My neighbor is from Texas and has connections to multiple colleges through family history and his own education. He can't stand Kingsbury. We've had multiple conversations prior to the Bowles firing about how much he couldn't stand him. He won't even refer to him by name, instead calling him "Gosling" anytime he comes up in football conversation now. He is laughing hysterically at the thought of me, his Jet-fan-neighbor, being saddled with Gosling. He is really unhappy that they've also interviewed Rhule. He does NOT want that to happen to the Bears. I'm openly hoping for Rhule now based strictly on that alone.
In case anyone missed it there is a pretty good podcast on Monken discussing his time at southern Miss and TB with two beat writers that covered those teams. It made me more excited about Monken. http://turnonthejets.com/2019/01/episode-211-meet-the-candidates-todd-monken/
He was good at Southern Miss, I do know that. For some reason though I don’t see him as a serious candidate
