Deion Sanders retired from football almost two decades ago and has never coached a minute in his life. There is zero chance he will be hired as FSU's head coach and has to have been added to this list as some type of courtesy.
IF he somehow got the job—meaning everyone else turned it down—the only "instant energy" would be the rest of the college football world laughing their asses off as the Seminoles making the dumbest hire in the history of college sports.
With the recent Stoops talk and now this—based on fact Briles and Leavitt are staying—it seems FSU is simply looking for a figurehead who can sit atop the program for 2-3 years before they turn the keys over to head coach in waiting, Briles. They simply know they can't promote him yet and need someone to come in and right the ship program-wise before he takes over.
Interesting especially when you look at a guy like Jimmy Graham. Though in football more so than basketball, you can carve out a specific role or job that the team needs, and you can coach a player that specific role and ignore lots of other things. Idk if that makes it harder or easier though. Like with Graham he didn't need to know much about playing safety at least not at first. In basketball, sure you can specialize in rebounding or 3 pt shooting but all 5 guys play defense together, all guys have to run up and down the court, etc.
the usual suspects..
Good point but no racism here.Only if you're racist.
One of the greatest football players of all time but no experience as a head coach. Sounds like manny Diaz minus being a hall of Famer lol
Ask @88. He feels it's imperative...

Manny Diaz never played college football. To be honest, Charlie Weis is the only other coach I’m aware of who didn’t play CFB.
Leach, Freeze, Paul Johnson and Cutcliffe also didn't play. There are others at non power 5 schools as well.
Cant wait for Luke's reaction when FSU hires someone with actual HC experince instead of Deion..
I cant see a person as accomplished as deion hitting the recruiting trail and begging teenagers to come to FSU. HOF'ers really make great coaches. They dont understand having to motivate someone to get better at something they 'love'.
How many Natties do they have between em'?...thought so.
