Don't forget Dennis Erickson, who couldn't even get a decent college job after being in the NFL. He's now back at Idaho.

>Are you serious about Nick Saban? IMO he is Exhibit #299 why college coaches, with very few exceptions, don't make it in the NFL. The college style of 50% inspiration and 50% intimidation falls flat with pro players who make $1M+/year. They are way beyond that. After the Fishes' latest loss he b***hed publicly about his players. How's that for not being baited by the media? IMO they are about two weeks away from quitting on him, if they haven't already. See Spurrier, S., Holtz, L., and many, many others. How many elite college coaches can you think of who became elite NFL coaches? OK, Jimmy Johnson. Go on....
