Before everyone goes crazy, it is not another Zo situation. They actually want someone who will be committed to the job on a somewhat full-time basis. Ed lives in Atlanta might not have to time to commit quite to the level that UM wants. More of an an Ed issue than a UM issue imo
 
How he is not in staff if not coaching safeties is a special type of retarded

there's no indication that he even has an interest in coaching or if he's a good coach at all given his resume is a single season in buffalo (three years ago) as an assistant db coach that wasn't retained. reed was that incredibly rare athlete that had immense physical gifts to match his football genius, but there are huge parts of his game that can't be taught. that said, i'd take him over banda in a heartbeat.

Narrator: They always go crazy.

Wow, Barry is really going out on a limb: "It appeared not especially likely as of Thursday but not entirely out of the question."
 
This next part is incredibly sarcastic so preemptively don’t get your panties in a bunch..

Barry Jackson’s next update:

“Jeremy Shockey is now the favorite for the chief of staff role but may not be the favorite. Shockey was unavailable to comment. Blake James has reached out to Dwayne Johnson’s people as well but hasn’t heard anything back, stay tuned. Also they may not have reached out to anyone. Also, there may not be a chief of staff job, maybe. Maybe not.”
