Colletto Out? Lions Giving Colletto A Look
Our prediction that OL coach Jim Colletto is gone is close to coming true apparently. Michigan Live is reporting that Colletto is interviewing with the Detroit Lions for their OL opening. The news is not being received well on the Pride of Detroit blog. One man’s trash is another man’s … well trash. Look for the spin on this … that Colletto was looking for “new opportunities.” Dorrell is probably allowing the man to look for another job first before firing him like he has has so many other assistants.
Colletto was a bad hire in the first place, and Dorrell was again impatient in allowing his assistants (Svoboda, Colletto) to “grow” - while he expects us to give him time and patience. Whatever. HT to Nestor at Bruinsnation for the tip.
In other news … Parcells retires and Carroll’s name comes up yet again. No doubt he won’t go to work with a controlling owner, but too bad Kiffin bit on the Raider job so quickly. Ha!
