PARCELLS TO DOLPHINS? by Michael David Smith

Citing sources close to the four-time former NFL coach, Jason Cole of Yahoo! Sports is reporting that Bill Parcells could be the Miami Dolphins' general manager in 2008.

"It makes a lot of sense that the Dolphins would be a job he'd be very interested in if it came open," a source close to Parcells told Cole. "But only as the GM. I don't think he'll ever coach again."

Dolphins owner Wayne Huizenga has told the Miami Herald that he plans "internal self-studies" to figure out what's wrong with his 0-7 team and whether solving the team's problems would include replacing General Manager Randy Mueller and/or coach Cam Cameron.

Parcells, who has coached the Giants, Patriots, Jets and Cowboys, has a friendly relationship with Huizenga. The two played golf together at Huizenga's private course in the spring. Parcells might be interested in a job with the Dolphins because he spends a lot of time in the off-season in Florida, although he has twice turned down job offers from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Would an offer from the Dolphins get Parcells to leave ESPN and get back into the NFL? Who knows? Parcells' career moves have been impossible to predict, and there will be rumors linking him to NFL jobs until the day he dies.

First off PFT through Yahoo. Anyway, Parcells is going to sit back and let someone coach while he is the GM, LOL. That's a good one.

Honestly, it wouldnt surprise me. Their were rumrs that before leaving Dallas he inquired about the Giants GM job. IMO if he wants to get back into football, and GM position is the best fit for him
