LOL. He was probably TxSU's best coaching prospect. Somebody must think he can coach. Vikes new head coach Childress is out that Walsh-Holmgren- Andy Reid West coast coaching tree, so I trust his judgement for now. Of course coaching TEs shouldn't be that hard. Even Mike Tice could do that. Glad to see the brothers getting hired. Vikes also hired a young brother in Mike Tomlin from Tampa Bay to be the DC. He's only 33. This is going to be a young agressive coaching staff.
