O'Connell And Ryan Set For 2nd Interviews

https://www.nfl.com/news/vikings-gauge-jim-harbaugh-s-interest-in-head-coach-opening-to-hold-second-inter

So O'Connell and Ryans FOR SURE 2nd round interviews and at least a discussion about Harbaugh, reported possible interview with him last night. I think that's correct as of this Sunday morning?

If Jim Harbaugh happens to leave Michigan for the Minnesota Vikings, two assistants as OC and DC picks are expected to be Pep Hamilton and Vic Fangio. per @CBSSports

O'Connell..for me...

If you’re not intrigued by Harbaugh, you’re doing it wrong.

He’s won wherever he has been, and is a quarterback whisperer.

It’d be a home run hire.

Jim Harbaugh is “very interested” interested in the #Vikings head coach opening per @PhilMackey and his interview with Minnesota took place on Saturday night per @ProFootballTalk

Things are certainly moving

Seems to have some legs.

I don't have a favorite, IMO its still a crapshoot with anyone new coming in as a first time HC. I'd be ok with Harbaugh as well, but I'm very cool with O'Connell or Ryans. There's just no way to tell. Its not like trading for a great player who's a known quantity. This is the unknown.

I don't see Harbaugh as a culture fit. Again, you'd be potentially fostering the same toxic environment you just booted.

But, what he did with the 49ers can't be discounted.

Honestly, I'll get behind whomever until they prove they can't get it done.

I don't think Kwesi would be interested in Harbaugh if he didn't think he could work with him. Otherwise I'd probably feel a little more like you do. But like you say, I'll get behind whomever they sign. That's the truth of it. There's positivity to be mined whomever the hire turns out to be.

lmao, Wilfs 'power move'. They just hired a new f-ing GM for christ'ssake. This would be about Kwesi being interested in Harbaugh. These f-ing fanboys and their theories.

I agree with this thought:

So far those would be my top 3 choices. I'm really intrigued by the two coordinators, but landing Harbaugh would immediately bring a shot of relevance to this team across the NFL. Plus, dude knows how to win, and at the end of the day that's what we all want.

The two guys you just quoted I have on mute. Just ridiculous tweets for the most part.

I do too, this aint rocket science...

I would be fan devastated if they hired Harbaugh.

I think O'Connell and Ryans both fit with what the Wilfs stated they are looking for and would be well received by the team. Kwesi has past experience with Harbaugh if there was a serious interest, he would be in Minny right now hammering out a deal and the Vikes would not be scheduling 2nd interviews.  

I think the Harbaugh news is a leverage play.  If Harbaugh was really interested in coming to the NFL he would be in Miami, where their billionaire owner Stephen Ross who is a Michigan grad has been obsessed with bringing him to Miami and would give him a blank check and all the power he wants.  

You want more boring offense from 1985, Harbaugh's your guy.  Believe me, I've been watching him for the past 7 yrs. in Michigan, and besides for this past year where he got a gift from his brother who rented him a DC to save his job, he's been stale, disengaged, and clueless. He constantly speaks in cliches, and will wear thin quickly.  Really don't care if he leaves Michigan, just don't give me the boomerang of going to Minnesota please.
