Gilbride to Retire

Word today is that Kevin Gilbride is going to retire.    If true, this is the best possible terms for a great guy who contributed to 2 Lombardis.   It also doesn't place his son, who may or may not be a good coach, in a tough position should the new coordinator believe in him and want to keep him.

And about the new coordinator.  Rumors are flying about Mike Sullivan.   In his favor are the fact the Eli and Coughlin like him a lot.  Working against him is the fact that he runs pretty same offense as Gilbride and got even worse results with it this year than he did.   I've heard another rumor that Sullivan will be back as QB quarterback, with someone else as OC.  We'll have to wait and see.
