During the lowest points of the regular season in Tampa Bay, Buccaneers fans wanted the team to fire Greg Schiano and hire Lovie Smith.They have gotten their wish, albeit belatedly.Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reports that Lovie Smith will become the next head coach of the Buccaneers, and that the two sides are finalizing the terms of a contract.Smith served as linebackers coach in Tampa from 1996 through 2000, before becoming the Rams’ defensive coordinator in 2001. Three years later, the Bears hired Smith to be the team’s head coach, where he served for nine seasons.The move comes only two days after the Buccaneers fired Greg Schiano. Because Smith is a minority candidate, the Bucs were able to move swiftly, hiring Smith without interviewing any other candidates.
This is good
Welcome home Lovie!!#WeLoveLovie
Do we get that Marc Ross guy now?
The last time this happened, Beatles woke up the next morning brokenhearted.
MEETING WITH THE LIONS LOL SUCK IT DETROIT
INB4 HE STAYS AT OREGON:D
nooooooooo
Lovie's first astonishing accomplishment - he actually has a majority positive opinion on the forums!Weclome aboard Lovie!
Jay Glazer ?@JayGlazer Perfect hire for Bucs after what they just went through, Lovie is a grown up, no drama guy who will bring old Bucs tradition back.
The past 5 years have felt like the "old Bucs tradition". lol Hopefully he is bringing back the Dungy/Gruden winning traditions back
I'm going to say that I'm not overly excited by the hire, but we could have done much worse than Lovie. He's got an overall winning percentage, he knows how to run an organization, and he's fine with admitting mistakes and trying something different when it's not working.He just needs a good OC.
Do we get that Marc Ross guy now?
My guess is Eric Stokes will be the new GM
Oh, also let me say that I am SO HAPPY I was wrong about Shanahan. I was truly convinced they had a hard on for him and that scared the crap out of me.
