Damn man let him go. No amount of complaining or reminiscing is going to bring him back. Time to move on.

Reading in to that a tad to much.

Not gonna happen unless you have a time machine to go an change history. In the alternate timeline, Harbaugh goes to Miami.

I said this before. Nothing short of the Niners winning the Superbowl will get people to stop talking about Harbaugh and blaming the FO.

nice to see we are going to have one damn locker room. enough of this divided house b******t that went on last year. its just a little thing that does not show up in quik stats but little things make up the big things. oh and people need to let the former coach go. i have no idea how the new coach will do, i have no clue how the new assistants will do but it is already a breath of fresh air we have a coach who does not have to have the spotlight on him all the time. just set back, do your job, let others do their job and let the players have fun and play the damn game

The press conference was a little rough, but he'll get better with experience.

One thing he said that I liked was after he was asked about a Super Bowl prediction, saying "The difference between confidence and arrogance is ignorance."

I think this whole situation will be determined by what kind of OC he selects.

some coaches we have had do well at press conference, make funny little quips and do a nice job of drawing attention to themselves. that is something i do not miss

Not that I don't think JT would have one locker room no matter what, but it will be impossible to have two this year: the old ones are being converted to coaches offices.

If the press conferences were the best indicator of future success, then Mike Nolan should be a 3x SB winner by now. He owned the press conferences. I don't miss that style either, and I've since learned not to put much stock in meaningless things like press conferences..

He sounds a million times better in this interview than the press conference earlier.

Sounds reassuring. I can' t listen to it at the moment (at work). Can you give a rundown on what sounds better?

He's just speaking better. Having a conversation with Tom with give and take. He's answering questions with more ease. You can tell some of the questions he isn't ready to answer because there is no staff in place. He's definitely not throwing out "We're bring the west coast offense back to the 49ers" like Jim did. lol

Cool, thanks StOnEy

now maybe he is just one of those people who do not do well in front of a big crowd . i am in the media and i know many people who do not do well during a prepared speech but once they can talk off the top of their head they are so much better. i am in radio so i do not do well in regards to public speaking but in a studio, i pretend i am speaking to one person through the mic and its a big difference. some coaches just have different comfort zone levels

and the media, big market any, asks stupid questions anyway. i am in a small market and try to ask a question that i think a general member of the public will want to ask,

I'm a film history major and I can write pages and pages and pages of film analysis. In college I would write 15-20 page reports the day before they were due with only a basic outline having been done beforehand. Get me talking one on one with another person interested in film and I can get specific and detailed about technique, style, the psychological effect of editing, etc.

I tried doing a podcast about classic films with a couple friends that I guarantee was heard by no more than a dozen people, tops. I was nervous as hell and when I listened back to the recording afterwards I said "um" possibly every third or fourth word. "I, um, appreciated the, um, decision to use the longer, um, take because allowing the, um, actors, um, room to move around the, um, set allowed their, um, presence to, um, dominate the space..."

Disaster. DISASTER. Totally stuck my foot in my mouth.

So, yeah, I can see someone who is not good in front of the media in a tense atmosphere being just fine - and knowing how to do his job - in the coaches room and on the sidelines when it actually matters.

He'll get more comfortable with the media as time goes on. The important thing now is to hire some solid coaches.

I did no audio and the stream just kept buffering.

That's a great example. Thanks for sharing. I've had similar experiences in my life. Had all the knowledge, and had no trouble articulating it with people I knew, but couldn't explain it effectively in a public setting. It sucked, totally embarrasing, but you get better with experience and its not a problem for long.

i just watched the presser. i can see why players like him, intellectually it seems like he is on the same level as most of them. not saying hes stupid, but i think players can relate to him well. game management and the intricacies that are being a head coach im worried about. we really need a strong coaching staff to come in to balance out any incompetence tomsula might possess.

im worried who our other coaches are going to be, He seemed real nervous i hope he is not out of his depth when it comes to running the team. Although i have my own thoughts Baalke wants to be running the show at 49er headquarter every day, he just doesn't want to have to answer for it after losses, only speaks to the media when this stuff happens so he can flex just a bit.

Hopefully Baalke doesn't bomb another draft, hes had real good picks, but he also bombed 2 years in a row that could've hurt us this year not having young Offensive talent. At the time i kind of thought LMJ was harbaughs recommended pick, like Baalke would let Jim Harbaugh have a say on a couple players, as time went on with Jims comments about AJJ i thought maybe it was another player Jim highly recommended. I thought Harbaugh was a good galvanizer of men at first, i never wanted him to have GM powers because i just always felt like he was too in love with players to critique them. But i just pray Baalke can add some offensive talent to this damn team, we need it. TE, WR, OL. We don't have the most talented team in the league anymore, not even top 3. That happens as other teams get good and 2 drafts are basically scratched.

Most important in my mind right now is who is going to be our Coordinators. I really do not like how Jed and Trent have operated during this, tbh it seems like with reports of them liking Tomsula and him wanting the job before Harbs was gone it makes me think they may even do stuff like interview a bunch of people with no reported interview of Tomsula ALL FOR SHOW. Just like when Jed said he would search for a GM. Not saying Baalke was a bad choice, we will surely see now if he was. But a mark of a young boss a lot of times is just hiring his friends and people that will listen to them and that they are comfortable with and have experience with. Because people they arent comfortable with might challenge them, and Jed to me looks like a kid out of his depth. Like he has baby fat on him god damn i just dont like him haha.
