    I knew there was something funny about the guy. Good look to ya Trestman, keep your stick on the ice.
    He's from Minneapolis.

    I don't see him back in the CFL, the Bear's offense was good while he was there, I think some new NFL staff picks him up as their OC. He could also take a year off, he was fired, so he must have at least a year left on his contract with the Bears.

      Was there ever a Canadian in the NFL coaching ranks?

      I don't know. If we could help a lot with NASA I cannot imagine why not !?

      Marc Trestman was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota on January 15, 1956 (age 58).

        He was loved in Montreal and he left there with all those good feeling of the city and his success with the Als.

            If you don't know the answer to that question 'off the top of your head'? You may be surprized at the correct answer.
            Willie Wood.

                  • Thanks Woodbuck.

                    I wrote about Willie Wood's coaching career on here a couple years ago when he was in the news for the many severe health problems he has, and the monetary problems resulting from it. As I recall, he took a reduced early NFL retirement to pay for some surgeries or something, and just kept sinking both medically and financially.

                    Wood was a head coach in the WFL (or whatever league was active then), which made him the first black head coach of a pro team in the modern era. He then went to Canada to be the first in the CFL. It was thought he was a front runner for one job in the NFL (LA Rams, I think), but ultimately didn't get it. He was rumored to be in line for a couple others, then just sort of disappeared. I think that was when his health issues first began to surface,

                    As a collegian at USC, he was the first black starting QB in the Pac 12; (or whatever the league was then), and had to put up with a lot because of it. That was in the late 1950s and befor the civil rights movement really took hold in the US.

                    Willie Wood was one of quiet barrier breakers who did a lot without saying a lot.

                      The difference between Rex Ryan and Tom Coughlan's HC experience with their teams.



                      I noted what Mark Kriegle made a statement at the top of this video, on this season and the current host being an improvement over last season. He directed this to host Rhett Lewis.

                      Last year ( the IMO talented Nichol Zaloumis ) had that seat (alone) and she's been replaced by Rhett Lewis and Erin Coscarelli.

                      Frankly I watch this show a lot and I find that Rhett Lewis is doing a good job but Erin Coscarelli isn't good. I've read reviews that criticizes her style often talking over the men on the panel and generally , her expertise leaving much to be desired.

                      This is .... a football show and the first one to kick off the day for many NFL fans.

                      This isn't ... the sexy and the fashionable and the zany and ..... something about football ... show.

                            • Are the Raiders still on the hunt for a "superstar" coach? The names so far -- Tony Sparano, Eric Mangini, Pat Shurmur and Jack Del Rio -- suggest otherwise.


                              Eric Mangini, Pat Shurmur headline Raiders' list

                              " Oakland's current list of candidates hardly suggests the "rock star" that owner Mark Davis was supposedly desperate to unearth after firing Dennis Allen in September.

                              Along with interim coach Tony Sparano, the Raiders have asked to speak with 49ers assistant Eric Mangini, Eagles offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur and Broncos defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio. "
