    Wonder if there are any college coaches in the Socal area who might be interested. Might be a good move for a coach if his school is under NCAA investigation. Now that recruiting is over it might be worth considering.

    The rumour is that Urban likes to hang glide and loves the view from above the Cove at La Jolla. :)

    Urban could go 10-2 at Fla next year and he is still a god in Gainesville...

    Marty went 14-2 in Diego and got fired......

    Amazing, 14-2 regular season and he's fired. Marty puts San Diego back in the NFL better teams and he's fired.

    Wow

    A coach with a 14-2 record is fired and a GM with this record isn't...

    Is there a luckier person alive than Matt Millen? Here's a great stat about the Lions. SInce the 1957 season the Lions have had more new stadiums than playoff victories!!!

    "Is there a luckier person alive than Matt Millen?"

    The best job in the history of American employment has got to be the GM position of the Lions and it's not even close.

    Look at the longevity the totally inept Russ Thomas enjoyed.
