I dont know why the mods feel the need to delete all baalke threads he is still relevant and all of his miscues need to be discussed. Jay Glazer reporting Chip Kelly knew Trent Baalke was undermining him in recent weeks. #49ers Here is a full transcript of Glazer's comments, followed by video. He's learned from the Philly thing. I talked to him last night, I've talked to him for the last few days. When he got brought in there by Jed York, here's what happened. For weeks and weeks and weeks, he's known that Trent Baalke has been trying to undermine him and get him out. And other people said, go in there and defend yourself. And he's kinda learned from the Philly thing, I'm not gonna do that. I'm just gonna go, I'm gonna coach, I have my chance. And he really thought that, like the Colin Kaepernick thing like you said, that locker room never fell apart, and we were talking about that on presidential debates. And that locker room didn't fall apart, so you're right, he did a phenomenal job. I don't think he saw it coming, well he told me last night, he didn't see it coming that badly. But here's a guy, in Trent Baalke, who, he has been controversial because of his role in the Jim Harbaugh affair. Went back to Singletary before that. Jim Tomsula. And then I reported yesterday on FOX NFL Sunday that two years ago, they were hiring Adam Gase for that job instead of Jim Tomsula. They were hiring Adam Gase. John Lynch knows, he was back in Denver, packing his stuff up to go to San Francisco, and at the last second, Trent Baalke went to the owner and completely undercut it. And Gase, I talked to Gase about it, and he is still angry and bitter about it. So, 49er fans could have had Adam Gase this entire time, if there wasn't so much politics that went on inside that organization. So, the politics are gone, Trent Baalke's out of there, obviously, Chip is out of there. Chip is saying to me last night, I'll go be an offensive coordinator somewhere. He wants to be a football guy.

I found an interesting article... I think this article sums up the 49er organization in a nutshell. The hiring of Kyle and Lynch is Jed York's way of *coaching* the 49ers back to the heyday of Harbaugh's championship reign, I guess, without Harbaugh's smash mouth offense - and more to the WCO which seems to be more to Jed's liking. Anyway, thought it was an interesting read.

Basically, Jed York wants to be the coach of the team, but doesn't have the knowledge or understanding of the game to do so. So if he can get a guy to be an extension of him on the field, plus the actual ability to tell players how to line up and tackle and such, it's a win. That's more important than having the best coach possible, as letting Harbaugh depart for Michigan demonstrated.
