    Shocker: New Patriots defensive coordinator Greg Schiano steps down

    Bill Belichick has long expressed respect and admiration for Greg Schiano, and this was the year the two were finally to work together, with Schiano on Belichick’s staff as defensive coordinator.
    That arrangement didn’t last until April.

    So what are the odds that something embarrassing about Schiano comes out. Time for faith and family usually means we are about to hear about sketchy behavior around sex and booze.

    Ummm - maybe not

    He was dumped by Ohio State after coordinating a defense with the talent OSU recruits that gave up 49 points to Purdue and 51 points to Maryland

    Something awful presumably happened in his personal life or something from his past is going to be reported

    Belichick was saying how much he was looking forward to adding him to the staff while on Coach K’s Sirius show so this seems to have gone off the rails suddenly

    Perhaps, but I saw an interesting theory about this elsewhere. Supposedly, Schiano is a fairly religious person and it was posited that he may have been turned off by Kraft's recent, err, "shenanigans"...

    Maybe - but he was on Urban Meyer's staff while Meyer covered up an assistant's spousal abuse and kept cashing the checks during that cluster. He also allegedly knew about Jerry Sandusky's pedophilia while at Penn State, which he denied.

    So Kraft getting caught paying for sex would not appear to be a dealbreaker.

    If Schiano is a devoutly religious man he is in an occupation where he gets to practice judge not lest you be judged a lot

    Correct you are. BUT, sometimes you just have to draw the line and stick to your conviction. I AM NOT saying that is the case here. Schiano ‘could’ be a man more devout today than he was yesterday. I say let it play out and we will see what brought on this resignation. I’m not ready to point fingers and call names on this one just yet. However, my bet is he quit when he saw how much cheating makes up the “Patriot Way”.

    Yeah, I was kidding. I may be wrong but I don't recall any former patriot coaches doing all that well when they left

    And if it turns out someone in his family is critically ill... maybe that isn't necessarily true, then it would be just a tactic he learned from Urban Meyer.

    No doubt Kraft is paying his attorneys a lot - that was an expensive hand job

    Kraft better hope the judge who will rule on Kraft's motion to keep those tapes from going public is a Pats fan

    Post-Newsweek Stations v. Doe, is a ruling that ultimately said the names of men who solicited a woman for prostitution were public because the men lacked a strong privacy interest. You can read the entire ruling by the Florida Supreme Court here and a good summary done by Craig Pittman a few years ago for Slate here. What Kraft’s lawyers probably want to emphasize is a further part of that ruling, in which the supreme court allowed the circuit judge to use his discretion to decide if other records, including videos taken, were public.

    In this day it's politics over everything. Kraft is a Trump supporter, so depending what flavor the judge is those tapes could hit the front page even if he would be a Pats fan.

    I suspect they'll groom Mayo for the job down the road.

    On March 27, 2019, Jerod Mayo was hired by the New England Patriots to be their linebackers coach
