New Orleans Saints play-caller Pete Carmichael could land on head coaching short lists.

The Saints have become a popular resource for clubs looking to hire coaching and front office talent.

It started two years ago when Syracuse hired offensive coordinator Doug Marrone to become its head coach.

The talent raid continued last year when the Denver Broncos lured defensive backs coach Dennis Allen away.

This year, wide receivers coach Curtis Johnson has accepted the head coaching position at Tulane, and offensive line coach Aaron Kromer has agreed to interview with the St. Louis Rams for their head coaching position. Last week, the Indianapolis Colts requested an interview with director of college scouting Rick Reiprish for their vacant general manager position.

Oh he can go... he was stand in for Sean Payton and play-caller during the Rams game.

I like SP making the calls anyway.

I'm with you Halo. He has been with Drew for a long time too. They go back to his San Diego day's.

I sorta feel like if Payton hadn't broken his leg, this guy would still be totally under the radar of other teams.

With all due respect, I hope Pete's interviews don't go so well. We need to keep our offensive brain trust intact.

If that is the nerdy-looking kid with the glasses then unfortunately I don't see a bright future for him. He just doesn't have the face or demeanor to command respect from a group of grown men. If he were in charge, it would only a matter of time before someone applied a super-wedgie that could end his career.
