00:00 Additional news the 49ers
00:02 Have interviewed Daniel Bullocks their DB coach
00:05 for their vacant defensive coordinator job, this is
00:09 The guy in my opinion. I don't know all I know about him is that he's been here
00:14 he would he coached under Salah D'Amico and the players like him and it seems like
00:18 If you want a guy to run your system, he knows it if you want a guy to get buying from the players
00:24 He's got it
00:25 So, I mean, I don't know how good of a play caller he is
00:28 But you didn't know how good of a play caller freaking
00:30 Salah D'Amico were gonna be before they got the job because they've never done it before so I don't understand why the Niners are nervous
00:35 all of a sudden the way I interpret this I think I
00:38 Think books is gonna get the job and I think they're trying to make it seem like
00:42 they had an exhaustive search they look for everyone and
00:46 He was he wasn't just the guy in-house. He was the best man for the job
00:52 And so that's the way I interpret it like talk to Staley talk to merit really really took took our time
01:00 Took our time with it man, but yeah, it was Bullock so long. That's what I think. I
01:07 Mean Bullock's was was the guy that I thought from the beginning
01:12 I don't I mean, I don't know that he's gonna be the guy. I think that he would be a fine fine candidate
01:18 He is a fine candidate
01:19 I think he'd be a fine coach, but it does beg the question that you brought up
01:23 I think last week when we did this and I didn't really think about it from this perspective
01:26 But if he's that good why not last year? Why did you do what you did last year if Bullocks was there and
01:34 Bullocks one year one more year of experience was what put him over the top. That doesn't make a lot of sense
01:40 I to me it really feels like
01:42 They didn't necessarily have a plan. All they knew is that Wilkes wasn't a good fit, which I understand
01:48 They really went out probably swung and miss on some really big candidates and now they're like, okay
01:55 I mean we you know
01:57 We might go in-house
01:58 But we better at least do our due diligence before we make this higher and try to save face a little bit
02:04 I I don't I don't know that we should be necessarily confident that whoever it is is gonna be better than what was already here
02:11 in Wilkes I
02:13 Have a question for you, Jesse. Mm-hmm
02:15 Okay, so Kyle Shanahan gets his team's head coach
02:19 Hiring Robert Saleh pretty controversial. No one's heard of him in his 30s up-and-coming coach
02:26 Knocks it out of the park becomes a head coach
02:29 Replaced him with Tomiko Ryan's a lot of people including me say I can you really trust this guy?
02:33 He has no experience up-and-coming coach in his 30s really energetic knocks out of the park becomes a head coach
02:41 You had a you had a template it worked and now since then you've pivoted to failed head coaches
02:47 Why
02:51 Failed head coaches in their 50s why or whatever age they are
02:55 Bailey Wilkes no
02:58 At least Dave Merritt isn't a failed ex head coach
03:01 But it seems like Daniel Bullock's is like right in line with the other two who were so successful
03:06 What am I not getting here? I don't know
03:09 Well, I don't necessarily know either. I mean, I don't know if there's just something that's missing there
03:14 But for me, I mean it's better than Staley if you're asking me like the order of what I would prefer at this point
03:21 I like the merit thing because it's new it's fresh. It's a spagnolo defense
03:26 They just lost to this defense in the Super Bowl were held the 19 points through four quarters
03:31 I like the idea of that but bollocks I like I would rather go bollocks than staley
03:37 I just the staley thing makes zero sense to me to me. I I just I think that is a major backstep
03:43 Regardless of what you think of Wilkes. I think staley is a major backstep
03:47 So I wouldn't be like pissed that is bollocks by any mean again
03:51 That was the prediction from the beginning but taking this long to land on an internal candidate one that was here last year
03:57 That you passed on it does it is a little weird. It is a little weird
04:02 Yeah, cuz like you're gonna bring in someone that would bollocks. Is it what he's not what enough
04:07 He's not
04:08 Smart enough. He doesn't understand scheme enough. Like what is it? Because
04:11 That's what you brought Steve Wilkson. He's not linebacker. No, yeah, whatever like Steve was really really good and
04:19 He they still didn't buy in so
04:22 What do you know, I don't know what the missus
04:28 Why is it gonna work this time I
04:32 Don't know again like really quick
04:36 You're not gonna let the new coordinator, I mean if you're bringing him in for his acumen
04:40 You're not letting him make decisions. Anyway, you're not letting him bring his scheme with them. Anyway, you're gonna tell him what to do
04:46 Fred Warner Nick Bosa, Kyle Shanahan. You're all that John Lynch
04:50 You're all gonna tell him what to do and where to stand when he when he does it. So what?
04:54 What are you hiring? Oh, this guy's smarter than that guy. You're gonna tell him what to do anyway
05:01 Yeah, right just bring in a guy at the players want to play for because they're gonna call they know what to they don't want
05:07 To be coached. They don't want to be coached
05:09 They're gonna tell whoever it is where we're a four-man rush team. And this is what we do. We play these coverages
05:14 They're gonna tell whoever the next defensive coordinator is what they do. They're gonna be coaching him
05:19 I'm sorry, it doesn't make any sense to do this again
05:22 Unless it's Dave Merritt. I like Dave Merritt. Okay moving on. I want I wonder what char
05:27 I wonder if they asked if they asked our various ward though. Do they ask him about Merritt and
05:32 What he you know what?
05:34 I mean like that's got to be because staley, you know that that Nick's gonna reach out to Joey
05:39 All right, tell me about staley. They've got it. Also asked her various ward in-house. Hey
05:44 You were coached by this guy. What do you think?
05:47 We and we've got a multimillionaire is what he's gonna say and we've we've got bollocks. Yeah, we've got merit
05:53 Yeah, just be honest with us safe space. Who would you choose?
05:57 Who would you prefer and I think that that has to hold some weight because he's been coached by both of them directly
06:02 Yep, I agree. I think it's a great call and I think these are two really good candidates is
06:06 Bullocks better than Dave Merritt if so make him the head make him the defensive coordinator if not Merritt's a good option, but
06:14 staley Nick Sorenson
06:17 I'm like this one since been here like two years
06:20 Staley had one good year. I think these two guys I think they're finally getting it. You know, why quality control they listened
06:27 We tried to tell him and they listened I was it us or was it Nick Bosa did Nick Bosa quietly just given them
06:32 Keep looking don't look
06:36 You
