Adam Schefter@AdamSchefterVikings are planning to introduce Rams’ offensive coordinator Kevin O’Connell as their next head coach on Thursday, per league sources.
Yeah I posted this in a couple of threads. I know I want it to be official too but some people are just losing their shit.
If people could learn to wait for guys like Tom P, Rap, Scheff, etc before getting on the ledge...

Ian Rapoport@RapSheet·1hFrom NFL Now: The #Vikings and coach Kevin O'Connell continue to work out a deal, as the delay (if it's even a delay) has nothing to do with the #Rams. The plan is for a press conference Thursday, so he doesn't have to fly back and forth with the parade in between.

Chris Tomasson@christomasson·1h
Darrin Brown, who was #Vikings Kevin O’Connell’s Calif HS coach “He always carried himself well & was such an outstanding adult student, mature. Always a leader. So kids looked up to him. Always had that smile. He was great in the classroom. Great on the field. Positive attitude"
Brown would further say "I had him in 7th period home economics. Kid could wisk an egg like nobody else. Great wrist action which transferred over to the football field"
Exit interviews, parade then he flies to Minneapolis

Press conference planned for Thursday.I think a nice tidbit that many didn't know was Minnesota could NOT discuss or negotiate his contract before the Super Bowl. They had to wait, so between that formality and him wanting to be part of the LA parade, there you have it. ProFootballTalk.com ran with it, of course....that's what they do. Complete and utter whores for the clicks.

I could see this coming 3 weeks ago.
I'm not going to be chicken little about it, but it really puts that young staff and front office behind the 8 ball this year.
FA is what? 3 weeks away? And they dont have one defensive coach on the staff working with scouting to acquire the right players for the right system. We could go on and on from that.
Gotta hope they have a bit of lady-luck looking out for them this season.
This is where the NFL protocols for new hires aren't right. I may say just the opposite if I was a Rams or Bengals fan too lol! :p
