Don't blame him, he's walking into a gold mine of talent.

My point is why would they hire a guy who's only been a full time OC for a full season once in his career? And that was at the colllege level back in 2007. Why chose an unproven guy like him to run your NFL offense? It's a questionable and possibly risky hire for any NFL team to make.

I'm just actually happy to see an NFL team hire someone from the college ranks. Instead of hiring some retread HC/OC.

I mean, even if it was the Browns, you're taking that gig.

Does Quin have a relationship with Sark?

This seems like it's coming out of left field, but they've known for a while that Shannahan was leaving. Hiring somebody just 2 days after that crushing defeat means that he'd already made his mind up. I wonder if there were any official interviews.

Can't say I'm happy that he's leaving Alabama...but what the hell is Atlanta thinking? He was their best option?

Well, Atlanta's trophy case will stay empty a lot longer than anticipated

Not directly, but I'm sure he was on the phone with Pete Carroll.

Pete Carroll coaching tree? maybe even a little overlap while Quinn was with the Seahawks and Sark was still at UDub.

Yep, good thing he's escaping that talentless dumpster fire that is Alabama.

Because he's the OC? I swear some of you just say anything on here without actually thinking.

Crazy hire. I don't think he has any Shanahan in his coaching blood line right?
