Cowher looking to return to sidelines again

I think Cower likes to fug with the Panthers. Seems like every time after we make a coaching decision he comes out with this "well I don't know maybe someday"

He has been gone since 2006. He might be great but then again how many guys who left coaching for years came back and did well again. I can think of Gibbs with the Redskins but he didn't do all that well. Dick Vermeil did well with St Louis, but it is pretty rare for guys to come back after extended absences so the number is pretty small

What is the argument against Cowher anyway outside of been away too long? The dude is a Hall of Fame coach and he's been in the booth analyzing. It's not like he went into a coma.

Hall of fame coach? Did I miss something?

Cowher's 55 now, so I'm sure senility has kicked in and he's forgotten how to coach. And I'm sure he hasn't been keeping up with the game either.

"Cowher, though, sees this as a "non-issue," citing that he's still on top of his game just by serving a CBS studio analyst.

"I did it for 27 years. You don't just forget things overnight," Cowher said. "One thing about this job is it's been really good, because it allows me to study the game and do features on the game. I want to know what I'm talking about, so I'm watching tape. It's not like I'm out of it. I know how the game is changing." http://www.usatoday.com/story/gameon/2013/01/08/bill-cowher-interested-in-nfl-coaching-return/1819343/

      https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.

      Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
