Cleveland Browns looking to hire Urban???
- Thread starter rclmac
- Start date
Probably means we aren't going to get urban
No idea if that will go anywhere serious but if it does, I'd guess say hello Tom Herman.
Ohio State would hire Schiano & we'd be DOOOMED!!!!
Urban would be nuts to leave OSU to go to a suck NFL franchise, but I suppose stranger things have happened.
Coaching college football nearly killed Urban Meyer, and college coaching is a walk in the park compared to being an NFL HC.
While I'll never say never to anything, I think Urban as an NFL coach is probably as close to "never" as you can get.

Here's the link. It says that the Browns are prepared to offer Urban the moon, but they have no sources he's interested.
Considering this is literally the only source at this point, I'd say take it with a monstrous grain of salt.

I get why some guys would be thrown out as NFL HC candidates, but Urban Meyer, as good as he is, seems like the last one I'd think of. He just doesn't seem like an NFL scheme fit.
No sarcasm at all and yes I know he coached in the pros. I don't believe OSU would hire him as a HC. That also applies to Alabama, LSU or USC. Coach Schiano is a good coach but he can't treat college or especially Pro players like children. JMHO
The sarcasm was in the post about Schiano being hired by OSU. Nobody thinks OSU would hire Schiano.
You have that backwards. Good coaches aren't dumb enough to leave a head coaching position to take over the Browns.
Last year after he won the NC he said in an interview that the NFL could be something he would consider down the road.
Don't be surprised if he goes to Cleveland.

Dam you Mildone!! I must say you have a good sense of humor. Thank you.

You are kidding right? Most coaches would rather deal with NFL problem than college problems trust me.
Is it, though? I feel like as a college football coach you're focused on a lot of other stuff besides football, it's easier to burn out. NFL is win and you're good.

this is true about Cleveland, and Belichick wasn't great with Cleveland but he was fired after Modell took the team to Baltimore so I'm not sure he really failed. His record was 36-44, better winning percentage than any coach since (not saying a whole lot), but who know what could have happened.
The recipe for success at the pro-level has generally included at least one of these three ingredients, regardless of the coach:
1.) A dominant defense with multiple pro-bowlers
2.) A dominant run game with pro-bowl caliber backs & line
3.) A top-5 franchise QB
Superior preparation, schemes, and tactics can make the difference in a game or two, but even Lord Sweatshirt himself (and WITH all the cheating) was unable to win consistently year after year absent at least one of the above.
Chip Kelly is finding this out the hard way.

Belichek didn't have Brady in Cleveland.
Take Brady out of NE and let's see how many titles they win.
