I am not talking about a big huge school in the SEC but a smaller type program where he could work his way up to the top.

He is a pretty inspiring guy and seems to be very knowledgeable with X's and O's.

He would be a great fit for like a Christian school or something like that

He could be the next Hugh Freeze without the philandering.

No, his demeanor is too soft. He speaks like a backstreet boy who took too much pre-workout.

Doubtful. Players that have talent and skill beyond the typical find it hard to teach things that come naturally to them.

Not a dig at Tebow.

I always thought Peyton Manning would go into coaching but that makes a lot of sense. You don't really see guys who were stars being topnotch coaches.

It's odd but most all the best coaches were pretty mediocre players.

I think a lot of that is because the better players have longer careers and plenty of money.

You're way more likely to get into coaching after a two year NFL career than at 40 with generational wealth.

Exactly this. And, the above poster is correct, that highly talented players do struggle teaching the basics.

You can't teach what comes naturally.

For instance. How could I teach somebody else how to be incredibly good looking?

I love Tim. Always have, always will.

But I'm gonna be honest, he just doesn't sound that smart to me. He knows what he's trying to say, but it just comes across like a kid is saying it... it's hard to explain. I don't see it talked about much here. I am honestly surprised he's been allowed to -stay- in the host/commentator spot light. I say all that to say I think a good head coach in the college game has to be an effective communicator and has to be sharp regarding how to make players' perception of them what it needs to be etc.

I don't think so.

He's probably a very genuine guy. But his passion mixed with his demeanor is just too cringey.

I don't think he's phony at all. But good lord he comes off as phony.

ETA: He also seems pretty dumb

Of all the reasons I could see being given, this one probably makes the least sense.
