He's not stealing anyone. He's offering someone a promotion and they accepted.

lol?

Its the NFL. Its the height of the profession, he doesn't have to recruit year round and deal with NIL, and he gets actual time off unlike college in 2025.

It is definitely a promotion in every sense of the word.

You don't think CFB coaches are professionals?

Why would you try to assume that?

Are your trying to create an argument base on something I didn't say so you can seem smarter than me?

In no way did he say that. He said the nfl is the height of the football coaching profession. Which is in no way arguable.

Mickey doesn’t care about your feelings or your love of LSU.

Nor should he.

Not for Bear Bryant or Nick Saban or Spurrier.

It depends on the individual. It is very much arguable.

You said professional would disagree with you. I took that as the work Professional in Pro football disagrees with my notion that going from CFB to NFL isn't inherently a promotion. .

Feel free to clarify

No it isn’t.

The NFL is head and shoulders above CFB in terms of its athletes. Again this is in no way arguable. It is the highest level of football played on planet earth. To coach in the nfl is the most prestigious coaching of football you can achieve.

Just because there were some legendary college football coaches does not mean that the talent disparity between the two levels narrows.

There are as many nfl coaching jobs at each position group in totality as there are in basically two power conferences of college football. If you’re coaching in the NFL you’re coaching the best group of football players in the world.

Thats not clarifying your statement. But I'll take your lack of a good faith argument as you don't have one.

You're having a different argument. Those guys preferred college and were better at it.

It doesn't make the NFL not the height of the profession. It is.

Is that you're argument? Because that is not a reasonable argument.

Based on that argument, coaching college football is not a step up from coaching high school football because some very successful, even the most successful, high school coaches did not have success in or did not coach college football.

If we applied it to players, you would find similar results. It is a ridiculous argument.

What level of a profession or competition is the pinnacle of that is not contingent on how successful any individual is at any level. The level requires you to be the most competitive to succeed and drawing the very best of that group is the pinnacle. For football, that is the NFL. Spurrier and Saban did not succeed at that level because they were saddled with rosters that were not up to the task and they were not good enough as coaches to overcome the talent disparity(Perhaps no one was).

How many SuperBowl winning coaches or even highly succesful NFL coaches do you see voluntarily leave the NFL to take a college head coaching job? How many National Championship or highly successful college coaches do you see voluntarily leaving to take an NFL head coaching job?

If you honestly think it is arguable, your logical ability is suspect. I suspect you are being purposefully obtuse.

I’m certainly not going to engage in explaining something that I did not say.
