re: Can we get clarity on the OC situation

Pure speculation on my part, but it seems to me that Aranda likely had a view about whether Canada should stay or go and likely made it known during yesterday’s hectic negotiation to keep him. If I’m right about that hunch, it could completely have changed the OC dynamic. Something to consider.

I don't have any special, current knowledge, but I don't agree with your premise here. From what I have heard, Canada did not jell well with the entire staff. I think we are trying to help Canada find another job to offset our settlement, and let O go get an OC and offense that he really wants, and a coach that he can work with. I think he would take Briles, but the stink from Baylor is risky. He would love Sark or someone else from the Pete Carroll coaching tree. Don't be surprised if Bevell from Seahawks in an option within a week, or Morton from the Jets, but the latter appears to be Gruden's OC choice for the Raiders if reports are true.
