I think Meyer would have been fine bringing The Golden Calf of Bristol in as a first year assistant coach instead of as a player.  The Golden Calf of Bristol could then help set the tone for the organization and also get some experience coaching.

Having The Golden Calf of Bristol come in as a player, being so old and with no recent playing time, for a position he never played, was just the height of stupidity.  It was hubris on the part of Urban Meyer.

Pete Carroll had significant NFL experience, including being head coach in New England prior to taking the Seattle job.  You are correct about Switzer, didn't think about him.  

Calling Switzer a success at the pro level is a stretch.

His trophy came in one year with Jimmy Johnson's team and it was nothing but downhill from there.

Something changed te-bow in my post to "The Golden Calf of Bristol".   That's not what I wrote.  

Is it some type of bot doing this ??  

T3bowmania swept through this board in 2011 like it did in many places.  It's auto filtered to The Golden Calf of Bristol because ESPN switched to 24/7 coverage of him as illustrated nicely here:

e: let's see if it still filters Sir Cameron Newton: Leader of Men, Lover of Puppies...Esquire

      2025 Vegas win totals

      By Camp Fodder · Posted

      Perhaps but matching last years win total when they spent money revamping the defense and the fact they only have 4 teams on the schedule that made the playoffs last year would at the very least make their seats very warm.

      Panthers will bring Tetairoa in for a visit

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Did you watch that Colorado game? I did. Despite being blown out Arizona ran the ball 34 times to only 26 passing attempts. Why? Because their OL absolutely could not protect the QB. They gave up more sacks (7) than they had in their six games prior to that one. It's hard to complete passes from your back or while you're running for your life and that was what they were dealing with in that game. Its like when Greg Olsen only had 4 catches for 41 yards and 0 TDs on 9 targets in SB50. Yeah, if you're just looking at the boxscore you might say that he got shutdown but if you actually watched the game you'd never talk about that because of the overall situation in the game. It wasn't that simple.

      You bring up good points that could be looked into more carefully.  I heard what he said--you have gym rats and film rats--and they are the people who are willing to do more than they need to do instead of what they are merely required to do.  Stats?  Yes.  They beat New Mexico, Northern Arizona, Utah, and Houston.  They were playing from behind (passing) vs. non starters quite a bit. He had a 300-yard game against New Mexico. A 200-yard game vs. a weak WVU team (6-6) during which they were playing from behind (passing more).  Impressive, nonetheless. However, how did he do vs. Colorado and Hunter at CB?  38 yards.  Maybe he should have watched more film. What about the big rivalry game vs. ASU at the end of the season?  68 yards. What about the big win vs. Houston, a team that was ranked 10th at the time?  50 yards.  Brigham Young was ranked 14th when they played.  78 yards.  these are not bad numbers, but against the top teams, he was pretty pedestrian.  To me, that is why you watch film--you watch for tells or mistakes your opponent makes--you look to find some way to beat your opponent.  His stats were good, but if you take out the two games vs. bad teams, (over 500 yards) he averaged about 80 yards per game on a team that was throwing a lot because they were behind a lot. If you look at the game where he was facing the equivalent of a #1 CB in the NFL, he got shut down.
