The ultimate experiment would be to have a non football guy make 1 mil as HC. He is an awesome organizational/people leader and recruiter, give him 10 mil for assistants, so see if he can field a winning program by being the CEO and letting the football people do their jobs.No it’s true. And that’s why some people laughed when people with no coaching experience get talked about for head jobs but I’m becoming more willing to give it a try in cases.
The whole key is that your HC has to know his place and stay in his lane. Take Coach O, while he was at LSU he went on record saying he doesn’t mess with offense, or call coverages. He was basically the DL coach,recruiting coordinator, and clock management. It worked. Dion sanders is a great example. He is the recruiting coordinator and DB coach. Hire smart people and let them do everything else.
I've always wondered if that would work out better for some schools instead of trying to hire a football guru at HC.
