There's a good reason EB has not sniffed a HC job, despite being minority status and the league's Rooney Rule.

I've heard that before, and apparently it's something Ben Albright brings up frequently.

(I haven't followed Albright that much in the past but maybe someone who has can elaborate)

Past discussion has been about his criminal record but McCoy seems to think it's more about what kind of person / coach Bieniemy is.

Obviously there is something looming in the background there that is keeping teams from signing him on...

...what is it?

Sounds like hes not the nicest guy to work for.  Probably belittles and demeans the players a lot.  

Yeah, sounds like he might be one of those old school coaches that is overtly abusive/negative. 

This adds up to why he hasn't been elevated to HC status. It would make a lot of sense.

I still need a more reputable source than a disgruntled malcontent. Pot and kettle situation is very possible and I would guess probable. 

He was a backup they leaned on after the Bills dumped him to get through injuries early in thr year if I remember correctly.

Meh, hardly definitive and given the source it's certainly not a 'fact' because Shadey said so lol

Does that mesh with Reid, though? Reid doesn't seem like that type.

He's right in at least one sense though. Bieniemy keeps getting interviewed but not hired. Gotta figure there is some reason for that.

Yep but again that source is suspect AF.

Is he abusive or just told McCoy to STFU? Catering to divas and being a butthole is not the same. I don't know, I just have more questions after this.

Edit: If it is the diva route then he will never be a HC because every billionaire owner is a giant diva...

It's hard to say. This is just one guy saying it. If more guys step forward and say the same thing publicly, I guess you have the answer.

Yeah, it could all just be sour grapes. But, there is something up about why EB hasn't been hired. If there were NO other minority coaches getting hired, I would lean towards good ol boy network but has happened a couple of times since EB was on the radar.

There is definitely something up.

Reasonable to question...

I know Ben Albright has been mentioned as somebody who's spoken about this. I haven't seen any of that but maybe others have.

Absolutely without a doubt. This is not definitive tho. Whatever it is it sounds like he doesn't play well with some and that includes Owners...

      I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50.

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
