Former Tennessee coach Derek Dooley (possibly TE coach?) and Saints secondary coach Aaron Glenn interviewed for positions on Joe Judge's staff today, per sources. Also, Freddie Kitchens isn't a done deal.

All over the place

Should we read that as Jerome Henderson got the job over Aaron Glenn?

hope we learn that Steve Wilks is under consideration for a spot on the D

Imo, team should have a safeties coach and a CB coach.

I agree

Coached under Saban at LSU and Miami. Coached with Garrett in Miami and Dallas. Close to Jason Witten.

Peter Falk?

Only that Columbo was interviewed (today ?)

The interview of Dave DeGuglielmo happened Tuesday night (last night) and only Jason Garrett participated.

that he would be delegating responsibility to his 3 coordinators.

That certainly seems the case as Judge confirmed this morning to reporters that he is working long hours from his hotel room interviewing and working to establish his staff.

So Judge has not watched practices and seems clear he is delegating that aspect of the Senior Bowl.

they waited until news was released he was retiring. Now they can get back to filling coaching staff.

Not really Aaron Glenn interviewed for Pats DC. Dooley was on Garrett's staff at one point. Judge is friends with Kitchens

Unless Freddie is coming in as a consultant or similar title, the only vacancy of note on offense that either is qualified for is TE Coach.

Jody Wright is probably going to get an "Offensive Assistant" title like he had in Cleveland or maybe Assistant "Insert Position Here" Coach.

Glenn is interesting, surprised New Orleans would let him interview for a lateral move. Sounds like they aren't thrilled with him, which might have something to do with that argument we saw between him and Lattimore on the sideline.

and made official?

100% bet that the beat writers are praying that Dooley gets hired.

He will be a big hit during interviews.

Attached is a little bit of Dooley

holy crap, this guy is hilarious. Hire him lol

he seems to be getting his top choices, and even Callahan I assume he knew was unlikely once they hired Garrett. I know Bielema's rep, but he's an interesting addition - it wasn't so long ago he was as sought after in the CFB world as Rhule and since then he's spent 2 years in the Belichek world.

Glenn (if he joins the staff), the DB coach, and the QB coach all seem to be creating a built in pipeline of future coordinators. Dooley/Kitchens would add to that as well if they join the staff.

It's tough to evaluate Graham but clearly Judge holds him in high regard so that will be a very interesting storyline to follow.

Overall though a very nice blend of guys with familiarity but also a diverse range of experiences. Was open minded enough to keep the ST/WR coaches who did a good job, added some highly regarded young coaches like Columbo, Graham, the QB coach, and also added at least 1 guy on each side of the ball with high profile HC + playcalling experience (Garrett, Bielema).

We used to, didn't we? Weren't Merritt and Giunta our DB coaches at one time, one for safeties and one for CB's?

Oh, hell yeah!

Dooleyisms

They probably are going with a secondary Coach. But probably splitting the position. Corners coach and Safeties coach, it the reports about Henderson are true.

Maybe Glenn gets the CBs/pass game Coordinator title?
