From where does this myth that Wilks wasn’t keim’s choice originate?

It was well documented that Keim met him on vacation and came away very impressed. I can’t recall a single offseason article that lamented the fact that Keim lost “his” guy or even who “his” guy was supposed to be.

Do I believe Mikey had heavy input into who was hired? Of course. But he just gave Keim an extension and the only connection we have between Mikey and Keim and any of the coaches were bettchers existing relationship with both as our former DC and keims vacation love affair with Wilks. Wilks was definitely keim’s guy!!!
I don't remember but who else came in here for an interview and got hired elsewhere?

Pat Shurmur and James Betcher are the two that I remember. They both ended up in NY.

Matt Patricia as well for the Lions

Hard to be the guy in charge of all football ops and not at least share in the blame for a bad football team.

and, by bad-- not just bad relative to the league this year, but bad offensively going back 15 or 20 years. think about that: Maybe a bottom 5 offensive team in the last 20 years. The Texans and Browns were expansion teams that started during that stretch.
