- I'd be all for it. Mike went to my high school, about 20 years later than I did, but... bbkingfish 11:19am · 11/16/16
  - Now those are wonderful reasons to hire a coach. Jack needs to get on the plane today Irish_Demon 2:28pm · 11/16/16
  - Sounds like a great hire! NY3 2:09pm · 11/16/16
    - No more cheapskates at ND! bbkingfish 4:15pm · 11/16/16
- I kinda like the idea. Guys from the pros understand faircatchcorby 8:38pm · 11/15/16
  - Did you see his remarks in his Monday presser? pittsnyfan 12:40pm · 11/16/16
    - No I did not see this. Perhaps I should reconsider faircatchcorby 9:35pm · 11/16/16
- Yep, another pro guy with zero college head coaching experience. MAS 7:20pm · 11/15/16

  - Agree. The success rate of NFL coaches that move to college, as well as vice versa, is fairly lowNT Irish_Demon 8:44pm · 11/15/16
    - Serious question, are there stats to back that up?NT NDNEIL 10:00pm · 11/15/16
      - In the past 25 years, name the NFL only head coaches have returned to college and been successful? D2 12:58pm · 11/16/16
        
        That's not the point NDNEIL 7:59pm · 11/17/16

        There is a reason for the lack of attempts D2 3:13pm · 11/16/16
        
        I don't agree with that.. Chrisb 5:54pm · 11/16/16
        
        I get that you aren't inherently arguing for a NFL coach D2 9:39pm · 11/16/16
        
        CHARLIE WEIS. That's one example enough. That said, I'd hire Bill O'Brien given his college recordNT NY3 2:12pm · 11/16/16
        
        Epic Fail! Weis did not have NFL head coaching experience.NT Chrisb 5:33pm · 11/16/16
      - No, it's a myth. Having said that, finding someone with successfull college HC experience.. Chrisb 11:59pm · 11/15/16
        
        A myth? really?. Irish_Demon 12:42am · 11/16/16
        
        The reality is, most coaches fail NDNEIL 8:03pm · 11/17/16
        
        It really isn't a myth, especially in the last 25 years D2 1:15pm · 11/16/16
        
        It really is. Chrisb 1:57pm · 11/16/16
        
        You essentially are saying because there isn't enough evidence to make a effective judgement D2 3:09pm · 11/16/16
        
        Huh? NDNEIL 8:08pm · 11/17/16
        
        No not really.. Chrisb 6:06pm · 11/16/16
