Well to be fair an NCAA championship and the nfl are way different. You are very recruitment centric in college, something that is a non issue for this level. Instead strategy and organizational skills are probably much more important. After all the teams have somewhat equitable drafts from the same pool of talent each year.

I'm not pro college coach but would not hold NCAA success over the guy

that's one of the things that i have heard is a reason that kelly wants to leave the college level.

recruiting takes too much time and he'd rather concentrate on coaching.

Jon Gruden had seven years of pro coaching experience before he got the Raiders job, including three as an Offensive Coordinator. Kelly has no NFL experience at all.

I hear what you're saying though, but I've heard it before. They said it about Spurrier too. Here's a few other names--Mike Riley, Lou Holtz, Nick Saban, Butch Davis, Bobby Petrino,

Kelly will get hyped, and get a job, and look really really bad. He can't even win the NCAA championship, how is he supposed to win in the NFL?

IMO you can't lump Saban in that convo. Was he an ass the way he left? Yeah. But he had probably the worst QB situation in the league and won more games than our current coach who people are clammoring to keep.

it's practically a requirement for richardson that a head coach have a defensive background.

JR should be hands off with that part of the decision. The guy is 76 and doesn't know how to run an NFL team..it's why he's hiring a new GM. So hopefully he'll let the GM do his job.

Fair enough. He also had NFL coaching experience.

Kelly, however, does not. :)

      Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts?

      It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
