Not sure. He had an interview for the job today, after the victory parade in NY. But some of the ESPN pundits think that Jim Fassell has the inside track on the job (prior head coaching experience) and that Spags is just going through the motions. Defensive coordinators don't always make the greatest head coaches--Romeo Crennell being the leading example. Buddy Ryan is another. And Spagnuolo is just a kid, really. His mentor, Jim Johnson, has been the DC in Philly forever and has apparently never considered a head coaching job.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
