anyone else feel like we are totally being used a leveraging tool in contract negotiations between Kliff and the Jets? I mean, can anyone remember a time when someone was picking between us and another team (especially a big market team) actually picked us?

and how fast are people here who don't care about Kliff stiffing USC a couple weeks after going there going to turn around and trash him when he goes with the Jets?
I am certianly NOT sold on KK, but The USC thing doesn't bother me for two reasons:

1) AZ job is a huge promotion from OC with USC;
2) USC's contract has very cheap buyout clause thus he is abiding by the terms of the contract.

Organizing Everything:

~Kliff is currently in Arizona as of this morning. Any report to the contrary is bullsh*t and I can say that with knowledge

~USC knows he’s gone. That ship has sailed

~Keim and Michael B talked with him last week, which sparked mutual interest over the weekend

~Barring a last-minute f-up or the Jets giving him a Godfather offer, he’s the Cards HC no later than tomorrow

All i know is from the USC side of things. I have friends w/ connections to the AD. Long story short: KK doesn’t sacrifice a good gig at USC for the NFL unless he has assurances that he has a job in waiting.

Kliff Kingsbury wil be in tonight for his interview with the Cardinals. According to sources in New York, Jets are pushing hard to get him to be there next head coach did not want him to make the trip to Arizona

Too much smoke to think this isn't happening.

I figure he'll pretty much be the HC/OC... with another OC in name only candidate joining him.
Biggest question now is, who will rebuild the Defense.

Go Cards!!!

Keim met Wilks at a beach. I really don't want (but I want) to venture where Kingsbury met Keim.

Small sample size? They didn't have much on that defense. Before this year, Smith's defenses were Top 10 in takeaways in 5 of the last 7 seasons — without great personnel.

Other ideas: Perry Fewell (DBs coach for the Jags, former NYG DC)

Fewell is an intriguing idea. But doesn't he run a 4-3?

That failure by him on Suns draft night was glorious.

I hope Keim wasn’t shirtless

That’s a long flight to talk. Should be completed when the wheels touch down.
