Vikings Looking At KOC

So....I guess the “Michigan Alum” Jim Stapleton who is part of the Vikings ownership group gets to keep Harbaugh with Michigan. 

CONGRATS....

You get to keep your coach in Michigan, because you intimidated the Wilf’s....and the Vikings get a “thirty something” OC who looks good in board shorts to fix our shitty defense, cutting his teeth in the NFL.

We had a chance to get a “proven winner” in the NFL, and we go with Doogie Howser.

I am thrilled Harbaugh is out.

First big decision by Kwesi and I like it.  I wanted a guy from the Offensive side of the ball.

Let the era of KOC begin.

Long may he reign.

As much as I could buy into the rationale for a more tenured HC to pair with KAM, I'm super jazzed about a Kwesi/OC partnership.

Bright, young minds out in Eagan. 

I dont see anyone complaing that he does not call plays  :p
Just saying

Kevin O'Connell is 36. Kwesi Adofo-Mensah is 40. This is a new era in Minnesota with a young, first-time head coach pairing up with a young, first-time GM. The focus will be on collaboration, culture, and leadership as they look to build a team that can contend for Super Bowls.

Not official until after the Super Bowl, but they told Graham and Morris they were out.

Let the era of KOC begin.

Long may he reign.

Get that guy in the proper attire…!  ;) B)  

The #Vikings met with Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh for 9 hours today, but the team didn’t make an offer, per source.

So Harbaugh returns to Ann Arbor and Kevin O’Connell — soon — is expected to head to Minnesota.

He has over three years experience as OC and also worked with Cousins before so that’s a bonus. 

You all understand this increases the likelihood of Cousins staying.
KOC was Kirk’s QB coach with “the team formerly known as Redskins” in what 2017?

....still celebrating the hire?

and we are doing what exactly to address the fact that we cant keep a team from scoring less than 30 points a game?
