Jimmy Sexton Sighting!!!
Quote:Of all the head coaching candidates the Jets have interviewed so far, only ex-Bills coach Doug Marrone has head coaching experience.
Marrone did some good things at Syracuse University and with the Bills, but he is not a sure-thing candidate. That is something most objective observers seem to get.
The Jets ought to be interested in Marrone on at least some level, because of his experience, as it relates to the rest of the coaches currently available. This doesn't mean, though, that he will win more with the Jets than Rex Ryan did.
Owner Woody Johnson has seemingly not locked in on Marrone as his next coach. Johnson and his consultants, Charley Casserly and Ron Wolf, are continuing to interview other candidates.
Anyway, among the varied, sometimes polarizing opinions about the job Marrone did in Syracuse and Buffalo, now comes a heater from one of Marrone's former assistant coaches, Bob Casullo. The former Jets tight ends coach appeared as a guest Monday on ESPN Radio Syracuse and said this:
"First of all, you guys know, I've told you guys this all along, that when he takes a job, he already has his plan in place for his next job. Let me say this to you: I've said this before -- self-centered, selfish, greedy. He'll get a job because there's not enough qualified people with head coaching experience to get these jobs. There's about nine or 10 guys out there that should be getting these jobs, and you're reshuffling an egomaniac, less-than-.500 coach. He has the greatest agent on the face of the Earth (Jimmy Sexton). He's got it going. The agent's got it going. Somebody's going to hire him. What did W.C. Fields (say)? There's a sucker born every minute. Am I not mistaken?
