ShulaSteakhouse Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 But as the Michigan search approaches its third week, that confidence is not universal. The search could continue with college coaches. Missouri’s Gary Pinkel and Cincinnati’s Brian Kelly are possible candidates. The Wolverines’ defensive coordinator, Ron English, has been interviewed for the vacancies at Michigan and Arkansas. Michigan may also look at N.F.L. coaches, including the Oakland Raiders’ Lane Kiffin and the Cincinnati Bengals’ Marvin Lewis. But right now, Michigan’s search appears no closer to completion than it did when Carr retired.Link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some good experience, and then give the pro's a shot again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmyBengal Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 To tell you the truth, I think Marvin would be a very good college football coach. I would still like to see him given at least another year. The thought of Chucky being the next head coach would make me give up on the Bengals completely. I'm serious...WHODEY !!!

redsbengalsbucks Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 What catches my eye here is the fact that Michigan's D-cordinatior is actually getting interviews for jobs after the horrible D that has been put on the feild up there for two years now.

ShulaSteakhouse Posted December 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Actually I think, gulp, Paul Alexander would get the nod, if Marvin left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damiancasey Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Elite college football programs and the NFL are apples and oranges. Just because someone is a good (or bad) coach at one does not mean that he'll be good (or bad) at the other. You have to deal with completely different environments and both have their positives and negatives.Depending on what ML's achiles heel is...you could argue that he would do much worse at UM than in Cincy. I think, for example, that he would be under much more of a microscope at UM than in Cincy...on the other hand...he would have much more control over his players...

COB Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 The Paul Alexander option just made me shiver. New York Times can say all it wants about the UM job, but I don't think they know much about college football. Other than the fact that most of their staff hates it. Possibly Marvin's agent leaked this fantasy to either take a potshot at an extension, or to get his name out there as an available candidate for other hc jobs?
