Sometimes you get to interview for jobs that you aren't qualified for. Happened to me with Walmart once. You quickly realize that you're in over your head.

I'm hoping they hire him just to see the flaming shite show play out in real time.

Can't wait to see him wearing a bow tie and suspenders on the sideline

Sad thing is, he won't do bad, and he won't do great.

With Baylor as my second team, this would be a bad hire. I also don't see this a real consideration, but more of a PR move.

Depending on how the interim does on this next stretch of games which includes BYU and Texas Tech, there is the possibility he will get serious consideration. I still think Baylor needs a Traylor or McGuire type coach, similar to Art Briles, that knows that Texas high school landscape very well and can recruit some hidden Texas gems to fill out bulk of roster and use limited NIL to get high profile positions like QB, LB, DE. Having strong coordinator ties to Louisiana, California and Florida would be big boost as well.

Unless he brings in people to actually do the coaching, it will be a disaster.

But, MAYBE, college football is evolving to the point where the HC is actually a figurehead.

Deion isn’t a clusterfrick. He had experience with JSU, and has been about as good/bad as anybody else at CU has been for the last decade plus. Baylor, on the other hand, has had some solid seasons in their recent history. RG3 could sink them bad.

Do colleges even have a Rooney Rule? That actual rule is an NFL one.

They are giving him the pity interview so he picks up the phone when they call asking for donations.

At least Deion had HS and FCS coaching experience. At least Rivers has HS coaching experience. They're still unqualified for P4 HC jobs imo, but at least they had something to point to.

RG3 has never been a coach of any kind at any capacity at any level.
