I don't think so. Blank is committed to winning and from all accounts is a great owner to work for. The city sucks, but I dont' think the organization is in as bad a shape as some believe. The right coach could turn them around in a couple of years. I'm not saying Pete is the right guy, though.


The problem you have though is trying to win over the fans and exorcise Vick. Fans are still wearing his jersey to the games. Trying to compete against Vick and the culture there is going to suck a lot. Vick represented the Atlanta fan community and they are going to feel that someone needs ot take his place.

Why?



He's making 2.78 million, he's a hero at USC, and he does much less work than he would in the NFL.

Oh, there's no way I'd leave SC for that job, but if the Sad Diego job comes open soon again, that'd be attractive.


I'd agree that if he leaves that would probably be where he goes.

Why would he leave USC? He doesn't have to contend with a salary cap there.
