Shanahan sounds like he already knows Ryans is the guy they planned on giving it to all along whenever Saleh left. Just reading between the lines:

"We've got a lot of other good guys on our staff, and I know there will be a number of options," head coach Kyle Shanahan said earlier this month. "... So, I expect whatever we end up deciding here, and obviously, we'll wait to see what happens with Saleh, but I know the Niners will be alright."

At least this year he's prepared for his staff to be raided. I still remember after that 4-12 season before the Super Bowl loss, he lost some staff and was unprepared for them leaving. (Scangarello I think, was one of the surprise poaches that I could recall - that offseason).

We also don't seem overly concerned about any of our other staff getting taken, or even front office personnel. We must've come up with good contingency plans... Hopefully?

Any good leadership structure will have a grow and replace plan. Great leaders work themselves out of a job by allowing themselves to be replaceable. If they've hired the right people in that spot, then yeah, they'll be fine.

Still saying if he leaves, promote Ryans and hire pat Willis as LB coach.

Pat was an incredible leader, we need that mentorship for all-pro Fred.

Pat is not fit to coach or we would be coaching

I actually asked him this question on his IG live stream. He said he may consider coaching at some point, but he's enjoying retirement for a while. Coaching is a grind, so it makes sense that players dont want to jump directly into it after they retire. Willis would be a fantastic LB coach whenever he decides to return to the game.

with no proof how would he be fantastic, just cause he was a great player ?
