Lets discuss other coaches (Nolan, Cameron, etc.)

1. Mike Nolan - Defensive Coordinator (Miami Dolphins) - 51 years old
He coached LBs at LSU in the mid-80s and has connections to the south with him and his dad coaching with the Saints
2. Cam Cameron - Offensive Coordinator (Baltimore Ravens) - 49 years old
Once a hot name, the former Indiana head coach used to coach with Coach Miles at Michigan. Still highly regarded as a good offensive mind, and he has worked well with Joe Flacco.
3. Kyle Shanahan - Offensive Coordinator (Washington Redskins) - 31 years old
I know his ascent in the football coaching ranks SCREAMS of nepotism, but he has been able to make huge strides with his connections in his few years of coaching. His college days and coaching in Houston gives him a good deal of recent Texas connections.
4. Brian Van Gorder (Defensive Coordinator - Atlanta Falcons) - 51 years old
Also a former "hot name", the Jackson, Mississippi native has help build the Atlanta defense into one of the more feared in the NFC. In addition, it could be argued that Coach Richt's best seasons at Georgia were when Van Gorder was his defensive coordinator in the early 2000s.

and let's be honest......Mike Nolan is a dapper man
working the Tiger Stadium sidelines in a suit would be a fan favorite

Larry Blakeney at Troy. Nothing but success with almost no resources.

Bill Arsparger wasn't much of an NFL coach either....

Larry Blakeney is too old IMO

Since we'd like to get away from the spread and go to more of a pro style, "west coast" offense ...
how about Bob Toledo from Tulane?

as a what????? COORDINATOR
Go look at Mike Nolan's coordinator skins and see if they are in a leauge a little tougher than the SEC or Conference USA.

quote:i think hes a fine coordinator. hes proved that... in the NFL!! he hasnt coached in college in 25 years- last with LSU, 1986. the game has changed and you want him to be the head coach??!?!?!?!?!?!

College football is too far advanced for an NFL guy to keep up? Makes sense. Saban's defenses were much worse in the SEC than in the AFC East.
