the keys in two years. Mike Brown couldn't guarantee it because that's too far down the road. So Hue takes his stuff and heads over to the rival to prove a point?? Interesting and disappointing at the same time.
I guess one head coaching job in the hand is worth more than a "no promises" attitude from Mike Brown.
Personally, I don't blame Mikey B for passing - at this point in time. Sure Hue has some upside, but when you look at Cleveland, they'll likely fire him before two years is up anyways and Mikey can get him back at a bargain bin price as a twice failed head coach.
You gotta know that the gears in Mikey's head were turning overtime on this one.
