Just so you guys know my contract with CCU is up May 1st. I can come coach after that. Might have to wait til 2012, so hang onto chilly for one more year.
not a news source. speculation from a random internet commenter somewhere. daily norseman maybe.
-------
Adam S just reported on ESPN that Zygi was not happy with what transpired this afternoon. "Zygi was instrumental in Randy returning to MN". (Remember also, Zygi really wanted Randy when he bought the team but Red MC dumped him before the deal iirc)
and he just tweeted it: Those who know Zygi Wilf say Vikings owner is angry his team plans to waive the player that he wanted, and worked to bring back, to Minn.

IF Chilly were to get fired, say tomorrow, , Leslie Frazier is the obvious interim head coach choice. Which would be nice. Because we'd see whether or not he could handle the job first before giving him a long term deal (as in, Chilly gets fired at the end of the season and Frazier gets a 3-4 year deal to be head coach)
I'm not convinced on Frazier. I'd rather us go big with someone like Cowher or someone.
ooooh, reading around the interwebz, if Chilly acted beyond his authority here, Zygi can fire him for cause and get out of his contract.

I'm with you 100%. Cowher is the guy I want most.
Gruden or even Billick would be fine if Cowher wont do it. I dont think Dungy wants to coach anymore, but he'd be a great choice as well.
It's funny in StarTribune land. When people comment on a story, you can click yes/no whether you agree with their comment. Right now the Fire Chilly comments are getting about 95% agreement.
Gruden has expressed his desire to have a chance to coach the vikes during telecasts. I'm assuming he'd jump at the chance. Billick - I have no idea but I know Moss loves him. Cowher - I would think if he ever wanted to coach again, he'd like to come into a situation with as much talent as we have. Zygi might be willing to throw a lot of money at a guy like him.
“This decision was made based on what we thought was in the best interests of the Minnesota Vikings, both in the short and long term,” said Head Coach Brad Childress. “We wish Randy the best as he moves forward in his career.”
the scenario I am hoping for has Zygi in meetings and finding ways to keep Randy and dump Chilly....not Chilly releasing statements through the team website.
