I'm sorry, but I guess I'm in the minority. I see no reason why Ward would be a good coach. He has zero experience. I love the guy, but I want someone that knows how how to teach.

Michael Irvin is one of the all time great receivers in NFL history. He's never coached a day. Zero "teaching" experience. But have you ever seen him do one of his elite receiver camps on NFL network? The dude knows more about receiver technique than you could possibly fathom. And you know why? Because when you receive instruction on something for 20 years, you sorta learn how it works.

I'm pretty freaking sure Hines Ward was paying attention to his teachers and their methods and hasn't forgotton how to show someone how he was taught and what he learned. In fact, I'd bet he's already done this at multiple dozens of training camps and mentored several dozen would be prospects over the years, not to mention many of the new receiver teammates he had under him while he was playing.

Acting like he'd be ineffective simply because he hasn't had the monicker of "Coach" before his name yet is simply obtuse and borderline retarded.

How much experince did Steve Spurrier have when he became UF's QB coach in the late 70's?

Not saying HW will or won't be a solid coach...I think it depends on the individual and the circumstances and how much someone would really want to do it.
