Juan Castillo, new DC of your Philadelphia Eagles

[Eagaholic]

I think Castillo may be able to get the D into the playoffs, they didn't miss by much. But in no way would that vindicate Reid's decision to hire him. They may be a decent defense but Juan be won't able to match wits with the offensive minds he'll meet along the way to winning a SB, which is the goal. 

[QB Eagles]

Not even sure why I'm posting this, but Reid on Spags:

"Steve and I are good friends and we talked throughout the season as we do every year. When Steve was released from the Rams I did offer him a spot here to coach, if he needed one, a place to land with open arms," Reid said. "And my feeling was that you can have two great coaches on defense and that's even better than just having Juan himself, so that's about as far as it went there. We didn't talk about titles. We didn't go into any of that."
....
Reid said he never really considered replacing Castillo as his defensive coordinator but was excited about the prospect of adding Spagnuolo to his defensive staff. He said he thought Castillo and Spagnuolo "could be dynamite" together.

gargano said today that spags told him that reid offered him the DC position and that juany would have been reassigned to somewhere else on the defense

andy saying they didnt discuss titles is simply an after the fact way of protecting juany

[SunMo]

i'm surprised he said as much as he did

[Rome]

I'm surprised someone hasn't taken him out with a farging bazooka.

[ice grillin you]

i'm surprised he said as much as he did

yeah...im suprised spags would have wanted cuz to say all that as spags is close to juany himself and you wouldnt think that hed wanna be repsonsible for everyone knowing that juany would be out as DC if he had accepted the position...not to mention blowing up andys spot too

so i had a meeting with a few of the other sports guys and juany called one of them during the meeting since hes coming down here to teach coaches about offensive line techniques.

i def. has his cell in case anyone is interested. it starts with 215.

[Sgt PSN]

So you don't want to put your name to rumors about HS coaches but you'll give out Castillo's cell number.

Journalistic integrity, indeed.

[MDS]

yea im dead serious, ill give it out. definitely.*


*i mean if the eagles lose the super bowl next year because juany left andre johnson singled up on jai jarrett in overtime then alright lets do it

[Rome]

Maybe you might want to, you know, be a journalist and ask him for an interview?

I know he'll probably say 'no' because the Eagles are like the gestapo with access, but still, give it a shot.

[MDS]

im not doing the story, nor am i going out there

other stuff going on + ive made it no secret how i feel about him = someone else is doing it

[rjs246]

Start looking into graduate programs in some other field. Like immediately.

[Sgt PSN]

Lol @ little guy letting fan feelings trump professional opportunity. It's ok. I'm sure dozens of NFL coaches travel to Browsville on the regular.

[MDS]

in texas national signing day and uil realignment >>>>>> juany coming home

[Munson]

You still request an interview and establish a connection. That way if you ever do find a way back to philly you can say hey juan good to see you again, how about a couple questions? Plus its, you kknow, and nfl cordinator....certainly not something to put on a resume or just a nice oppertunity or anything
