ESPN John Clayton this morning was on the Doug & Wolf show and said the chances of Dick LeBeau coming to the Cardinals are zero. He said that is loyal to the players and to Pittsburgh. His next move will be retirement.
The intersting thing to me is that after Wolf made the comments about LeBeau they had on Cardinals Special Team Coach Kevin Spencer and he seemed to give the LeBeau as Cardinals DC some validity.
He said that Whiz and LeBeau have a very close relationship. In fact he called it an almost father son relationship. He also said that LeBeau loves golfing as much as he loves coaching and is very competetive. He said that Whiz and LeBeau golf together whenever the possibility presents itself. He believes the only reason he doesn't think it might happen is beacause LeBeaus sons are in Cincinnati and that LeBeaus mother is also out east. I got the impression that this might have been something that has been talked about betwwen these guys.
Wolf also talked about LeBeau and Horton. He said that LeBeau is always very forthcoming about blitz and rush packages but he never ever talks about coverages in his system and that it is known that he believes that the coverages are the secret to the system.
He also said that Horton is very well respected and has worked with LeBeau for many years and has dealt with coverages in the Steeler system and knows as much about them as LeBeau himself.
I wouldn't take anything Wolf says about the Steelers lightly because his brother works for the Steeler organization and he usually has pretty good information.
