Gruden is absolute football savant. I’m a Buccaneers fan and watched firsthand as he won a Super Bowl and kept that team relevant despite a cheap and completely inept ownership group. He eats, breathes, and sleeps football. If a college team could get him signed, he would be a rockstar head coach. Between being a sports celebrity and his personal charisma, he’d leave Saban and Meyer in the dust on the recruiting trail. Can you imagine him in living rooms convincing moms to send their kids to his school?
So I get why his name is always in the mix. If a school could land him, he’d be an amazing head coach.
I think he'd be amazing too, but he'd have to prove that he can build relationships with HS kids and coaches... I think he would do really really well, but until he proves that he can, it's hard to justify $7 or $8m per year on a guy.
Do most Buc's fans regret firing him? I know his team's kind of stalled out in the end, and sometimes fresh faces are necessary, but that has to be one of the worst decisions in the history of the NFL.
