Tom Telesco Officially Chargers' GM (edit)

Recommended Posts

Tom Telesco is the VP of football operations for the Colts. It's down to him and Jimmy Raye (Chargers' director of player personnel). Telesco is the favorite supposedly (ESPN Rumours).

Anyways, if Telesco is the GM, who do you think would be right at the top of his list for HC: Big Bad Bruce. He obviously has a familiarity with him, and Arians had that great 9-3 record this year. Bruce was being considered as the next HC even before any Telesco-GM talks arose.

Just some news I thought I'd share with you guys.

Arians would make sense.  I wouldn't rule out Lovie Smith either.  While Telesco didn't work with Smith he worked with Dungy and Smith is off the Dungy coaching tree. 

Hmmmm....Dungy out of retirement to live in San Diego? Mrs. Dungy might agree to that.

I feel Telesco has been a little bit overlooked with the Colts.  He is the last of the Polian guys....other than I guess Clyde 'Dial the Magic' Christenson.   :spit:

 

I like BA and love Telesco, but if SanDiego is their calling the Chargers have called 2 good men!!!!

 

With all of the changes coming with the Colts, adding a new OC and VP of operations adds to the fun!!!  It has been an awesome year for our Colts, and this off season will be a great ride as well.  With Grigs and Pagano "Rolling up their sleeves for Round 2!!!!  Next step toward the annual Monster!  :coltshelmet:  :coltshelmet:  :coltshelmet:  :coltslogo:  :coltslogo:  :coltslogo:  :colts:  :colts:  :colts: !!!!!!!

Wouldn't that be weird if we traded Bruce for Norv.

 

Don't go Tom! I can see him leaving though, since he got passed up for the GM job here. :(

I am not a Norv fan....hate seeing that glum face at the podium after a loss.....

 

This is going to make it interesting when/if things go down.......gonna be fun for us!  :)

I've went from liking Arians, to not liking him, now back to hoping that he turns down any HC gig he might get offered. If I knew for sure that Grigson wouldn't offer the job to Clyde, I wouldn't mind Arians moving on, but it scares me to death to think that Clyde could get the OC job.

I know EXACTLY what you mean.  I feel the same way. :D

I agree with you and Jason.....if BA is not here, we need fresh blood in here...not Clyde.  For those that like him...he is a good man....just not my OC.  Jim Caldwell was a great guy too......:)

Bitter sweet. I wish Tom the best in San Diego, and I think it's a really good fit. (By the way, this makes two Polian disciples to get GM gigs this season, and neither of them are his sons.)

 

I wonder what we do to replace him.

 

 

who is the other?

Why do you all assume that Telesco views Bruce Arains as the best choice for the head coaching job ? His main objective is to win , not give the job to someone he knows well. Fact is Arains was never given big consideration for a head coaching job and he's now 60. I just don't think Arains is a slam dunk at this point in time.
