I'm sure Daboll just loved having his name thrown out there. LOL!!

The better question is "who was Brian Daboll at the time of SB36."

My impression from Holley's book is that he was one of the many up and coming young staffers and Holley and said he's make a good coach someday but I don't think he was much higher on the ladder than Walsh at that time.

You are correct.

He was a defensive assistant in 2001, yes.

Wide receivers coach from 2002-2006, at which time he basically, as it goes, asked to be promoted to quarterbacks coach, was denied by Belichick, and instead took the QB coach position with the Jets.

But really, I think most people here have heard of Daboll. He's not anyone new.

Considering the bang-up job he's done with the Jets QBs, it's a shame we didn't keep him.

SpyGate is history. Or is it?

Jets assistant coach Brian Daboll, a former Patriots assistant who apparently quizzed ex-Patriots video assistant Matt Walsh on what he witnessed at the Rams’ pre-Super Bowl walk-through in February, 2002, will be interviewed for a second time by league officials, it was learned this afternoon.

Daboll was interviewed several months ago by the league, as was Jets coach Eric Mangini, another former Pats assistant, but Daboll’s name emerged prominently after commissioner Roger Goodell’s press conference today in Manhattan.

Daboll, then a defensive assistant for the Patriots, tried to pick Walsh’s brain on what he witnessed during the walk-through, league counsel Gregg Levy said. Walsh told Daboll that he noticed RB Marshall Faulk was being used as a kick returner, Levy said. Daboll also asked Walsh about offensive formations, particularly how the tight ends were being used. That conversation lasted less than 10 minutes, and Daboll and Walsh were the only two people in the room, Levy said.

Daboll apparently didn’t relate that to the league in his first interview. Walsh revealed it today in his three-hour meeting with commissioner Roger Goodell.

“What Matt Walsh told us today was inconsistent with our prior understanding,” league spokesman Greg Aiello said in an e-mail. “Brian Daboll did not tell us that.”

Daboll, through the Jets, released a statement.

“I have cooperated with the league’s investigation and was completely truthful and forthcoming,” said Daboll, the Jets’ QB coach and a close friend of Mangini. “The league has requested to speak with me again. In light of this request, I will not comment further other than to say that I have been and will continue to be completely truthful, cooperative and forthcoming with the league.”

Even if Walsh did give information to Daboll, he apparently didn’t violate any rules. Goodell said there will be no further sanctions against the Patriots. Walsh told Goodell that he wasn’t instructed to spy on the walk-through, and that he was in the stadium only to prepare sideline equipment for the game.
