Plus he was glowing about Ced and Fisher last TC. The only plus about Willie i can think of is he is supposedly McNally's assistant...
Same here but after PA i guess i am not very picky lol

I think that at age 74, coach McNally is well "past his prime" for full time duty, but I wouldn't mind him being used for scouting and consulting resource. Willie is interesting, it's been well documented about his desire to help the team in any capacity. People reaching out should not be overlooked. Even though Willie has no formal coaching experience in the league, I'd like to see him offered some sort of role, perhaps OL quality control? Gotta start gaining some experience, somewhere.
Might be time to look at the college ranks. Programs like Wisconsin, Stanford, LSU, and others turn out successful NFL OLmen utilizing a Pro-Style offense. OL coaches from those type of programs might transition well into the NFL coaching ranks.
Feel the same way about both McNally and Willie, both would be good to have around but i don't necessarily want
either one to be the head guy right now especially Willie as he has no experience coaching.
Arkansas is another program to look at along with the ones you listed. Wouldn't surprise me if Lazor is looking at
college coaches as i have not seen any names being floated around besides the home guys we have spoken of.
