NFL coaches that are out the DOOR!!

USC coach Pete Carroll knew about former coach's drug addiction - NCAA Football - SI.com

Reportedly Romeo Crennel has chosen the Chiefs over the Giants and an announcement could come soon.

Hmmmmm.....no word on Cable yet.....

As seen on ESPN, Carroll is one of the few NCAA to NFL coaches who was successful in the pros, with success measured at a career record over .500 (33-31).

Carroll inherited a Superbowl team. He and Bobby Grier put it in the toilet 3 years later.

Agreed!!!

On offense alone, Carroll inherited Drew Bledsoe, Curtis Martin, Terry Glenn, Ben Coates, Shawn Jefferson, Troy Brown, Dave Meggett, Keith Byars, Sam Gash and Vincent Brisby..................and won 1 playoff game in three years!!!

I keep wondering if the Urban Meyer flip-flop at Florida had something to do with an NFL offer.

I called that one the very day Urban came out and announced his "leave". Urban will be in the NFL within 2 years. Mark it down.

I wouldn't doubt it. But his shtick will not work in the NFL.

 

[mdonnelly]

I agree. Of all the recent coaches to go pro he was the only one with a winning record.

The merde has to be hitting the fan soon at USC for him to bolt like that.

Recent is a relative term. For me, Jimmy Johnson was recent.

It is funny how people who claim to know about sports don't understand the difference between college and pro football.

Coaching in the NFL would probably kill the guy, but don't let that get in the way of your buckeye message board nonsense.

Let us know when you want to start the Saban back to the NFL rumor also.

Actually, I think coaching at the College ranks is MORE stressful than at the professional level. This is one of the reasons I think Urban will leave Florida to go to the NFL. Think about it....

College coaches have a 24/7, 360 day job. They have boosters to please, kids to mentor, recruits to swoon, academics to monitor and so on. (all of this is over and above a coaches job description in the NFL). At a large, college football institution, there is more pressure than on any pro-football team.

Then why aren't more of the top college coaches who gravitate to the pros successful there??

Success and stress do not correlate with eachother. It's a different game. There's so much more when comparing the two levels.

It's Official: Tom Heckert Named Browns GM

Tom Cable never met with Al Davis, kinda throws a wrench into all of the 'will be fired' reports if they never meet. Davis has reportedly just not made up his mind.

Related, Richard Seymour will become a free agent, and said he'll consider playing for 31 teams... the excluded team being the Patriots. If the Raiders don't re-sign him, that's one hell of a trade the Pats pulled off to get the 1st pick from them for him.

Jack Del Rio will not be fired.

Believed to have factored into the decision is the $15m still left in his contract that he'd have to be paid whether he coaches there or not.

I doubt they will not resign him. He was a major leader in the defense and locker room.

Seymour will almost certainly get the franchise tag or transition tag if he does not agree to a long-term deal. If 2010 is indeed uncapped, teams get one franchise and two transition tags, instead of the normal one tag.
