The Official 2014 Head Coaching Search / Candidate Thread

Harbaugh played for 13 years, and he played quarterback.

NFL experience isn't a guarantee of success, but Gase doesn't have anything close to a resume' that says 'head coach'.

Add Rivera's 8 years of football career too then.

Convo ends here: "NFL experience isn't a guarantee of success". You answered your own question.

Aaaahhh... no.  Using that logic you could justify hiring a successful high school coach.

 

Rivera had 14 years of NFL coaching experience, and success, before taking a head coaching job.  He had earned the shot.  He just wasn't good enough when he got it.

 

His failure really does nothing whatsoever to bolster the notion that Adam gase deserves a head coaching shot.

Look up clips of him from 'Hard Knocks'.

Like I said, "quirky" (and some would say that's kind).

Hasn't he already been turning down inquiries from pro teams though?

I think he wants to go back to the NFL, but I'm not 100% and you never know with penn state, that's one of the greatest head coaching jobs out there, although I know he never vehemently denied the question when asked about it so there's hope.
