Ex-Saints as position coaches

fact-o-bake · 11-19-2004, 11:40 AM

Just a topic I thought we could have some fun with.
If we were to have a new coaching regime, and they wanted to fill the positions with ex-saints, who would be some top choices? Here's mine.
O-line coach: Joel Hilgenberg
Tight Ends: John Tice
Wide Receivers:
Quarterbacks: Archie Manning
Running Backs: Earl Campbell with Bufford Jordan as assistant
D-line: Jumpy Geathers and Wayne Martin
Linebackers: Sam Mills and Ricky Jackson
Secondary: Brett Maxie
Special Teams: Fred McAfee would be probably be a good one when he retires.

the only one i would even consider would be mills..he has been coaching in carolina...and has at least some eperience coaching...the other players i have no idea about what they\'re doing...or if they have ever coached in any capacity in the nfl...but mills would be a big pick up for this team..simply for his inspiration factor alone..this guy ia a warrior...and he\'s still young enough to have good communication with younger players..plus..he\'s sam mills...he\'s like a demi-god for the saints

Ricky Jackson!?! LOL. Have you ever heard that guy talk? Put your hand over your mouth and then try to say something, that\'s what it\'s like trying to listen to Ricky Jackson. having him as a coach would be like having the crazy cajun in the Waterboy. He\'d talk and all of the players would just stare blankly. LOL!

Wide Receivers: Eric Martin
Secondary: David Waymer or Gene Atkins
D-Line: Wayne Martin or Frank Warren or Jim Wilks. All could to it. Renaldo Turnbull would be fun.

Linebackers: Do ours really need any coaching? C\'mon, they\'re perfect as they are.
RB: Mario Bates
QB: Anyone named Billy Joe.

the other players i have no idea about what they\'re doing...or if they have ever coached in any capacity in the nfl...

Brett Maxie is the defensive backs coach for the Falcons, and did the same for the 49ers. Jim Mora Jr. took him with him.
John Tice is the tight ends/ assisitant O-line coach for the Vikings.

Ricky Jackson!?! LOL. Have you ever heard that guy talk? Put your hand over your mouth and then try to say something, that\'s what it\'s like trying to listen to Ricky Jackson. having him as a coach would be like having the crazy cajun in the Waterboy. He\'d talk and all of the players would just stare blankly. LOL!

That\'s funny. I didn\'t know that. But seriously is that from his car accident/ facial surgery.

i would love to see a few positions filled former players.
the ravens did it with Mike Singletary, however
how hard is iit to coach Ray Lewis?
regardless,
it would be meanspirted to set them up with the backers we have now.

anybody know if Courtney Watson can Coach?

Sorry WhoDat but I think David Waymer is dead. I think I remember he died of a drug overdose after he went to the 49\'ers. Best of my memory it was in the early to mid 80\'s.

Aw man. Really? I didn\'t know that.

FOB - no, I don\'t think Jackson could talk before the accident either.

Sorry to add a second name to your list of the gone but not forgotten WhoDat, but Frank Warren is no longer with us either.
