Reports: Ruskell Will NOT Return

[Hawk096]

Pro Football Weekly is reporting that Ruskell will not return after his contract runs out after this year as GM. The sources are reported to be inside, but I will say this PTW is one source I don't find so reliable. They were the site that reported Housh was signing with the Vikings and Curry had signed a deal with the Lions. So I don't believe this one as much as I would if it came from another site. However Rotoworld has also linked it which they tend to do only if it appears true or accurate. Having said that the question will now arise as to who takes over? Is this a sign that Holmgren will take over? Or is just Paul Allen knowing that Ruskell doesn't give the Seahawks the best chance to improve the team for the future? How will this effect Mora? Yes Mora is in his first-year with Seattle, but truth is Mora was Ruskell's pick. Will the new guy coming in want his own guy? I guess we will just have to wait and see, but the way it looks right now Ruskell's days are limited in Seattle.

This made my day.

Remember my conversation with Holmgren at the airport a few months ago?

The one where he seemed very confident he would be returning to the NFL and his plans were to stay here in Seattle.

Can only mean one thing... I sure hope so.

Danny O'Neil thinks its a bogus report.

I, on the other hand, hope it's legit.

Danny O'Neil should find a new career if he thinks Ruskell will stick around after several unsuccessful seasons.

He never said he thinks Ruskell will stick around, but he says the report that they've already decided to let him walk is bogus.

As I mentioned Pro Football Weekly isn't the best with accurate stories.

O'Neill talks about the reasons this doesn't appear to be accurate. I hope it is, but given the reasons he stated I beg to differ with the report. I don't think Ruskell will return, but I still think it's too early for that type of an announcment right now.

I agree, 96; makes sense. Tho I remain hopeful!
