I just think it is telling that he has never been a DC before. He is a great position coach/motivator from all accounts. But the problem I heard about in his time in SF was the inability to gameplan. He has just never shown any X and O knowledge which is almost 100% of being a DC. If we were to hire him as a DC, what qualifications would we be hiring him based on?
My guess is that he lands as a college head coach where his overall football tough guy mindset helps him to be a skillful recruiter and motivator, while the scheme side of things is not as sharp as the NFL.
