I want a coach that would go for 2-pts when already up by 27.

Yes, im talking about Jim Harbaugh when he was dominating USC last year and went for a 2-pt conversion when up 27 points just to make sure his team hit 50 against Pete Carrols trojan's.

Harbaugh exhibited excessive self confidence on Saturday when -- already up by 27 points -- he called a two-point conversion, intent on laying 50 on the Trojans.

That call irritated Pete Carroll, the Zeus of West Coast football. After the 55-21 destruction, the most points surrendered in USC history, Carroll greeted Harbaugh at the midfield handshake with the testy question: "What's your deal?"

Harbaugh, unbowed, replied, "What's your deal?"

I no the article is a year old, but it is still very relevant.

and I thought this was going to be about you wanting Wisconsin's Bret Bielema - but he was only up 25.

To play devil's advocate, Harbaugh also got blown out in his only tough game of the year so far

[thunderraiden]

actually if you watched the game he was blowing Oregon out the first half until his player started handing the ball to the other team and the defense was just constantly tricked, but its STANFORD player we are talking about, not hardcore D-I powerhouse heavily recruited #1 in the nation players. we never said he was a defensive coach and if you watch the 4th qaurter in the Oregon game the offense went to the goal line twice for Luck to fumble the snap (sound familiar) and then for Luck to throw a INT, Oregon scored another TD in garbage time and it looked like a blow out. At least watch some highlights before commenting.

I want a coach that's coached in the pros before.

[TheRealDeal]

I watched the whole game. I've seen more Stanford games then you will ever see.

You're telling me you want a coach that can get up big early and not hold a lead? Stanford gets plenty of athletes. They just get smarter athletes. Bottom line is it was the biggest game of the year for Stanford, Pac10, national title implications. Stanford is gifted early points from Oregon to get a big lead and at this point the defense no longer has to play lights out, just the offense (his "specialty") has to play well enough to limit Oregon's possessions and he couldn't do that. FAIL

[TheRealDeal]

Plus Harbough turned down some big college jobs last year, what makes you think he'd want to take a small NFL job?

A coach that could actually get us 27 points would be nice.
