There's no way any team would consider hiring a HC who has no coaching experience at any level. So they would become the conservative Cleveland Brown-rice.

Terrific job! Qualifications? She's a woman, African-American, Ivy League educated- plus she's a fan of the game. I guess that renders her qualified...as it does Michelle Obama Sooooo....she has defensive experience regarding an aerial attack? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should a team that just fired a black coach have to interview minority candidates to replace him?

keepthefaith Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 It wouldn't surprise me if at some point an executive/leader with no football coaching experience was hired as a head of coaching and in doing so the coaching org chart was slightly different than typical. Today we have head coaches with coordinators directly reporting which is like EVP's reporting to CEO's. Many successful orgs have a COO reporting to CEO with the VP's beneath. A football team could do something similar by hiring a top flight leader as the head of the coaches who might sit between the GM and the week to week head coach. The league puts limits on the number of players per team and what those players can be paid. There aren't similar limits on the coaching staff and as competitive as the league is to evaluate and develop players and with the high turnover in head coaches, some team might decide that there are benefits in having more top minds on the job. Leaders in other disciplines often move to unfamiliar industries and do great things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 (edited) I think maybe the Browns have some people within their organization who can't keep their traps shut. So maybe they're spreading weird info to see if they can trace it back to whoever has the loose lips.

HC’s must know the X’s and O’s- if not they will never truly know a poor game plan presented by the coordinators or know how to adjust throughout the game.
