Ivy Leaguers stick together, and new Minnesota GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah (Princeton) is a big fan of Patrick Graham (Yale), a 13-year NFL assistant who also interviewed for the #Giants head coaching job.

Skull and Bones shit.

Yea, not liking this thought-process at all.  Giants have been crap for years and are not real known to be pumping out good coaches.  Is this guy from the Shumur tree or Joe Judge??

I am pulling for Morris or O'Connell at this point.  

This will be Kwesi's first big decision and even this look-see makes me Kwesi.

 Still No

Ya'll better get ready for some unconventional thinking. I'd say KAM is more likely to hire his guy based on leadership, strategic and philosophical alignment than whatever his record might have been with a terrible team. There are a thousand different factors that go into that. 
And ya know what? I don't disagree with that approach. The whole idea behind analytics is to look beyond the surface results. 

So I'm all good with "analyzing" things.  But wins/losses should be one of those numbers they look at.  As should yards/game.  The Giants were a bottom 1/3rd D last year.

 I'm already getting over this:  Let's get Kwesi crazy and expect the unconventional.  Sometimes the best decision is an easy decision, and it is nothing unconventional.  I mean this is getting to the point in two days where Kwesi might be talking to Elon Musk for HC

I will give the guy some room to make his first big decision as long as it is Morris/O'Connell

 That is what happens when you let Dalvin Tomlinson slip through your fingers.

Every GM will look at stats differently. HC’s will too. It’s a passing league and the Giants ranked middle of the pack in advanced passing defense. They were pretty bad in advanced rushing defense though. 49ers are the only team left in the top 14 for advanced rushing defense (Pro Football Reference Metrics) FWIW.

Wish we knew what Kwesi looked at for advanced analytics so maybe who he hires guides us in that direction.

I interact daily with a few Giant fanatics.  General consensus...they like him a lot, but don't see him as a head coach yet.  Super smart, players really like him and they are hoping to keep him as DC.  See him as a HC in a few years time.

I'm waiting for the really dumb candidates

Vikings interview Giants DC Patrick Graham today. Keep a close eye on this one. Graham and Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah have built a strong relationship over the last year.

When Adofo-Mensah got the job, a name he gave the Vikes in his int'w was added to the HC search—Graham's.
