[Dirty Sanchez]

Well he's never coached a down in the NFL...so who knows? He's riding the Tom Brady gravy train...so it's a crap shoot

[t-wizzle]

A shame for PSU. Was hoping he'd stay another year or two.

[greenhippo]

Was hoping that too.

[Slimpickens]

Was hoping that too.

Me too. PSU admin cant be happy.

[greenhippo]

No slight to him but I thought Texans would look for better....

[ebbearsfb1]

Hope he decides to stay.. but wish him well..

Schiano is great for recruiting and knows the area.. but his in game coaching leaves alot to be desired

[greenhippo]

Would have liked them to maybe bring Vic Fangio back or someone like Sean McDermott

[jjgold]

He took a ruined Penn St team and made them very competitive

Great win at Wisky last game of season that says it all

[ebbearsfb1]

Would love to see a coach come in who wants to be their for years.. but I know the paternos, bowdens, and osbournes of the world are hone

[InTheDrink]

Schiano had basically been positioning himself to get the job for at least the last ten years and the fact that his stock is low now is a beautiful thing. If it was when Ray rice came out of rutty he'd be a lock. Hope he doesn't get it now.

Like who? Wade, Norv, Lovie?

[greenhippo]

Like who? Wade, Norv, Lovie?

The two guys I mentioned. Adam Gase, Mark Dantonio are two more.

And you consider them much bigger names than O'Brien?

Horrible hire for the Texans if it comes to pass

[greenhippo]

All 4 of them yes.

[easyliving]

would be a horrible hire for the Texans. Their not a young team looking to build, their a team with a ton of talent that can get back into the playoffs next year. Their better off bringing in an experienced guy, its Texas they shouldn't have too much trouble bringing in a big name.

[slacker00]

It's the Chip Kelly effect. I don't know if it makes any sense, but just look at how Harbaugh, Carrol, etc are dominating.

[Seattle Slew]

Belichick's assistants have a great track record. Mangini, Crenel, Weis, McDaniels.

Bill O'Brien officially new coach of Houston texans.

[Vinnie Paz]

"Reached agreement"

[easyliving]

big mistake by the Texans, could've done alot better. Texans was probably the most appealing job out of all the ones available

[EaglesPhan36]

O'Brien is a smart hire. Pats pedigree and the team has the pieces in place to compete with a good coach. I'd expect him to name a starting QB from Day 1 and the offense will be 10x better than the shit they tossed out this year. Texans compete for the Division next year, they have all the pieces - just needed some fresh air on top.

[SportsMushroom]

nfl coaches on the dole dont have a job for a reason, they suck

bring in someone new, fresh, with a winner mentality instead of just being incestuous and recycling old nfl coaches


although i thought after that sandusky shit ped state and anyone associated with it would be tarnished, apparently people have forgotten already

[Mr KLC]

Romeo Crennel the possible new defensive coordinator. Would be a good pick up if Phillips doesn't stay on.
