[QUOTE="David22, post: 587151, member: 10412"] I found a lot more candidates here from all my hard work and research: Bob Schnelker, former assistant under Vince Lombardi and Phil Bengston from 1966 to 1971, and again an assistant from 1982 to 1985, was a candidate before Dan Devine was named head coach. **** Modzelewski, defensive coordinator under Forrest Gregg, was a candidate to succeed Gregg in 1988. **** Coury, a guy who has nothing but coaching background on his resume, was another candidate to succeed Gregg in 1988. Dennis Green (yes, the one who used to coach the Cardinals) was another in 1988. Richie Petitbon, former Bears/Rams/Redskins safety from 1959 to 1972, was another in 1988. Joe Bugel, like Coury with his resume, was another in 1988. Johnny Roland, who as a Packers assistant in 1974 and again in 2004, was another in 1988. Barry Alvarez, who has been on and off as the head coach of the Wisconsin Badgers college football team and was just named the head coach again just recently, was a candidate to follow after Ray Rhodes' firing. And the ones who were interviewed before McCarthy took the job in 2006 were Sean Payton, Maurice Carthon, Ron Rivera, Wade Phillips, Tim Lewis, Jim Bates, and Russ Grimm. I read that Jon Gruden and Steve Mariucci were targeted by Thompson after Rhodes got fired but they weren't able to leave their current teams. I guess they were targeted by Thompson like how Thompson was interested in Childress. I wrote down everyone I could find so far and I learned that with all these candidates plus the ones who did coach, Green Bay would have had 52 different head coaches (including when Thompson targeted Gruden, Mariucci, and Childress) in their 95-year history. I learned that there was a guy who was named Willard Ryan who was head coach in 1919 and another named Joe Hoeffel in 1921. 52 head coaches in 95 years...now that's quite a lot! Like I said, if there's any more you can find who I didn't find, please send them my way. [/QUOTE]
