    Alternate reality

    In Jerry's World, NFL coaches should be seen not heard

    Matthew Postins
    Feb 9, 2013 | 10:00 am

    Would you blame Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett if he felt cornered? As owner and general manager Jerry Jones continues to remake Garrett’s coaching staff — as if Garrett has much of a choice — it looks like the NFL template for putting a sitting coach on the proverbial hot seat.

    Step 1
    Underachieve as a football team. Check. The Cowboys are one game over .500 since Garrett took over midway through the 2010 season.

    Step 2
    Force your sitting head coach to remake the coaching staff, or in the case of Jones, just do it for him. Check. By the time the Cowboys are done they will have turned over half-a-dozen coaching positions.

    Step 3
    Put your head coach in a put-up-or-shut-up position for the upcoming season. Check. If the Cowboys fail to make the playoffs again, Garrett will be gone.

    Jerry Jones can try to sell us on this being a consensus approach. But that’s hard to believe.

    The calendar reads 2013, but it feels like 2000. Back then, Dave Campo was the Cowboys head coach, Jones did as he pleased and the Cowboys floundered. At least these Cowboys are mediocre. Campo’s Cowboys, through no real fault of his own, stunk.

    Jones spent most of January remaking the defensive staff, hiring Monte Kiffin as defensive coordinator, necessitating a transition to the 4-3, Cover 2 scheme. That isn’t exactly a short-term proposition.

    He also hired one of Kiffin’s chief lieutenants, defensive line coach Rod Marinelli, to assist Kiffin, and took on Richard Bisaccia as special teams coach.

    On February 4, the Cowboys hired Derek Dooley to coach wide receivers. At least Garrett knows Dooley from their days in Miami. Garrett could use a buddy right now.

    As usual, it’s Jones doing the talking. At the Senior Bowl, Jones spoke to the media at length about the moves that had been announced.

    He also defended Garrett, saying he wanted the young coach to call his own plays and that these moves aren’t designed to undercut him, but to help him. At the same time, Jones all but said he was preparing to take Garrett’s play-calling duties away from him.

    Surely Jason Garrett knew what he was getting into, but you still have to feel for him. If the Cowboys flounder in 2013, he’ll take the blame.

    Jones went to great pains to let us know that Garrett is participating in the process. But in doing so Garrett missed several Senior Bowl practices to interview potential coaches. That’s probably not the best use of his time when you consider there were nearly 150 players that needed scouting.

    Of course, we’ll never know how Garrett feels about all of this. In Jerry’s World, coaches are seen and not heard. The most we’ve heard from Garrett since the season ended is a couple of taped interviews on the Cowboys’ website and a short statement after the firing of defensive coordinator Rob Ryan.

    Jones can try to sell us on this being a consensus approach. But that’s hard to believe. With every other NFL team, the head coach controls his staff and talks with the media.

    When I covered the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, we dealt with head coach Jon Gruden when it came to coaching changes. I talked to the general manager, Bruce Allen, maybe once per year. Ozzie Newsome is the GM for the Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens, and he probably talked more this past week than he did all of last year.

    But we all know the rules are different in Dallas. Jones is the only general manager who owns his own team. He’s the only one who has the authority to do has he pleases. And he does, much to the detriment to the coaches that don’t have the credibility to tell him to take a hike (Jimmy Johnson or Bill Parcells).

    Surely Garrett knew what he was getting into, but you still have to feel for him. If the Cowboys flounder in 2013, he’ll take the blame.

    If the Cowboys succeed, he’ll get none of the credit. And in Jerry’s World, credit matters as much as winning.

    Dallas Wings new women's basketball stars get warm welcome from city

    The Dallas Wings No. 1 draft pick Paige Bueckers brings big hopes for fans in the 2025 season

    The newest members of women's basketball team the Dallas Wings are already making waves: Paige Bueckers, the No. 1 pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft, and her fellow new recruits were welcomed by a press conference at Dallas City Hall on April 23 — part of the Dallas Wings' official introduction of the rookie class.

    According to a releasae, Dallas Wings draftees Paige Bueckers, Aziaha James, Madison Scott, JJ Quinerly, and Aaronette Vonleh were welcomed by Mayor Eric Johnson and City Manager Kimberly Bizor Tolbert, and gifted with cowboy hats by the City of Dallas Economic Development Corporation.

    The team will start the 2025-2026 season playing at the Memorial Arena in the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center. Their home arena is College Park Center on the UT Arlington campus, with one exception: They'll be playing their June 27 game against the Indiana Fever, featuring superstar Caitlin Clark, at American Airlines Center in Dallas.

    Fans will have to pony up the big bucks for that epic game, with the price for two tickets starting at $255, although the upper 300 level has not yet been opened for sale. Those wanting to sit near the floor behind the baseline will run themselves a pretty $1,205 for two seats.

    After Clark joined the WNBA in 2024, almost half of the other teams in the league moved their home games against the Fever to larger arenas. All of the other Wings home games are currently scheduled to take place at College Park Center.

    If all goes as planned, 2025 will be the last season for the Wings at that venue. In 2024, the team announced plans to move to the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas Memorial Arena in Dallas, starting with the 2026 season.

    Bueckers joins the Wings after closing out her college career by winning her first national championship, with Connecticut dominating the previous champions, South Carolina, 82-59. She's considered by many to be the league's next superstar.

    The 2025 Dallas Wings season comes with much anticipation. Since the end of the 2024 season, the Wings have revamped their front office, which included the hiring of Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations and General Manager Curt Miller and Head Coach Chris Koclanes. In addition to the 2025 WNBA Draft Class, Miller made significant roster moves during free agency which included signing reigning WNBA Most Improved Player DiJonai Carrington, 2022 All-Rookie Team pick NaLyssa Smith, former Wings guard Tyasha Harris and 2020 All-WNBA Second Team member Myisha Hines-Allen.
