And it seemed like he got teary-eyed during his press conference too Same. I remember him even saying he asked other HC’s what do you have to do to become a HC. Seems like he was very interested for a long time, but eventually accepted his fate it was never gonna happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've argued Dave Toub should get a look for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Special Teams guys rarely ever get hired and it seems he eventually accepted that at some point during his 20 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBXISBXVSBXVIII Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Wondering if any special teams coaches have been hired as a HC (not interim HC)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just find it hard to believe that one of gruden’s arguably “closest friend” in the coaching world doesn’t share the same language and beliefs.
