17islongenough Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Has there ever been a HC that hasn't coached higher than HS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan4 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I don’t know if this is about tanking. If it was, why not just keep Reich in place? They’ve already been losing. The only thing I can think of is that maybe Jim Irsay trusts Jeff Saturday (he’s been a team consultant for years and was a colts player for over a decade before that. I believe he & Irsay are close) and wants his eyes & ears in the locker room to help figure out wtf is wrong with the team and figure out who needs to stay/go (and that might include the GM). either that or this was a crazy out of the box hire by Ballard to try and save his job. He is a unique dude. My guess is Irsay wanted someone in that locker room that could be his eyes and ears. He seems to have gone back to meddling in decisions again.

Albany,n.y. Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 1 hour ago, YoloinOhio said: If he was going to hire a guy with only high school coaching experience, he should have hired Jerry Smith, long time coach of St. Francis High. https://blogs.usafootball.com/blog/7839/podcast-change-with-the-times-or-the-times-change-you-jerry-smith-st-francis-high-school-n-y With close to 40 years of coaching experience at St. Francis High School (N.Y.), head coach Jerry Smith has seen a lot during his tenure. St. Francis alumni such as Brian Daboll (Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator), David Caldwell (Jacksonville Jaguars general manager) and Chris Polian (Indianapolis Colts vice president and general manager [2009-2011]) are just a few examples of the success stories under Coach Smith. He has witnessed how the game has evolved over time and he has changed with it. On today's episode of the Coach and Coordinator podcast, hear how a veteran coach has approached each day on the job with a fresh outlook.

First Round Bust Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I was hoping they would wait until an off-day...Tuesday to announce the hiring of Saturday..but they jumped and did it on a Monday....but at least they thought it over Sunday...good thing they dont play this Thursday...as an iterim I do see him lasting beyond black Friday...but not past Good Friday or Phat Tuesday (Mardi Gras)...

Reich was 3-5-1 and had them playing well enough to (probably) finish with a pick in the 6-10 range. It's hard to see the Colts winning another game this year with Saturday as HC.

How can you hire a HC who hasn't even seen the playbook for this weeks game. What is he going to offer at this point? Yeah imagine if you hired Marv Levy mid season. That would never work In skeptical about this move, and it could fail spectacularly but who knows? Maybe it works out. It’s better than mailing it in with Gus Bradley who has already failed as a HC. Maybe you learn something and maybe he brings a unique perspective to the organization Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's trying to bottom out in the hopes of landing a franchise QB in the 2023 draft. Exactly...that's what he did when they "sucked for Luck." Bit him in the arse, though, when Luck abruptly retired. So...already casting his current staff and players overboard in this move, itt would be fitting, if whoever they draft...Stroud, Young, etc...plays a season or two then decides to become a trappist monk.

Augie Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Consider the owner. That is all you need to know. He railed against Snyder, but I’m not sure how much better he is representing “The Shield”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Lasso is a fictional character 2. Ted Lasso's character WAS a previous coach of college (American) football, so he at least is familiar with the duties of being a HC.
