Gruden spent a total of 4 seasons in college (1986-1989) and 2 of those were as a grad assistant. One year as a passing game coach and another as a WR coach. Neither at a Division 1A school, much less in a power conference.
But he learned the strains of the college game. In pro sports, it's all about that sport. That's what all of the time is spent on. In college, kids have classes to attend. The NCAA limits the number of hours that can be spent in practice. There is a HUGE difference....not to mention, in bball, the NBA game and the college game are two very different games.

Yeah, so tell me what all Gruden learned as a grad assistant back in 1986 that he would have been able to apply to his college coaching philosophy in 2012.
