- 0:26Speaker 1: continuing to pursue whomever will be the person who replaces
- 0:31Speaker 1: Dennis Allen on a permanent basis. And what's interesting is
- 0:36Speaker 1: it seems pretty clear that if we're all paying attention,
- 0:40Speaker 1: there is there is a favorite, and I think we
- 0:42Speaker 1: all we can all agree that favorite right now is
- 0:44Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn. And sometimes you'll hear me say, you know,
- 0:48Speaker 1: people will tell you the story, sometimes not telling you
- 0:50Speaker 1: the story. I was an old Mike Mike d Line.
- 0:54Speaker 1: Mike would say that they're not gonna write. They're not
- 0:55Speaker 1: gonna write the story for you, but they're telling. If
- 0:57Speaker 1: you're paying attention, Uh, they got right for you. But
- 1:02Speaker 1: I love Mike. I missed Mike d but when Drew
- 1:08Speaker 1: Brees goes out openly and says that Aaron Glenn is
- 1:15Speaker 1: a leader of men and he's his choice, and Dan
- 1:17Speaker 1: Campbell spoke the way he did before the season ended, Loo,
- 1:21Speaker 1: there was the report that Loomis would hire quote someone
- 1:24Speaker 1: that he knows. The first name mentioned was Aaron Glenn.
- 1:28Speaker 1: ESPN has a piece up today with Jeremy Fowler and
- 1:32Speaker 1: Dan Graziano where they're kind of doing a point counterpoint
- 1:35Speaker 1: back and forth a format, and both of them say
- 1:39Speaker 1: that they believe Aaron Glenn is the guy in New Orleans.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Jeremy Fowler wrote, I'll read this. The Saints was taking
- 1:45Speaker 1: a low key approach, with sources telling me that as
- 1:48Speaker 1: of Wednesday afternoon, their candidate list hadn't grown past lines
- 1:52Speaker 1: defensive cordinator Aaron Glenn, Eagles dolphinsive coordinator Kellen Moore, Bill's
- 1:57Speaker 1: Joe Brady Dolphins defense Corninatornthony Weaver, current interim coach Aaron Rizzy,
- 2:02Speaker 1: Giants offense coordinator Mike Kafka, and Frabel And you say that,
- 2:07Speaker 1: and then today we find out the Saints have formally
- 2:08Speaker 1: requested an interview with Cliff Kingsbury. So that list is growing.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Fowler also mentions that Mike McCarthy could have interest in
- 2:18Speaker 1: the Saints job. Now, Mike McCarthy, if he gets fired,
- 2:21Speaker 1: will I have interest in any job? So naturally he's
- 2:24Speaker 1: not going to take anything off the table, but he
- 2:26Speaker 1: says Fowler writes agreed. He writes Glenn still seems like
- 2:31Speaker 1: the favorite, but he could have options. Graziano leads his
- 2:36Speaker 1: piece by saying, agreed that Glenn seems like the favorite
- 2:38Speaker 1: of New Orleans and then everything else after that. So
- 2:41Speaker 1: everything is leaning toward Aaron Glenn being the guy. And
- 2:43Speaker 1: I've shared my thoughts on this, and again it's not
- 2:46Speaker 1: a My feeling on Aaron Glenn being the Saints head
- 2:48Speaker 1: coach is very very very unfair to Aaron Glenn. I'm
- 2:51Speaker 1: being so abundantly clear about that. I am not interested
- 2:54Speaker 1: in anyone who has any ties to the Peyton Breeze era.
- 2:57Speaker 1: That is not the route that I think they should get,
- 3:01Speaker 1: because it's I think it's too tempting with Mickey Loomas
- 3:03Speaker 1: still in there to continue to try to run it back,
- 3:05Speaker 1: to try to chase that ghost and recapture what you had.
- 3:08Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn might be awesome, and he could be awesome
- 3:10Speaker 1: in New Orleans. You might get this job, but I
- 3:12Speaker 1: am not interested in seeing them try to recreate the
- 3:15Speaker 1: Peyton Breeze era again, because you don't have the two
- 3:18Speaker 1: most important people, which are Peyton Breeze. Anyway, for whatever
- 3:24Speaker 1: it's worth, something called bookies dot Com has I guess
- 3:31Speaker 1: these would be hypothetical odds. I don't know if you
- 3:33Speaker 1: can actually bet on this, Like, I don't know if
- 3:34Speaker 1: any of the sportsbooks actually allow you to bet on
- 3:37Speaker 1: coaching odds. But this was updated twenty four hours ago.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Saints head coaching odds they got Joe Brady is the
- 3:42Speaker 1: betting favorite at plus four hundred, followed by Kellen Moore
- 3:46Speaker 1: at plus five twenty five, then Drew Brees at plus
- 3:48Speaker 1: six hundred. I don't know what idiot keeps spreading that
- 3:50Speaker 1: rumor on the I keep getting asked by people, Hey,
- 3:52Speaker 1: there's Drew Brees. No, Drew Brees will be the coast. No, like,
- 3:57Speaker 1: who is spreading this rumor? Why do I keep getting
- 4:01Speaker 1: Can you? Either of you help me? Have you like
- 4:03Speaker 1: you've seen this? Yes, not as much as you, But
- 4:06Speaker 1: I have seen it, and I have no idea where
- 4:08Speaker 1: it can Where did this start? I don't live in
- 4:10Speaker 1: the internet all day, so I don't know. But some
- 4:13Speaker 1: idiots started a rumor that Breeze is going to be
- 4:15Speaker 1: the coach, and a lot of gullible people apparently believe
- 4:17Speaker 1: it because I keep getting asked, No, Drew Brees ain't
- 4:21Speaker 1: gonna be the coach. It's such a brain. This isn't
- 4:25Speaker 1: Jackson State hiring famous Dion Sanders. It's the New Orleans Saints,
- 4:30Speaker 1: the billion dollar organization, not hiring Drew Brees just because
- 4:34Speaker 1: he played football there. Come on, like if Drew wants
- 4:45Speaker 1: to come be like an assistant to the quarterbacks coach,
- 4:50Speaker 1: like when Jarry Evans was hired as an assistant offensive
- 4:54Speaker 1: like an in like an intern with the offensive line
- 4:58Speaker 1: to kind of get his feet wet in there and
- 5:00Speaker 1: and then maybe be a line okay, assistant to the
- 5:03Speaker 1: assistant to the offensive line coach. Like, sure Breeze can
- 5:07Speaker 1: come in and do that. But Bray's quit doing TV
- 5:10Speaker 1: because he was tied of the travel think will go
- 5:12Speaker 1: be an NFL head coach anyway, then Bobby Slog, then
- 5:20Speaker 1: David Shaw, then Anthony then Aaron Glenn. Although at plus
- 5:25Speaker 1: one thousand, so Joe Brady's got the best odds. According
- 5:27Speaker 1: to bookies dot com, Aaron Glenn's got the seventh best odds,
- 5:31Speaker 1: So the odds makers maybe don't think so much, But
- 5:33Speaker 1: everyone around this thing seems to be saying all signs
- 5:36Speaker 1: point to Aaron Glenn will continue to follow
