I want Brandon Taylor to coach DBs

CB. And no.

BT has a nice gig with Performance. He’s not going anywhere

You have legit issues

Does he?

Can you list one single bit of evidence that he knows how to coach at the college level?

No, you can't.

I'm glad you don't have to make important decisions in the world that affects me.

Maybe we could get Tommy Casanova in here to coach DBs. He was after all an All-American at LSU. Slam dunk.

So you want someone who's never been a coach to be our DBs coach? Just because you played the position doesn't mean you can coach it. I would rather get someone with proven success. You can't waste time and money hiring guys just because they're former players. Kelly can't risk that

Absolute truth. In fact there is a school of thought that superstars make terrible coaches because they simply don’t understand how players just don’t “get it” like they could.

Montana, Manning, Aikman, Favre, Elway, Young— think they would be good coaches? If someone said “yes”my response would be “why haven’t they sought it out”

Favre coached high school in Mississippi for a while. I don't know if he still does or not.

And often in the cases of superstars, they are so physically gifted they have been able to overshadow less-than-perfect technique or weaker work ethic.

The theory would also be that the best coaches are the over-achievers as players. The ones that weren't born with all the physical advantages but clawed their way onto rosters by busting their arse and being very coachable.
