who all from the previous coaching staff has been fired?

[rayzor]

Just got to thinking about this. since Tepper spent a beaucoup of money for that staff i'd think his desire would be to keep as many around so the money isn't wasted. 

probably most of us would prefer we get rid of most of them, but there has to be some good hires in there that just received poor guidance. maybe it would help out the incoming HC to not have to start from scratch getting his staff.

who would you feel ok or good about keeping around?

No one aside from the people who were fired when Reich was fired as far as I know. Tepper is holding them hostage until they hire the next head coach.

I mean at this point I'd be surprised if it wasn't Canales, as much as I wanted MacDonald. 
 

With Canales its pretty obvious we would keep defense intact, he would probably keep Tabor too.

No one should have stayed. Tepper is willing to piss away HC money every year but he wants to keep the not so all star staff to save dough? I though that was his one positive, the ability to keep throwing cash around endlessly?

After 2023 none should still be here for many reasons. First off it was a poorly built staff anyways, in reality it was just an expensive waste of a try. Matching a HC to that staff like Wilks had in Arizona I am guessing will have much of the same outcome. Hire a HC and let him pick his staff, not the other way around. More staff infighting nect year would be another layer of dysfunction to add to the heap.

i wouldn't have a problem with keeping the D intact as much as possible and Tabor as well. Let Canales do what he wants with the O. i can't see canales having a problem with the D staff staying intact as long as there is no discord with or within the D staff. for them it would probably be good not to have to pick up and try to find another job and move their families and they probably wouldn't find that kind of pay anywhere else.

TBD until a new coach comes in.

It’s pretty normal to keep people around and let the new boss (bosses) decide who stays and who goes.

The people still here get to deal with David Tepper.  Being fired is a blessing here

I said something similar when Reich was fired; "a mercy killing."

I wouldn't be surprised if Reich said, "thank you" when Tepper delivered the news.

Frank played this about the best he could.  Half a season and walks away with a sack of cash…nice

Sir Purr. That's about it. 

new HC should be able to hire his own staff.  Build a culture and environment.  A new HC shouldn't be given a staff from a prior failed era for the billionaire owner to save a couple bucks. 

we just heard about the GOT nature of this org during this last era.  In no way should a new HC be saddled with a bunch of dudes he doesn't want from it.   That going to keep smart HC away.

clean slate.  We already aren't doing it with Morgan and that section.
