He went to your HS and spent $1500 for your town on pizzas! This is what we've been missing...

Mike McCarthy is a possibility. Might be available. Great hire IMO. [NT] - Dr Lou - 4:36pm 11/15/16 (46) [View All]
- 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
  - Yep, easy to have a list that goes on and on, when most on it are terrible or laughable examples.. - Chrisb - 10:52am 11/16/16

  - Agree. The success rate of NFL coaches that move to college, as well as vice versa, is fairly low [NT] - 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 record [NT] - 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
        Sorry but I think you're full of it. - D2 - 9:35pm 11/16/16
        And I think you are, so... - Chrisb - 10:26pm 11/16/16
        If you really had relevant data, you would certainly let me know. - D2 - 11:25am 11/17/16
        Lovie Smith was unemployed - NDNEIL - 8:10pm 11/17/16
        So was Pete Carroll as was Jim Mora - D2 - 9:53am 11/18/16
        
        Yes. - Chrisb - 8:12am 11/16/16
  - Ummm, Dan Devine turned out ok! [NT] - faircatchcorby - 8:34pm 11/15/16
    - umm check your history - D2 - 9:36pm 11/15/16
    - Uhm, Dan Devine was a highly successful college coach that spent a short time in the pros - Irish_Demon - 8:45pm 11/15/16
- Re: Mike McCarthy is a possibility. Might be available. Great hire IMO. - Irishshark - 6:02pm 11/15/16
- Would be nice, but... - ndunabomber - 4:48pm 11/15/16
  - He may be looking for a fresh start [NT] - Dr Lou - 5:52pm 11/15/16
    - Green Bay is close to looking for a fresh start. He's 9-13 in last 22 games. - pittsnyfan - 12:41pm 11/16/16
    - Possibly... - ndunabomber - 11:05pm 11/15/16
    - But not a death wish! [NT] - whatsamataU - 6:01pm 11/15/16
- Can we get Aaron Rodgers too? [NT] - THEISMANCARR - 4:48pm 11/15/16
  - As long as his woman comes with him. Can I say that here? [NT] - Dr Lou - 5:53pm 11/15/16
    - No. That's now referred to as being a MISOGYNIST, even though it's not. [NT] - NY3 - 2:28pm 11/16/16
