When he was asked to interview for the Texans head coaching job, Lovie Smith was sent a round-trip ticket from Chicago to Houston on a commerical flight. No private plane, no organization entourage knocking on his door in Lake Forest, Ill.When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers asked to interview Smith, the team's three co-chairmen flew to the Windy City Tuesday in the dead of winter and summoned the former Bears' head coach to a home owned by Bryan Glazer, who was joined by his brothers, Joel and Ed."In the coaching carousel, everybody is playing this shadow game and trying to figure out where they stand,'' said Smith's son, Matt, an agent for IMG who represents his dad. "The Bucs were very candid they wanted dad and they were willing to do what it takes to get him. They knew who they wanted and they got their guy.''http://www.tampabay.com/blogs/bucs/the-full-press-recruitment-of-lovie-smith-to-the-bucs/2159398He said, "I just don't want to go somewhere, I want to go to the right place. Tampa is the right place.''

Good read. I think Lovie's availability is what sealed Schiano's fate. Interesting about his son Matt being an agent with IMG. Good for him So it's not that Schiano was a lousy coach who had a lower winning percentage than Raheem Morris, it's just that there was this one guy who happened to be available we had to have.

I know your reading comprehension is poor so I highlighted the important part that answers your question. By the way, Morris sucked as a HC of this team and his 3 year reign was a complete waste for this franchise. Period. Now go snuggle up to your Heemy fat head and stay warm
