| Carroll convenes Seahawks' new staff
Pete Carroll will convene Seattle's new coaching staff together Monday for its first official staff meeting. So while the calendars may have been turned a month ago, it's Feb. 1 that really marks the start of the new year for Seattle. Carroll has assembled a staff that includes one of the league's most respected rushing game architects in Alex Gibbs and a passing game whiz kid of an offensive coordinator in Jeremy Bates. "I am really excited about it,[url=http://www.ngcommit.fr/air-max-pas-cher-homme/]air max pas cher homme[/url]," Carroll said of his staff while in Alabama last week. "I think we had an outstanding 'staff' season . it's a great group, and I feel very fortunate that we put it together like we have. "It's an excellent group of guys,[url=http://www.francebientraitance.fr/escarpin-louboutin-pas-cher/]escarpin louboutin pas cher[/url]." Convening the coaching staff also signifies that the upheaval of January is over. It was as tumultuous a month as the Seahawks have ever experienced save for the time moving trucks headed for Southern California in 1996. It began when Seattle interviewed Carroll at a time the head coaching position was still filled by Jim Mora,[url=http://www.ngcommit.fr/basket-nike-tn-pas-cher/]basket nike tn pas cher[/url], and after Carroll's hiring, it included wholesale turnover of Mora's coaching staff, most of whom were told of their exit with a message to clean out their offices on a Saturday. Changes like this are never easy in the NFL,[url=http://www.henri-rizzo-constructions.fr/category/chaussure-air-jordan-pas-cher/]chaussure air jordan pas cher[/url], and this one was inescapably difficult given the abruptness and severity of the change in which Mora was fired after one season. Feelings were bruised along with careers. That decision to fire Mora was announced on Friday, Jan. 8. Carroll was almost immediately identified as the likely replacement, but his hiring was not announced until Monday afternoon. By that time,[url=http://www.campingterreferme.fr/converse-enfant-pas-cher.html]converse enfant pas cher[/url], members of Mora's coaching staff were told not to come to the office Monday or Tuesday,[url=http://www.francebientraitance.fr/pigalle-louboutin/]pigalle louboutin[/url], the day Carroll was introduced. Most coaches found out their fate on Wednesday. Those assistants not under consideration to be retained were told to clean out their offices on Saturday. No face to face notification from the new coach. Just a pack up date. Defensive coordinator Gus Bradley and defensive line coach Dan Quinn were retained by Carroll. Offensive line coach Mike Solari was interviewed,[url=http://www.francebientraitance.fr/escarpins-louboutin-pas-cher/]escarpins louboutin pas cher[/url], but with Gibbs coming aboard as offensive line coach, that position was filled. Solari had a chance to stay on as tight ends coach but declined. He subsequently accepted a position as 49ers offensive line coach. Strength and conditioning coach Mike Clark was at the end of his contract with the Seahawks. He interviewed with the Browns, and then waited through 10 days of limbo as Carroll looked at alternatives,[url=http://www.spagnoloinregole.it/hogan-outlet-milano.html]hogan outlet milano[/url], interviewing USC strength and conditioning coach Chris Carlisle before ultimately deciding Clark wouldn't be back. This is the raw underbelly of the coach's life where a franchise's decision on a coach's tenure has a trickle down effect from offensive coordinators to quality control coaches to administrators. And after three weeks of upheaval,[url=http://www.ngcommit.fr/nike-tn-homme/]nike tn homme[/url], the Seahawks have a coaching staff in place that drew compliments from several NFL executives at the Senior Bowl, who wished to remain anonymous. While Carroll hired four assistants from USC, Bates and special teams coach Brian Schneider have NFL credentials. Schneider previously worked for the Raiders,[url=http://www.edsreadingroom.co.uk/category/mulberry-sale/]mulberry sale[/url], and Mora interviewed him a year ago when the coach was assembling his Seahawks staff. Secondary coach Jerry Gray from Washington is very well regarded within the league, someone Carroll expects to be a future head coach,[url=http://www.francebientraitance.fr/escarpin-louboutin-pas-cher-2/]escarpin louboutin pas cher[/url], and running backs coach Sherman Smith served as Washington's offensive coordinator under Jim Zorn. Seattle is expected to add Jeff Ulbrich as assistant special teams coach, a move first reported by ESPN on Friday. He is a former 49ers linebacker,[url=http://www.francebientraitance.fr/basket-louboutin-pas-cher/]basket louboutin pas cher[/url], someone who played with a dirt under the fingernails toughness. He is someone Mora wanted to look at hiring. Instead, he became one of the final pieces of Carroll's overhauled coaching staff. 相关的主题文章: [url=http://jscxlawyer.com/thread-760425-1-1.html]Brooklyn promotes assistant Jack Perri head coach after Jim Ferry reaches agreem[/url] [url=http://www.frogpix.de/details.php?image_id=850]Business Life Coach[/url] [url=http://www.thestrikepoint.com/index.cgi]Bradley says he'd be 'honored[/url] |
