I don't like that HC experience was so important

I disagree with valuing HC experience for the meatbally "guys won't respect a guy who hasn't led a locker room" reasons.

 

But I can understand from a more tactical standpoint. HC is a much more "Executive" type role than that of a coordinator. As a HC you have to focus on the big picture as well as being one of the faces of the organization -- in addition to day-to-day duties. A coordinator is more of an executor.

 

It is different, but should not be a deciding factor in who you hire. What was the point in interviewing all those guys without HC experience if you needed a guy with HC experience? Every head coach comes from an underling role at some point.

Agree.

 

I'm not watching the conference: was Emery saying they weren't going to hire a guy who hadn't been a HC? If so, that's beyond stupid and a waste of time. I could understand it being a tiebreaker, however.

He noted it when discussing how it went down to 3 guys, and then Bevell was eliminated because he was never a HC.

really talking up the CFL and the coaches up there.

 

 

I hope there aren't anymore guys brought down from those staffs. They need to fill it out with NFL caliber coaches from the outset. Lovie's first staff struggled with too many college guys.
