Cancel that. Tom Pelisero reports the Broncos are making him their HC. All kind of local Blue Check mark people saying control of roster is the hang-up with Byron. He wants Baalke gone and Shad Khan, who has screwed up every management hire he has made here, wants to keep Baalke.

Jags had 3 finalists. Leftwich, Hackett and Eberflus.
Hackett and Eberflus have been hired by Broncos and Bears.

Now Arizona reporter says it's 99.9% sure that Adrian Wilson (Byron's choice for GM) will be hired by Jags.
Then New Orleans requests an interview with Byron
And earlier Schefter reported Jags were flying in Vic Fangio !!
If I'm Byron I much prefer Jax over New Orleans. You have tons of cap room and Trevor. Saints have terrible cap space and no QB.

Looking like it's going to work out.
Byron as HC
Wilson in as GM. Baalke out.
Now i'll actually be excited for FA and the draft.
The weird part is Jags can't hire Wilson (who is black) yet. They have to interview another outside minority candidate. That could be why things aren't being announced. Frankly, I think that part of Rooney rule could be waived, but big part of Rooney rule is to expose guys to process (and vice-versa).

Still no word. Latest from Dilla
"Honestly don’t think anyone knows. From what I see, there’s 3 rumors going around. I couldn’t tell ya which one is closest to accurate. So I’m chillin and waiting like the rest of y’all."
Local noon-sports reporter Ben Becker says Jags have scheduled Press Conference for Monday about Performance Center. Speculates it might also introduce new coach.

Interesting theory put out by one of radio guys...... what if Byron is waiting to see if Tom Brady retires? If Brady comes back he'll sign on for one more year in Tampa.

Seeing some of the interviews with Broncos coach Nate Hackett. I'm a little jealous.

Now Ian Rappaport is saying Rams OC Jerry O'Connell has entered the process with the Jags wanting to interview him as soon as Monday if Rams lose. He has worked with Baalke in the past. I'm not sure if Jags would have to wait 2 weeks (until after SB) if Rams win.

"Nobody wants to work with this gm we have....we'll keep looking.."
Good grief.
Go Gators!
With Rams win, the Jags now would have to wait 2 weeks to interview O'Connell. However, the are interviewing Rich Bisaccia today. Officially for HC gig, but since that is so discouraging, a few are hoping it's really a interview for special teams once they hire a coach.
