There is one name being debated and the main objection is that he has never been a head coach for a college basketball team.
What about in football?
In other words, are there examples of NFL coaches making the jump with no college head coaching experience? For example, would anyone blink an eye if a college team hired a current offensive coordinator with some NFL head coaching experience, even if he had never led a college program?
I’m not sure if it is even a relevant question (as the sports are very different), but it did pop into my mind.
