Titans search for new GM and coach
The Tennessee Titans are looking for a new general Randy Gregory Jerseymanager and coach with no timeline to fill either job. The man running the searches for both positions just had the interim tag taken off his own job after coming out of retirement a few months ago. This franchise has http://www.officialcowboysnflstore.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_RANDY_GREGORY_JERSEY.htmlwon just five games the past two seasons - its worst stretch since 1983 and 1984. Yet, the Titans have Marcus Mariota at quarterback and the top overall draft pick in the 2016 draft. Titans president and CEO Steve Underwood said Monday they were ''overrun'' by requests from people wanting to be interviewed http://www.officialcowboysnflstore.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_RANDY_GREGORY_JERSEY.htmlfor either general manager or coach once news broke about the positions. Now they need to hire the right people. ''We already have one of those pieces, or at least we strongly believe that we do in Marcus,'' Underwood said. ''We need to find people to surround him with that will help him mature as a NFL quarterback and lead our franchise to the next success.'' Underwood relieved Ruston Webster of his job as general manager Monday. Interim coach Mike Mularkey will stick around while the Titans search for a coach to replace Harry CarsonJerseyKen Whisenhunt who was fired Nov. 3. Mularkey is a candidate for the job. Controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk said in a statement that the Titans have fallen far short of the goal to be one of the NFL's elite franchises. ''We share our fans' http://www.nflgiantsofficial.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_HENRY_HYNOSKI_JERSEY.htmlfrustration about the team's recent performance, and we are committed to doing everything we can to return our team to a perennial postseason contender,'' Strunk said. Webster was promoted to general manager Jan. 18, 2012 after two seasons as vice president of player personnel. He also worked with Seattle and Tampa Bay. But the Titans went 18-46 in his seasons and just 5-27 the last two years. Going 3-13 landed the franchise the top overall draft pick for the first time since 1978 when the then-Houston Oilers traded for that pick. ''Does that mean the fact we won only five games in the last two years, that all that's all on Ruston?'' Underwood said. ''No. But he was the general manager then. Our talent was acquired then, and I think in making her decision Amy looked first to what is the principal measurement tool that's used in our business, and that's wins and losses.'' Vin Marino, vice president of football administration, will run football operations during the search for a new general manager.
