So long, Samurai Mike?

From the Niners beat writer...

York does not commit to Singletary coaching next week.

Also reporting Niners will hire a GM next season. Wonder if they'll go for a full-control guy.

If this job opens up, I wonder how hard of a look Harbaugh takes at it.

Said that a couple of weeks ago, if Singletary is out watch the 9ers push hard for him.

[Mr. Scot]

They don't have a very realistic shot at Luck, though. It'd take a fairly hefty trade.

Yeah, but I don't think Harbaugh's basing any NFL move on that solely alone - it would be sad if he did. Besides, it's not as if Luck's his only QB success, he got Josh Johnson in the league.

Wasn't looking at it that way. Just thinking that even if we didn't get Harbaugh, we could still get Luck.

Singletary has great passion for the game, but he just seemed to inexperienced as a HC at times.

From the Jimmy Raye gaff to the QB shuffle. They never made half time adjustments and ever seem to have a game plan from week to week. They went out there and just tried to play "Their" game each week and they failed.

Great players rarely make great coaches.

Yup, Different Skill Set Required.

I was all in with Singletary when he was named HC, I thought his passion for the game would be passed down to his players and IMO it was to some extent but a HC also has to know the X's & O's and make good staffing decisions and that was something Singletary is/was clearly lacking.

If it doesn't work out in SF I hope he gets another HC job some day, but I think he needs to spend a couple years as a D-Coor, he definitely isn't ready to be a HC.

I'll take him here as d-coordinator

Just got the word out here, its official.

I hope it's Gruden. They love him in that area from his Oakland days. Leave Harbaugh to us
