    Nothing like "doing their due diligence".

    All I care about is that we get healthy and add some major talent this off-season. Put your money where your mouth is, Bob!

    I guess all the "other candidates" didn't interview too well.

    WOW, what an extensive search. :rolleyes:

    Like the hire but can Uncle Bob stop treating his fans like complete morons. All this crap about searchs and how close the team is, such BS, the more he talks the more I get pissed.

    With the lock-out looming, it makes sense to act quickly.......... but not *this* quickly.

    McCain is reporting his interview with Kubiak is scheduled for Wednesday.

    :confused: There goes that stipulation.

    Nobody else was considered. I'd honestly be shocked to hear that they contacted one other person about the job.

    Bob has consistently lying out of his ass. It's appropriate that the Texans' logo is a bull because the teams owner is full of nothing but bull****.

    So much for getting out of their comfort zone or buddy system. Buddy system for the win!

    Was there ever any doubt that Phillips WOULDN'T be the guy?

    ABC says Wade confirmed it when talking to Bob Allen. McClain says that Wade is denying the report.

    Maybe Bob Allen misunderstood what Wade was saying when he talked to him.

    - or -

    Maybe McNair wanted to keep up the appearance that the Texans were being diligent in their search for DC and didn't want it getting out so soon that Wade's been hired. Wade accidentally spilled the beans and is now trying to deny it.

    I believe it doesn't apply for coordinator positions.
