Browns interested in interviewing Condoleeza Rice for HC

Anakim : 11/18/2018 10:39 am
I thought this was an Onion article. I thought this may have been an April Fool's Joke.


But this actually seems legit. Check out the Schefter article. Unbelievable.

Seriously coaching around the league is stale and predictable. Some innovation couldn't hurt, besides NFL coaching is a lot of delegating and oversight and leadership. Rice has plenty of that. Wont happen but Interested in seeing what would happen

Coach?  
pjcas18 : 11/18/2018 11:34 am : link
I could see her bringing a ton of leadership value to the team in a large number of capacities, but coach?

other than satisfying the rooney rule I see no way this is serious.
I think she's incredibly intelligent  
allstarjim : 11/18/2018 11:37 am : link
And I admire her a lot, but this is one of the most bizarre stories I've ever read.

I just don't get it. How would she lead a locker room?

.

I saw her do an interview with Feherty about a year ago,
I know she has been a professor at Stanford for awhile now...
She also was on the college football playoff committee a couple years ago as well.
Maybe a consultant for the Browns, just a plausible scenario.

I heard her say that her goal was to one day be the commissioner of the NFL. She loves football.
Could she be any worse than Hughie?  
trueblueinpw : 11/18/2018 11:44 am : link
Isn’t our current HC the more successful coach there in the past two or three decades? Pretty low bar for success around that franchise.

Tell that to Aaron Boone or the Yankees....
Rice  
Lines of Scrimmage : 11/18/2018 12:11 pm : link
Brilliant and well educated. Not sure of the angle here. So is she going to out-coach someone who has invested their life to the game?
Aaron Boone actually played baseball  
UConn4523 : 11/18/2018 12:13 pm : link
and was around it his entire life. Rice, while extremely educated and smart has done what exactly that would qualify her to gameplan an NFL game.

If this was a front office interview I’d be curious to see how it could play out. But HC? Yeah ok.
I guess the angle  
Oscar : 11/18/2018 12:14 pm : link
Is just that she would be a skilled administrator and hire/manage people to make all football decisions but that’s really more team president or GM than coach.

They have 7 wins ove the last 4 seasons. 7 wins the season before that

Then 5 or less wins all the way to 2010. I mean what are they going to do with Rice. Lose games and finish 4th in the division again. Like every single other year. I mean what could it hurt??
