RuskellSeattle Times writer Danny O’Neil came on the show today to discuss the rumor started on ProFootballWeekly.com saying Tim Ruskell has been informed he will not be brought back as the Seahawks GM next season. When asked for confirmation on this story, Danny stated:

“I have not been able to confirm the report that went up on ProFootballWeekly yesterday, and I’ve talked to several people who I would say would be in a position to know if that conversation had taken place.”

Danny gave his prediction for how the rest of the season will go in Seattle, and what changes fans can expect to see. As far as only considering Mike Holmgren or Tim Ruskell as the next general manager, Danny believes the Seahawks will avoid having blinders on, and consider all the facts and candidates before making the decision.
