Automatically Generated Transcript (may not be 100% accurate)

" Sure we're about the Fed made WEEI. Sports Radio record this will be our. Third day in a row talking a subject about. Boston College that we ever done that before and eleven and -- I don't know we've that was that gambling scandal scandal once upon a time relative values morals that the four hours and no I mean with Dan Henning -- talk about Rick you know -- again and again yeah. Olin goes that me -- I was I was so and more in a while ago but now now. Maybe when they were second in the country last year I think indefinitely and it's just that was definitely."

" Second in the country for ten minutes how appropriate that on what is without question the Macias day of the entire winter season. Gene and jags will attempt to hammer out their very. Messy divorce over Boston college and -- a stretch that analogy just a little bit further no matter what jags wanted out of this deal going in -- open. The jet to the Seahawks -- anything else. Did he not handle this about a sloppy as he possibly could hand yeah."

" Yeah I mean I think it could have been handled way obviously you want an out and obviously decided this is the way to get out you know with. Is the deeply both threats -- armies is good yeah I get bellied up and we'll see how much he gets paid you get some money but. He could've done it right let's go look at different version of Manny isn't it yet it well. I thought that's what I hate right painted -- anyone in with that and I'm not -- and I'm not. Yet I put it this way this is -- that my reaction the whole thing is. I expected more from the guy just expected more right I thought. He was a I thought better of him and I thought I didn't think he won an out first of all but mother realized he did he doesn't like college -- the -- He seemed like a guy in media would know better than we would that. Would do with the right way right -- and wouldn't be such a weasel it this of all the news I would rid this morning the one that -- perhaps bugs me the most is. He doesn't return his call right we don't exclusive Q you're not Amanda you can't call someone back."

" We don't -- fill in the blanks force -- all right jags despite what you read this morning jags NG did have a phone conversation last night around 9 o'clock really did speak. During that short time they they decided to meet this morning word jags will meet face to face Regina and you'll likely be fired. So that is your fill in the blanks here that will happen this morning. Frank spell as -- in Jack -- now considered the favorites to replace him but other external candidates will be interviewed do you suspect this meeting will be just pay what did you do this for why didn't you call me. Why eventually let me know your fired -- will go to step beyond that say. How can we get out of this deal how can we reach some sort of settlement here that he could take a long long BBs take longer."

" I think it and coaches contracts are complicated as we discuss this today and -- not just occasion salary three years three million. It's a base out area which is a lot lower than a million right and he'll be lucky to get that -- is going to be it's -- that's going to be a long process yeah along -- and let's face it I don't think gene is in the giving mood right. And now what do you need you go ahead take -- timing -- to get a box again loaded up we get out of the office. And don't be talking -- the assistant coaches in the -- on your way out lately you'll fizzle at Boston College to go places -- bees swarmed -- yeah I think inside edition is that Trent Hunter had Access Hollywood goes GMC guys there there's dog and Brady in in California they're -- they're going to -- there's there's a and Rush Limbaugh has little drop in at the end of the segments is. Don't worry you mainstream media that your show prep will continue in a moment yet because he thinks that you listen to him to show your. So I going to say that for on -- is behalf don't worry all the Boston College media. Your show prep as is going to -- has only I've found interest in what's meter pointed out. Yesterday that he is a good relationship with Jim -- from Atlanta and could be the next offensive coordinator we pick up the paper there it is could be the next offensive coordinator. You point doubt that they cleaned out half the staff in in in Green Bay. Could be back in Green Bay I think. I you see here's here's that he is what we'd. Is what I suspect the something definitive it's not a look at what was opening yes I can get one of those right its definitive I think meter. You on the head yesterday I think you're gonna it's gonna turn out to be. -- going to turn out to be my impression to Russian wow I don't think you had you haven't nailed down and you suspect suspected that the Seattle job was open. It was a good job a good paying job and and a job to -- profile up -- Hasselbeck is there -- in and more is there who coached with in the probably good friends there that and so there that clearly you don't do wish you played in my my theories you never leave like. You girlfriend wife boyfriend husband Alyssa someone else it's like he'll do it's and I don't I'm unhappy and want to go -- some time alone play the field. It's a -- Ottawa is always someone else yeah it might even be just in. As someone in the vacuum my deal maybe yeah maybe idea her well edit it it takes your Hartnett and in in new dressed and help and he drifted. He found someone else and that someone else I believe -- nailed it is Jim Mora and that opening offensive coordinator in Seattle."

" And that takes us to the next piece of fill in the blanks and this wasn't really a passive kind of approach apparently but just check Gusinsky you wasn't sitting there minding his own business and getting his airline tickets and his recruiting schedule all in line. When somebody from the New York Jets had just hey Jeff we'd be adjusted talking with you this was an active participation. By this guy and by the way much just with a New York Jets we rating and a number of areas the jackets Hinske made multiple inquiries into returning. To the National Football League. -- Hinske put out feelers for offensive coordinator positions as well as head coaching spots. All over. The National Football League so if you had this vision object is to ski sitting in his office in Boston College doing all of his Boston College eagle football work and the ball just happens to ring. That wasn't the case the -- goal and I support -- idea about exactly this -- Parcells and the phone from the old Foxboro stadium and."

" Anyone -- grudges briefly pulled his his anger yet here. Is is not seed in the big picture if that or me. I'd be fire and vases cigar in adamant the opening up for -- it if they were preparing for a bowl game and he was -- yeah NFL happening -- they were. Recruiting. Battling against whoever you know against them their ACC -- EC rivals battle in North Carolina MG's daily average right right tech. Four top recruits in Steve Conroy has one kid in the adjustment something. Top recruit who actually tells rivals dot com. I may not go to BC. On January 16 for scheduled visit him because of the head coaching situation I'm Justin brown Justin brown how they were going to receiver from Delaware so he is under did jet magazines get it -- game too much credit. He is undermining. The efforts of the next guy you think he put his full Iverson to Vanderbilt game as an example -- it's gonna always said it would Parcells yeah how could you yeah as you've seen coaches when -- indeed put their full effort it's a point 47 -- deal there immersed I don't even though the you know -- the only -- the vice president is they don't know what's going on in the world they're just. They're animals that is the if they indeed are committed devoted to their to their game to the cause and and."

" Affecting his job is even tougher leading up to Vanderbilt game because -- was such an emotional let -- against Virginia Tech to a man they all expect Obama Virginia Tech was he committed to that started -- just any phone -- left by the way I can only hope I think the only question the only question we have today is there's -- already acquired the phone records from jagr -- always do that tomorrow is in the process he all right in my cell phone is the Boston College -- cell -- because they all have -- move and now and well."

" Maybe he has I think. You know we -- those records we says all week that -- more of the story I think the more to the story is what makes people who post so pissed right off for -- was up harvesting it wasn't just hey cool the Jets. -- flattered it's only been what two weeks since Mangini got one yet you know putting just came up but his. You know his his heart has drifted in a long before that yeah and in in and he has decided and talked to his wife you can be short and his agent. That he would like to find out what's out there in the NF focuses in NFL guy I like call this recruiting well that's BS the comes with a Buick Costco."

" Are you guys are so -- and he's not somebody who's got some NFL contacts -- he does yes and and you know what you're right we were stupid meter was not as stupid as we were or as any of the writers or any of the TBS -- Because he looks at and T Atlanta Jim Mora Jim Mora needs the sisco are you more I was looking at all -- Mike McCarthy to look at how many systems cease -- you know there are. A million openings in if you want to give back to the NFL you can't wait till. You know February march April that you have to -- now the German and he does it mean he's. Made up his mind hope the timing sure don't know where he lives with his of for sale sign Carlos right now leafy suburb this year -- minutes already made an offer that. What always -- that the the Jets were Colin -- and keep the post that all these other teams would be intricate a wider it is why why this wasn't some Korea you're right Thursday generous friend or whatever here's why this some credibility as well we didn't -- didn't immediately set off. Alarms is. Because of the success of the no name coaches it's kind of the theme yet look what to expect -- as -- Mike -- on -- I mean there are guys that's why -- such a hot name this -- screw. Brian Billick and Marty Schottenheimer and Jim fossil. You know let's get the next Mike Smith let's find them expect the next -- I think it's a trend he went down and that fills the trendy ready drives a lot of copycat stuff going on and one of them is fine the next Paronto find the next Smith find the next known name guys. And forget those celebrity coaches forget Brian Billick now and and and so you say who the who is it to a checked into the bushes and find note that and the white teeth up there BC but -- hot stuff he's been in the NFL. I didn't I don't think it necessarily. Stunk. You know one -- his name was initially."

" Well and another on an oddly enough plays and -- is -- really -- this yeah all the stuff very nice job here you have to give credit -- action dot com missed the eagle BC website oddly enough jags in you stand as -- the Jets to the point where it's much he's much higher on the list than he was at first. It's against -- also needs a job now willingness to lose his job to obtain the Jets position has impressed some of the brass making the decision according to sources. So -- load off his. Last legitimate shot. Brian and Brian -- and Armas who's the jets' offer."

" Of course is probably not not only Brian Hardin and Brian was there at in the Jets but. Bryant she is not going to get the job either I don't think yeah it was part of the Jets deep I don't know but Jets offensive coordinator of BC coach. Who's more likely to be cool by the way a lot of players are we have been a candidate for the Jets job. Yeah good biggie let's hit the defensive. Jags this little weasel."

" What with the -- greater degree so weasel meter really well you lied to and I like draw world village that is not this is a weasel move. And I know the first call will be Q at what all coaches did allow coaches do not agree not what all coaches do. Some high profile guys do. It's happened before that the first time but so what all coaches do and I point out just look at -- season with Al Skinner and Jerry York or do -- mean. Look around this -- coaches who don't do this."

" Imagine the boiling cauldron that this guy jag -- in ski found himself in trying to figure out how who's going to handle this meter win. You know with the timing was double -- Bruschi knows that the timing was and is in the National Football League schedule of things and when coaches get hired and yet. Functioning under the me me. -- Don't surprise me let me know what's going on it's an object since -- and I know -- told we don't surprise him but if I'd call him and say. The Jets called me which which we seal stupidly -- heatley thought was the case much less paging just you know 'cause I know you wanna. Be kept up that date on everything on column -- Seahawks and calling Jim Mora and I'm caught on the Jets and a column about about."

" just seemed like that -- that would change if not going to sit -- GMB could say. That you know I'm I'm going to go back the NFL someday they're friends that's the bizarre and yeah they're very height and I think that's another reason to fool people feel so burned as they were. Playing golf every Friday you know he thought he had his guy right he was not right you know Kraft and Parcells with a tolerated each other these guys -- tight. And ME he could save my wife doesn't like it here I know some they want to be back in the NFL. And I loved it here BC but I just don't feel the Cubs have already out for this at some point right and prepare him yeah. An and apparently didn't do that apparently he is totally -- quite an actor."

" Yeah -- quoted in the in the globe today in this and -- sort of -- a little bit more light on it really is kind of confirms what we believe to be true about the relationship and why. -- people people felt burned. When somebody does a quote when somebody -- MEI and shake your hand and tells you something that to -- is as important as a contract. When somebody gives you a break. And then after two years the first chance you have to go interview you're going to take off. That's a little bit and any pauses well that hurts especially when you really like this guy and I like him. You think he's a really good guy and a good coach and now here we are I certainly would not have hired a coach. If I thought he was going to leave in two years the understanding was. I wanted a coach who's going to be here for a long time and I thought I had one."

" To understand that some people a lot of people don't like BC and just wish from the worst -- enjoy in this Asian people hey they're jealous I understand we've taken many calls from them this week and heard them on other shows. Boat where it -- you wear the what why it's hard. To have a problem with a guy who looks another guy and the guy -- Why is that because all coaches don't know the all coaches don't do because that's the way -- know it's not the way it works out typically -- I mean why is that not. Why why can't -- can't we reach a consensus. That that is not a a at auto goal honorable bring -- do -- It's amazing following year a piece. Province -- your UConn -- you -- PC that's fine. One guy looks the other guy and the -- analyze. Anyone defend a liar because I don't know Nick Saban lied once -- or because Rick pitino was only province for a short time -- know."

" Defending that he lied to people are saying that. Did BC stabbing gene didn't handle it well either they leaked the story that that he was going to get fired he took the job so no. All the old Donald thought you're you're two steps ahead now the story leaked and gene found out from a reporter -- his head -- when you're interviewing the Jets right so that don't -- the mysteriously comes out that she's going to be fired if he if he interviews with the Jets -- exactly what -- Pratt. The match mentally was listen -- the gene had to find out from a from a reporter who called about the fault of what do you think about your head coach interview with the New York Jets -- he said say what. So because she -- because jags didn't handle it the right way she's going to fire and basically -- And so is burned you know he's getting he's getting fired."

" Still -- because of how we handled it is because he did it. Because he went behind his back -- and after looking -- and -- I'm going to be here you went to bat with me with the administration at Boston College you stuck your neck out for me I know I told you even before you did it if you stick your neck out for me -- this will be here would you do lose together we got a program to -- Boston college and two years of the process appeal I'm --"

" I wear jeans ego gets into went okay you know. In the Jamal -- doesn't -- him anything so early control things hold true dad goes and took things to run a clean program and win football games that he did that better than any. Anyone in recent years Hollywood is not a ball clean all."

" Dog clean program better than so you're on the phone as ever was prepared for a bowl game with -- we don't know is Jana choked with the Jets with Seattle with Jim Mora would Mike McCarthy Anderson walked. You know what would -- pay our more responsibilities be India. Could -- you we've seen it take you you talked about leaving. In the middle of the most important game of the year most important game of your two year tenure. That's that's clean that's all."

" First of all we don't know what he was busy night calls during these series championship game you can't we've only heard one side of the story -- calling all the media outlets -- our guys. I've already -- that I did not I don't wanna know what I'm more we don't want I'm."

" Cell phone last night just kept bothering me see you're just want to muddy the waters my computer I might question remains. How do you defend the guy who looked the other guy and the and lied. I mean I need to spend that look Obama can't beat -- he told them -- this one guy look the other guy in the eye and lied. And -- you and others not you alone many many people. Want to excuse excuse and able. Didn't bend the guy who lives and Chris. Are they red clay programme. On a clean program he looked as Boston the ideal lineup it cleanly Philippe -- nothing he'd."

" WG deeply bold to say who's going to clean program and England's football and it -- on the field of nothing right WWI wasn't the best candidate for the Johnny -- ensure higher unsolicited and could -- in the recruiting trail that's okay if Jackson is the best coach for the job should -- part about it but I. RC AA -- drooped and he was cool."
