Rob Ryan's hair keeping him from head coaching jobs. Seriously?

Appearing on ESPN's NFL Insiders Monday, Chris Mortensen reported Saints DC Rob Ryan's long hair is considered an impediment to landing a head-coaching job.
Mort's report is via "several NFL executives," including an owner. Although Ryan's flowing, silver locks are unusual for an NFL coach, we highly doubt it's the reason he's never risen to the ranks of head coach. The 2013 Saints are the first team Ryan's coordinated to reach the playoffs, while he's been with four clubs since 2008. Like his brother Rex, Rob is a strong defensive mind, but we expect him to be back as Sean Payton's coordinator for 2014. He hasn't been linked to any head-coaching vacancies.

I stated in another thread that his personality doesn't gel with being the man, and he probably doesn't want it anyway.

If there is an award for coordinator of the year in the NFL, ROB RYAN should get it. He turned the worst defense in NFL HISTORY into a top 10 defense in 1 season.

Seems like he genuinely loves new Orleans and his current job.

Sorry for partying
Dude is a perfect fit here, I think he stays awhile. Not to mention he gets complete reign of the defense and gets to work with one of the best offensive play callers in the league to complement his game.

Very believable.
Remember, the rumor is Miami didn't hire Mike Tomlin because he was too "hip hop"

Any human or non human that would report such a story should be tarred and feathered. But I'm old.

First owners didn't like Vince Lombardi because he was a Sicilian, now they don't like Rob Ryan because he's a clone of The Dude from The Big Lebowski?
frick the haters.

A lot of people have viewed Rob Ryan as a distraction/cancer, even fans on here. But none of that crap is true. Ryan is a good coach with a passion for football. He deserves a head coaching job, more so than his brother Rex.

I would think him only having one winning season as a D coordinator would be more of the problem
