Davin joseph is one of the few positive signs of 2011

He almost becomes a negative with his refusal to sign with the Bucs unless Trueblood was retained.

I don't like players dictating who else we have to keep...
that opens up a whole new slew of problems – he is good but not Kobe good.

You know what kills me?
All this talk about getting an old coach like its a bad thing. See what a young coach got us. We are pacified with flashes of good during the Raheem/Dominik era….. We need a veteran coach that can bring in great coaches with him.. old or young and for some strange reason after 3 or 4 years and this “old coach” leaves for some reason, we have capable coaches to at least be an interim.
ALL ABOARD THE TRENT RICAHRDSON TRAIN!!!
Agree
I think it’s even pretty ridiculous that people are looking 3-4 years down to road. There is more than enough work to be done on this team where we really need to simply focus on next year. We need to turn this around ASAP.
Agreed, weren't the Bucs 3-13; 10-6; then 4-12
Heck, look at what a “young” “new” HC did in SF- Harbaugh led the 49ers from 7 wins to 13 this year.

I have a feeling it's going to come down to Marty & Sherman
personally, I’d rather see Marty. Age is only a number people.
He's certainly an underwhelming choice
but I’m not sure he’s as bad a choice as most people believe; I wouldn’t put much stock in his performance at Texas A & M, I never would’ve figured him to be a successful college coach from the get go. There is a massive difference between NFL coach and College Coach. I mean how many kids are going to be overwhelmed on a recruiting trip by Mike Sherman?
I dont care if its Sherman, Marty, Phillips or whoever. Just get it done and improve from last year.
With an experience coach and capable staff i highly doubt we go 4-12 and get blown out as many times and by who we got blown out by.
ALL ABOARD THE TRENT RICAHRDSON TRAIN!!!
I agree
I’m getting really annoyed by this coaching search. Glazers…“Just get it done!” I want Wins I don’t care who the coach is as long as we are winning!!
So , the ad should read...
Only coaches who want to win need apply. OK. That includes about everybody. After the Morris experiment, it should be clearer than ever that it DOES matter who the coach is. Winning is predicated on building a succesful coaching regime that instills competence, discipline and demands professionalism from the players. Don’t put the cart before the horse.
What i mean is that pretty much all of these coaches that are available are similar. Apples vs Oranges
No clear cut best guy out there. And all im saying im confident in whoever they choose and they probably are already leaning towards someone in mind. I just say hurry up and make the decision.
ALL ABOARD THE TRENT RICAHRDSON TRAIN!!!
Please no Sherman
We need to atleast bring in Zimmer for a interview
by TampaBayAllTheWayFromCaliforni-A on Jan 10, 2012 10:05 AM EST via mobile reply actions
I like Zimmer also
but must get a top OC. Zimmer is very deserving of a shot and what do we have to lose after this season.
Something to build on
I think hiring Schotzy makes perfect sense. There are a number of columns across the spectrum detailing his attributes so I won’t go into that. I said yesterday looking at this hire as a transitional step it makes sense. I’ll go further and suggest they attempt to convince Chud (OC at NC) to make a lateral move and come work under a legend of the game with the caveat that, considerng Schotzy’s age, the HC job would be an attainable goal depending on his performance. Then, juice up that competition by offering Kirby Smart (DC at ALA) to be our DC and compete for the HC job. Schotzy could transition into the GM position in time. Competition breeds excellence.
An OC or DC coming here with a Schottenheimer HC hire...
leaves you in a perfect position to take over when he leaves. Not only do you get the great opportunity to display your coordinator talents, but the fact is Marty will not coach forever, and would allow a smoother transition for a HC promotion without turning the organization upside down.

Entice Kirby
Wecan pay him more money. I read he is making $750k/yr. Plus paint the picture of him tutoring under a great coach in Marty for a few years, then becoming his successor?! It really is a great opportunity.
by gmaz1 on Jan 10, 2012 12:52 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
Kirby gives off the impression that he is waiting for a legit head coaching job. Not a try-out head coaching job.
He’s waiting for the same opportunity that Charlie Strong got at Louisville. Kirby is basically a coach in waiting and doesn’t need to be one at another place.
Exactly my point
The names may change but imagine an orderly succession of head coaches with this franchise. Not these deals in the dead of the night that ransoms our future or the sudden departure of Dungy after building a contender.
I would love for that happen
If we hired OC or DC that eventually could become the successor to the next coach would be great because that would mean that would atleast be some sort of success if the entire staff is still left after a HC departure
by TampaBayAllTheWayFromCaliforni-A on Jan 10, 2012 12:10 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
That is definitely one advantage to Marty.
He could bring in lateral move OC and DC, because they know they could get their chance soon. And a big thing, for me, is Marty’s ability to change the culture. Similar to Dungy, Marty can bring a passion to the team. Getting them to take pride in themselves, the team, and this game. And he can be the disciplinarian this team desperately needs.

That's what I was thinking.

If we get Marty, Jackson was a RB coach under him in washington.
He helped Flacco out as a rookie, and made Jason Campbell look like a decent QB.
Oderint dum metuant
I'm fully on board the Schottenheimer train
What may intrigue the Bucs is Schottenheimer’s record. With a career mark of 200-126-1 in 21 seasons with four teams, he has just 22 fewer NFL victories than the 35-year-old Bucs franchise.
It seems like he’s everything we need: an old school no nonsense guy, a disciplinarian, all about the fundamentals, a coaching tree that’s practically a redwood, and a proven winner. I don’t care that he’s 68- I care that he’s interested in coming here to coach our team. I’m in.
With the 5th pick of the 2012 NFL draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers select....
Im on the marty train as well

Attention Bucs new re-tread on the market
all aboard the Hue Jackson train, when does he interview?
by bucfanlostiniowa on Jan 10, 2012 2:56 PM EST reply actions
Hue Jackson as OC under Schottenheimer
Heck yes!!! Draft Trent Richardson, and bring in a Defensive Coord.
by BUCSwillDOMINATE on Jan 10, 2012 3:25 PM EST up reply actions
I'd take Hue as an OC
On 1 condition bring in some G.D. Speed!

Would Marty
Bring his son in as an OC?
by GoBuxGo on Jan 10, 2012 3:52 PM EST via iPhone app reply actions
I just hope we are the first to hire a HC
Then our new coach will have an advantage going after the OC DC and asst coaches he wants.
I am officially down for getting rid of Tanard Jackson.
This guy done wifed up a porn star got her pregnant and she just got busted for prostitution. SMH i want him gone just because of that! No wonder he played so soft this year smh lol.
ALL ABOARD THE TRENT RICAHRDSON TRAIN!!!
I cant believe it smh im really done with him. Get him outta here.
ALL ABOARD THE TRENT RICAHRDSON TRAIN!!!
Ahhh... This topic is exactly why Tjack should be fired; let me jokingly explain
At the last debacle, where I bet $1500 against ATL, figuring Rah and his cronies would put a fight, I went on a rampage. I came on here at the top of the 4th and wrote “I’d rather smoke crack and prostitute my wife out than watch these bums, see ya next year” -written in stone.
Well guess what, Tjack beat me to the punch lmao!!!! haha (but seriously I don’t smoke crack but pot certainly doesn’t get your broad on the streets… just sayin yo)
Ehm, I can't find any credible outlet reporting this anywhere
The only thing I can find is some gossip site with a year-old ‘story’.
Even if it’s true, who cares?
I want him gone because he forgot how to takle,
I cussed him this year almost as much as i did olson
Now that I could get behind
Though that’s another body you need to replace. I’d at least wait to see if he can learn to tackle again this offseason.
What ticks me off more than anything
is I remember the player he once was. A hard hitting playmaker, he did make some plays this year but the negatives outweighed the positives by far. when he f#@%ed up he really f#!2ed up
I'd let him have this off season and training camp before I go off and cut the guy.
He hasn’t had anything to do with the team for over a year, and to get thrown into the fire like he did and expect him to be what he was before is unfair to him. I know he did it to himself, but he’s still go talent and is useable here.
Where the heck is Keyser?
hope your right
maybe he would have played better if everyone around him didnt quit, or maybe it was coaching, hell who knows. You may have convinced me to give him another chance
Plus we cant upgrade everyone
We have to be at peace with the fact that not every player will be a superstar.
by Carlitin1988 on Jan 10, 2012 7:33 PM EST via Android app up reply actions
We got the salary cap to bring in some names
Im thinkin one of our safeties has to go though. In good form, Jones and Tjack are the same player . We got two box safeties and we probably need to get a smaller but faster coverage/ball hawk proto. I think we’re big on the back end but i could be wrong. Tjack has a lil coverage in him, so idk, maybe we wait and see how he progresses into the offseason
I think it's a pretty fine line between being a porn star and a prostitue anyway
I mean, they have sex for money. That’s kinda the definition of prostitution. Not really sure how doing it on camera is legal.
Anyway, I don’t care what a player does in their personal life. He just needs to re-learn how to tackle or he definitely needs to go.

So...
Do we know of any possible coordinators that could possibly be linked to Schotty? Or some he might of used in the past that may be available? It seems more and more likely that Schotty will be our best option available
by TampaBayAllTheWayFromCaliforni-A on Jan 10, 2012 4:34 PM EST via mobile reply actions
Hue Jackson has previously coached under him
and I’m not sure if he gets another HC gig immediately. Schotty for 3 years with Jackson groomed to take over would be great.
You know
It’s a sad statement on how far the Bucs have fallen that we’re debating the merits of 68 year old Marty Schottenheimer as a coach.
Looks like Marty ball is coming to tampa and hes bringing his son to be OC.
ALL ABOARD THE TRENT RICAHRDSON TRAIN!!!
