Saints officially hire Spagnuolo
Football Betting Lines
02/07/2012 - Metairie, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New Orleans Saints officially hired Steve Spagnuolo as their new defensive coordinator on Tuesday.
Spagnuolo spent the last three seasons as head coach in St. Louis, but was fired on January 2 after the Rams finished the 2011 season with a bleak 2-14 record.
He finished his brief tenure with a mark of 10-38. The Rams were 1-15 in his first year, then took a big step forward at 7-9 in 2010 before regressing this past season.
His Rams team was expected to contend in the NFC West in 2011, but started with six straight losses and never recovered. The Rams' only wins came against New Orleans and Cleveland in a three-week span. They finished the year on a seven-game losing streak.
He will replace Gregg Williams, who left New Orleans on January 16 to become defensive coordinator of the Rams under new head coach Jeff Fisher.
Prior to becoming the Rams' head coach, Spagnuolo spent two seasons as defensive coordinator for the New York Giants, calling the defensive plays for a New York squad that won Super Bowl XKII after the 2007 season against the previously-undefeated New England Patriots.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
