COACH CAROUSEL

@CamInman: #49ers DL coach Jim Tomsula is a candidate for head-coach openings, CBS Sports reports.

@AlbertBreer: Whisenhunt would make sense for Bills too since he and Doug Whaley were together in Pittsburgh for a bunch of years.

can't really see Tomsula as an NFL HC. I mean he is a cool dude but comon

Why not? I think he'd make a great HC. I know it's different, but he has experience from being a HC in NFL Europe and also won a championship! He has better qualifications than most other candidates.

This. Guy seems like terrific head coach material. As long as he learned from Singletary's mistakes and surrounded himself with strong coordinators, he could be a damn fine head coach, exhibits tremendous leadership ability, is universally respected by his players. I'd hate for the 49ers to lose him.

@SI_PeterKing: Happy Valley alert: I hear Bill O'Brien is strongly considering interviewing with an NFL team.

Make it happen, that could be Roman's only ticket out of town.

Team's got a boner when they saw Tomsula's winning percentage of 100%

Tomsula might want to be a DC for Gamble but I doubt he becomes HC unless they can land an absolutely amazing OC and DC because Tomsula said it himself when he prepped for the final game after Singletary, he'd let the other coaches do what they want because he didn't want to get in their way.

I wonder if holmgren is interested in coaching, and if any team would want him. I'm guessing he would have a problem since I doubt any team will give him full personnel control.

@EdwerderESPN: I asked Mike Holmgren about a return to coaching. "If anyone is interested, I'll listen.'' Holmgren doesn't seem entirely done with football

@MattBarrows: This could change at any moment, but for now #49ers OC Greg Roman has not been asked to interview for any head coach openings.

Oh well there that is. I hope he's willing to have a gm.

Jim Tomsula has the best winning percentage of any head coach in the NFL.

LOL.

for some reason I just dont think he is as football smart overall, as like a Harbaugh or Gruden

@AdamSchefter: Buffalo has asked for permission to interview Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy for its HC job.
