Love the new Avator. Mr. Milchick for the win.It's Circular reasoning fallacy.
The logic is, because a guy Coached at the NFL level, then they should be equally if not more successful on the College level because the NFL is harder.
What people who believe that fail to factor in is that the NFL & College are two different games from a collective standpoint. There are collegiate players who individually are going to play & do well in the NFL, but entire teams don't get drafted to the league.
In College, it's mostly a talent acquisition game, in the NFL every team has great talent, so it comes down to late season health & play calling + decision making in critical moments. The margin of error is a lot slimmer in the NFL in order to win on a consistent basis. In college, if you have the more talented roster 9/10 times you're going to win.
Position Coaches & Coordinators matter a lot more in College than they do in the league.
But overall, an NFL coaches success in College has more to do with their adaptability philosophically & understanding the mentality of College young adults, than it has anything to do necessarily with some special knowledge that people assume they might have due to their time in the NFL.
It's a case by case/coach by coach barometer. There are some Coaches on the college level who are better suited for the NFL & there are some NFL coaches who are better suited for college. It strictly depends on their personality.
It's a nuanced topic & nuance is nearly impossible to digest when it comes to CIS.
Being severed doesn’t sound so bad. I could walk around as my “Innie” and forget the last 20 years of ‘Canes football.
