Now hear me out before you jump all over me on this one.
Maybe a Shaw and Gruden combo is in the works.
Shaw is Willie Shaw's son, so he is a "Football Brat". He has been around the game his entire life, literally.
David also coached under Gruden and Harbaugh where he was Jim's OC.Yes, he was Harbaugh's OC at Uniiversity of San Diego and Stanford!
Shaw also played College ball at Stanford under coaches Dennis Green and Bill Walsh as a WR.
I'll give you time to read this and digest what you just read.
I know he's a College Coach, but his pedigree has NFL all over it. Shaw will not be abrasive like Harbaugh. He will be business like and approachable. But, he will demand discipline and execution.
David Shaw, if you don't want the old NFL retread may be a great fit for a franchise like the Rams. In fact, maybe a Shaw and Gruden Combo could be in the works. Gruden as OC/QB's coach and Shaw can deal with all the other details a HC has to. Gruden may want to coach, but not be the HC.
