Could Eddie George land in the NFL coaching ranks sometime in the future?

So Eddie's first game as head coach will be in South Bend next Saturday. It'll be a nice pay day for the program, and one they probably don't get without him at the helm. I hope he does for TSU what Deion did for JSU, and it leads to bigger opportunities.

And then he can immediacy send game tape to coach Day!

Eddie's Tigers dropped their final game but still finished 6-5, an improvement over 3-8 last year.

Cmon home Eddie!!!

He was bad and on the verge of being fired after their first few years. I'm not sure I'd take a one year wonder as a coach

Fair. But this is his first HC job, right? It makes sense he wouldn't have immediate success at a lower tier program. That's why coaches should have to prove themselves and gain that experience before getting the keys to a program like tOSU, unlike what happened with Day

Guy turned around a shit program. I'd say he's on the verge of making the jump. Might not be this year but it's coming.

Yes but if you are getting rid of Day I would prefer more seasoning for him to prove it's not a 1 year thing and prove it at another bigger school as well. Though it may not be possible if the move is in the next few years

Idk if waiting that long is possible in this day and age. If Urban were just about to end his BG stint today, pretty sure there are more than a couple big boys that grab him before he has to go to Utah

But then the question is Urban Urban without Utah?
