[QUOTE="Packerlifer, post: 587204, member: 1242"] The job was actually first offered to Evashevski but he decided to stay at Iowa. Vainisi knew about Lombardi but he was the personnel guy, not an executive committee member. They were in a quandry after Evashevski turned them down. I doubt Vainisi would have gotten them to go with Lombardi without the in-put from George Halas. As an organization the landing of Lombardi really was a "stumble into" by the Packers. [/QUOTE]
