Continue to expect no namers at HC with average stays of 3 years. Each time he "fires" an HC, fan loyalty will be renewed and blind hope will soar again, thus the Yorks take home profits will always be what they expect and ultimately only care about

last time coaches were hired the old man was the one running s**t. Jed looks to have the fire his uncle did and he advises him heavily. im excited by the coming changes. he mentioned the patriots and Eddie D as advisors. i couldnt think of two better organizations to get ideas from than Crafts Pats and Eddies Niners.

last time coaches were hired (singletary and co.) jed was in control...just saying

that was a halfass hire. mcs**tty was still in here from the John York era and he had input with all his business guys walking around the building. this is the first pure hire that jed is in charge of.

I disagree, Mike Singletary was Jed York's guy. It was his first real big hire and he failed miserably. There's nothing that would suggest he is qualified to make a GM hire. I don't care who's in his ear, the bottom line is we need Jed to make one good hire and the GM can be accountable for the rest.

Uncle eddie failed also on his 1st couple of hires~~~ so just cuz 1 fail happens doesnt mean its always going to.

Right now Jed is saying all the right things on KNBR. He said he will continue to stay out of personnel decisions, knowing that it is not his strong suite. He will allow the GM to hire a head coach and will serve as a supporting role for both. This, for me, is an ideal structure. GM will be held accountable for all future football decisions. If Jed can make the right hire, we will at least have a solid foundation.

I think Jed is learning a lot from his Uncle Eddie--so I am somewhat confident they can somehow hire the right people--i think Harbaugh is that special Walsh type person--Walsh was the key to harbaughs hire at Stanford--he thought very highly of him--I would pay Harbaugh whatever it took--$5-6 million a year.

What made Walsh so special is that he was so good at everything. Creating an outstanding and stable adminstrative structure, surrounding himself with extremely capable people, being able to judge talent better than any other man of his era. Then you add his coaching and his visionary offensive approach and you realize that guys like him just don't come around very often. But I also think Harbaugh has the look of a guy that will be good. But I doubt we will ever see the likes of Walsh again.

It's too bad that all the work Walsh put in to accomplish that burnt him out.

Not that he had anything left to prove.
