Source: Bucs have not contacted former NFL coach Bill Cowher The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have not contacted former NFL coach Bill Cowher about possibly coaching the team in 2010, according to a source close to the team's owners. An NFL.com report said team officials contacted Cowher. "That's not true," a source with knowledge of the Glazer family's intentions told the Tampa Tribune. "That's just people speculating." According to a story by NFL.com reporter Jason La Canfora, Bucs officials reached out to Cowher to gauge his interest in possibly coaching the team in 2010. The story cited "a source with knowledge of the situation." Cowher, who won a Super Bowl as coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, has been working as a CBS analyst since stepping down after the 2006 season. The team declined to comment. Raheem Morris has struggled in his first season as a head coach with the Bucs. The team is 2-12 and Morris has replaced the offensive and defensive coordinators. Offensive coordinator Jeff Jagodzinksi was let go 10 days before the season started and replaced by quarterbacks coach Greg Olson. Defensive coordinator Jim Bates was relieved of his duties in late November, after a lopsided home loss to the New Orleans Saints. Since then, Morris has run the defense. The defense has shown steady improvement since Morris took control, but the offense has struggled to perform consistently under Olson. The Glazers, who purchased the Bucs in 1995, have a history of making dramatic coaching changes. They gave Tony Dungy his first head coaching job in 1996, but fired him after repeated playoff losses and paid $8 million in cash, plus multiple high draft picks, to acquire Jon Gruden from the Oakland Raiders to replace Dungy in 2002. Gruden led the franchise to its only Super Bowl victory in his first season, but was fired after losing the final four games of 2008 to finish 9-7 and out of the playoffs. Morris was promoted from the defensive coordinator position he held for only a matter of weeks. At 33, he is the NFL's youngest head coach. Dating to the end of last season, the Bucs have won two of their past 18 games. The Bucs' once-robust waiting list for season tickets is gone, with the team offering half-season packages and financing offers prior to the season. Though home games at Raymond James Stadium have not been blacked out, actual attendance has diminished. Fans of opposing teams have had a noticeable presence in the stadium, especially during games against Dallas, the New York Giants and Green Bay. Roy Cummings, The Tampa Tribune 29 December 2009
