Ted Marchibroda was our head coach, and we owned a 3-7 record in mid-November, on our way to finishing 6-10. The Modells, Art and team president David, had made the decision that Ted would be let go after the season ended.
What complicated the issue is that, rightfully so, we wanted to start our search about whom should replace the respected Coach Marchibroda, who was buried yesterday after passing last Saturday morning.
God love Art Modell, he often made decisions on a quick study. And, obviously, he made a lot of right decisions in what, hopefully, will one day be recognized as a Hall of Fame career.
