  1. My point is it's not the 90s anymore. The NFL became a corporate entity and most of the HCs are nameless and faceless personalities. It is a "better" job in title only. College HCs have to recruit, so having an engaging personality is part of the job. Does anyone actually think Nick Sirianni is a better football coach than say, Urban Meyer? Does anyone know what Nick Sirianni did before he got the Eagles job?
  2. Sorry, forgot about Harbaugh.
  3. The "apex of the profession" currently consists of these guys as HCs: Jonathan Gannon, Raheem Morris, Sean McDermott, Dave Canales, Ben Johnson, Zac Taylor, Kevin Stefanski, Brian Schottenheimer, Shane Steichen, Liam Coen, Kevin O'Connell, Kellen Moore, Brian Daboll, Aaron Glenn, Nick Sirianni, Mike McDonald, Todd Bowles, Mike McCoy, and Dan Quinn. The NFL head coaching world Is a boring ass fraternity that hires internally. 95% of sports fans couldn't name these coach's previous positions before getting the head job.
  4. I guess. CFB and NFL are just completely different worlds now. Modern day NFL head coaches work their way up through the system. Pete Carroll might be the only one right now with serious CFB coaching bona fides.
  5. Brian Schottenheimer is the HC for the Dallas Cowboys.
  6. A lot of coaches like working with younger players and developing them. Also the vast majority of pro football coaches are NFL lifers, working their way up through the system.
  7. The NFL desires just make so little sense to me. He was OC for the Falcons for 2 years, and was fired after HC Dan Quinn was forced to clean house. His performance was middling at best, as he took over a high powered Falcon offense and left with an average one. He's HC/OC/play caller at Texas. I'm assuming he'd want the same responsibilities in the pros. Even if an NFL team is willing to give him that power, it's still fleeting. If he sucks the owner/GM will pull play calling duties ASAP. Unlikely he gets a higher yearly salary in the NFL. The only thing that makes sense to me is if he hates dealing with NIL/portal/recruiting/staff turnover & hires. But those are his most successful areas at Texas so far. Sark was lucky to even get the Texas head coaching job. Looking for a way out seems ridiculous.
  8. Yes. 2nd play of the game. Was already yelling at the TV to just hand it off to Wisner on 1st an goal at the 3 or whatever. Instead QB run and Arch gets dinged up a little. Because of course.
  9. Here is every Caldwell play this season.
  10. Feels like we are in a simulation. Cuomo is a comic book villain. Basic values have just disappeared.
  11. The amount of Deion/Shedeur oxygen we were forced to breath on ESPN the last few years was ridiculous. Nature is healing.
  12. Lots of Caldwell snaps here. Threw a few picks but almost brought them back.
  13. Hard to find stuff on YouTube, here are some highlights last year vs. GA Southern.
  14. I'm legitimately excited for what looks like Caldwell's opportunity to start vs. Vandy. It's clear he's a great teammate. Feels like the players will definitely rally around him. I'm hope it's announced soon, so we can get Zapruder breakdowns all week of his handful of plays so far 😂.
  15. This legitimately made be laugh out loud. You're something, man.
  16. No one read the article. It's the specific tweet she sent, which currently has over 8 million views. Everyone gives a fuck. We're Texas. That's why it became national news very quickly.
  17. Yeah, Sark has spoken a few times in the past about the "adapt or die" philosophy he got from Saban. Too bad it didn't stick.
  18. She's not an investigative journalist. Relationships are important in her field too. The timing was bullshit. Clearly we'll just agree to disagree.
  19. I think publishing that rumor the morning of game day is a bullshit move. Caught like wildfire and became a distraction for the HC and team.
  20. The fuckup by Russini was dropping that info the morning of game day. That was a bullshit move and she should know better.
  21. It's hilarious that NFL teams still try to go after "great" CFB head coaches. They are two wildly different jobs and that experiment has been a general failure over the years.
