New Orleans Saints defensive coordinator Rob Ryan mum, but ex-player sings his praise

With more than a dozen reporters eagerly awaiting New Orleans Saints defensive coordinator Rob Ryan's first public comments since being hired in February, the usually loquacious Ryan remained tight-lipped.

Asked if he had a minute for a brief interview Wednesday as he exited the LSU indoor practice facility following LSU's Pro Day, Ryan simply waved off the throng of journalists, saying only "training camp," suggesting he won't meet with reporters until the team gathers for training camp in late July.

Until then, fans and casual observers of the Saints likely will have to sit back and wait to find out exactly what plans Ryan has in store as he and his staff work to makeover what was the worst defense in NFL history last season, yielding a record 7,042 yards.

But former LSU defensive end Marcus Spears, who played the previous two seasons for Ryan with the Dallas Cowboys before signing this offseason with the Baltimore Ravens, said Ryan should help the Saints out greatly.

A Ryan shied away from reporters? Unheard of.

Sean Payton's boot is on his neck.

Ill bet Sean started his interview with Ryan in the following manor...

"I know what sort of nut farms you've worked for in the past, so let me start with... that crap doesn't go on here, if you want to work at a Circus talk to PT Barnum"...

I have no problem with him keeping quiet.
Actions on the field will speak loud enough....


After all you don't wanna get Spaged!

Payton issued a gag order for RR. I'm sure Ryan wants to run his mouth but he's learning his lessons from coach. Just like Payton learned from the Tuna.
