Yahoo and Nancy Gay confirmed it...[url=http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=AiB.TL_xX9E1w7hL4lSdT6BDubYF?slug=ap-49ers-mccloughan]Yahoo

Wow, so this is actually happening.

Adam_Schefter: With McCloughan sidelined, 49ers will lean heavily on director of player personnel Trent Baalke and director of pro personnel Tom Gamble.

It's just like the Mariucci firing, Yorks think he was considering a move or making them think he was to get a raise/extension!!!!

If i remember correctly Mooch wanted full control of player personnel. Thats what started the friction.

I think it was the reports that he was entertaining other possibilities or at least was being considered for them (Notre Dame?).

Adam_Schefter: Rare that a team - no less one with two first-round picks - makes a change five weeks before draft. But 49ers are said to be ready for it.

McClueless leaves for the more clueless...why can't we use this as an excuse to get a real football guy like Cowher or Dungey.

.......wtf!!!

Adam_Schefter: Scot McCloughan not out yet as Niners GM. If he were, team would issue a press release. And it sounds like no release is forthcoming.

Prob because they need to come up with a strategic plan for the draft and free agency on how they will be dividing up the roles.

He'll be out.

CBS 5: SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) The San Francisco 49ers are cutting ties with general manager Scot McCloughan over a personal matter not related to team issues, AOL Fanhouse reported Thursday.

McCloughan told FanHouse via text message, "I'm fine and moving forward." The report said he would not elaborate.

The report said the decision was by mutual agreement and followed a meeting Wednesday between McCloughan, team president Jed York and several members of the 49ers' front office.
