Default NFL Network: Dolphins prepared to give Harbaugh $8m a year

NFL.com news: Dolphins move to forefront of Harbaugh hunt; 49ers mull options



The Dolphins went from 1-15 to 11-5 and an AFC East Title, which was absolutely amazing, regardless of Brady being out.

Now two of the biggest keys of that turnaround (Parcells and Sparano) will be gone.

That link didn't work for me. I think this is what you were referring to, though:

Maybe it's just me, but I think Harbaugh's career in the NFL has Spurrier written all over it.

Its sickening how they have treated Tony Sparano in this whole mess.

I don't think Harbaugh has come close to having the resumee of Spurrier or Saban. i don't get why teams are willing to throw this much money at him.

Jayson Taylor throws Sparano under the bus:
Wednesday, also speaking on WQAM-560, Taylor took a break from playoff preparations with the Jets to lend considerable heft to Williams' concerns.

"I played for Tony for one year [2009] in that kind of system and atmosphere," Taylor said on The Joe Rose Show. "What Ricky was saying is true in a lot of senses. It's a tough work environment."

Taylor credited the Dolphins coach with being "very detailed," but said Sparano and his staff can take things to an extreme.

Alot of these guys tried to be Tuna and it just doesn't work out for them. BB learned that too.

The owner of the Dolphins wants to have Lakers East, yet he's in a division with the Pats (the best) and the Jest (the loudest). He's desperate for attention and needs "a big name". Harbaugh is hyped to high hell because, despite Cowher et al, the coaching candidates are thin when looking at the number of openings (a reason I believe a lot of the "hot seat coaches" have been resigned this year).

Desperation + Hype = Dolphins hire Harbaugh and pay him $8M
