Probably more of the same. lol

I imagine he'll have different clothes in the various press conferences, though.

WTF!! I Can't believe this! There goes all the couching staff except maybe Rathman...f**kin Jed boy and Baalk, but I'm thinking mostly Jed boy, I now hate this pinhead for all eternity..Laughing stock of the NFL once again, who the ehll is the OC, DC?!?! Total melt down, thank you Jed you prick for this

Never wanted to believe that Jed would turn out to be a Jerry Jones type but I guess there's no other way to view Tomsula as the Niners version of Jason Garrett. Bet he gets as much time as he needs to make Jed look like he was the right hire. Garrett failed for how many years before this year and got a 5 year extension. Marvin Lewis, Jason Garrett and now Tomsula. Guys who have iron clad job security as long as they keep boot licking. Hope I'm wrong about Tomsula but Jed has set him up to be viewed as nothing more than that.

I'm more of a wait and see guy myself, but let's not pretend that the entire staff was amazing already. The D was great, but for the entirety of Harbaugh's time with the 49ers, we had one of the worst offenses in the league, year in and year out. The offensive staff was not getting the job done. From game planning to game management, then let us down time and time again.

Just the loss of the defensive staff alone is huge, the incredible work they did in coaching up and developing younger players, late round guys, undrafted guys...etc. I was never any fan of the offensive coaching staff other than Rathman and Solari who I thought got a bum rap.


I'm going to be watching carefully all the people that they hire for the staff. If Tomsula really is widely respected as people like Mariucci claim, he should have no trouble drawing plenty of highly talented, highly regarded assistants with good track records in quality organizations.

We did retain Tomsula from the defense.

i had to talk my youngest daughter off the ledge. she can not understand why ,if they were going to do this, hire fangio instead. i told her there must have been something they did not like about fangio cuz i basically did not know what else to tell her, now if fangio leaves, that is the least of my worries,
that being said, I am just underwhelmed by this, i think my friend phoenix said it best, i am going to try to keep a open mind because to me the biggest hire they do is the qb coach and the offensive coordinator. if they get a top tier staff than i will be more willing to accept this move. i do think our new coach is the anti jh from the standpoint he will not micromanage, he will let the oc do his or her stuff. the key is what happens next and trust me , that is the only thing that keeping me from jumping with todays news. i am not a believer in letting the inmates run the asylum but if this moves also keeps gore, cox, skuta and country around ok thats good news to but right now i just do not know. oh and i hope the first thing the new coach does is to make one locker room and stop this silly house divided two locker room b******t under the former regime.. but phoenix said what i feel

If there is a true top tier staff around Tomsula, I'll be more likely to buy that he was really the best candidate.


If the staff ends up being filled with a bunch of mediocre assistants, people who were convenient rather than widely respected and admired, then this whole thing will look like an even bigger sham and just an excuse to get rid of a pricy coaching staff.

Which is also another loss since I doubt he'll have much time to coach up the DL on the finer points of technique while trying to run a whole team.

Tomsula isnt Singletary

We don't know that yet. I agree that he's more experienced as a coach and a better coach overall but the potential is always there for him to fall flat on his face. The 49ers went out and hired a guy that nobody else even wanted to talk to. The reports about him politicking for the job during the season are also kind of worrisome.


Like I said, I'll reserve further judgment until I see what the coaching staff ends up looking like.

The potential was there for Gase to fall flat on his face as well. I will give it time. I refuse to believe the BS line that most posters seem to be buying into, that this is a deliberate self destruct by ownership, or that they are just looking to save money. Hysterical over reactions all over the place. There is nothing we can do so let's roll with it and give him a shot.

I know. But I imagine his philosophy/approach will be similar, and the coaches hired will be of the same perspective.

Walsh was kept on as a special consultant with the team long after he left as the GM in 01. They knew how important he was to this franchise and kept him as close as they could for as long as he could until he got sick.

Walsh was pushed out by Terry D. and Parrag. (yes Walsh did bring TD in/bad move)

Walsh was working for Stanford at the end when he was very ill.

Being ill had nothing to do w/him leaving the 9ers.

Tough to find, but its out there, and was pretty well documented a little after the fact.

I think you took my post and turned it into what you wanted it to be. When did I say being ill is why he left the 49ers? And it's a fact that Walsh was a special consultant to the team long after he officially left the organization as the GM. Even when he was at stanford. It's whatever, though. Turn it into whatever you want to support whatever you want. It's what people do best around here.

Just so disappointed. Its really sad. Guess we all hoped Jed was more Eddie than Denise & John. Cheap yes man for the coach.

Now that I've went and had a really good leg workout out, cooled off, chugged some protein and come back here... I'm still pissed, what were we thinking... everyone was tripping cuz we might lose Fangio for some one who can fix the offense. Congrats guys we lost Fangio and have no one to fix the offense... I'm going to go work out..

I think the only fitting jacket would be the gold jacket.

This is a nasty post. No evidence at all for this.
