Phins keeping 9 coaches from Philbin's staff!!

The Miami Dolphins cleaned house.

Sort of.

After a 6-10 season, their original head coach, offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator are gone.
But they did bring back nine coaches from that failed season — including Lou Anarumo and Darren Rizzi, who were Dan Campbell’s top assistants after Joe Philbin’s firing.

Why?

Dolphins football czar Mike Tannenbaum, following the first day of Senior Bowl practice here Tuesday, explained, saying new coach Adam Gase and general manager Chris Grier were in on the decision.

“The coaching staff in particular reports to Adam and certainly Chris and I made some suggestions, but they [all] went through and were vetted through a pretty rigorous process. They wouldn’t be on our staff if Adam didn’t feel good about them.”

Tannenbaum said retaining nine coaches “was the right decision, not the easy one.”

Added Grier: “They’re good coaches and good people and obviously Adam did his background on them and stuff and feels comfortable with them. It’s good to have a little bit of continuity. They’ll help them in the transition.”
