NFL guys don't want to come back to college, there are some rare cases. But they like the NFL because there's no recruiting involved and there is more time with family. The overall quality of life is better as College Football is a year round job now with 1 week off in December and a few days off in July.

also take into consideration that the differences in coaching college vs the NFL mean some guys are good coaching one and terrible in another. ask Spurrier.

That is a good thing. Defilippo has held O.C. positions for two NFL teams and was let go after one year for the 1st one and lasted 13 games for the 2nd one. He may be a perfect choice for a college O.C.

His longest stay in college was at San Jose State, 2 years. He's been a journeyman in the NFL, so it's not like he was ultra successful in college and decided to give the pro's a try. He will get another job in the NFL, just like Jim Bob Cooter.

The Vikings' offense has sputtered as of late, putting up 17 points combined in back-to-back losses to New England and Seattle. Minnesota has not been able to surpass 300 yards of offense in four of its past five games

After ranking sixth in offensive efficiency under Shurmur during the 2017 season, the Vikings tumbled to 24th this season with DeFilippo. A large problem has been the lack of a running game, as the Vikings have averaged just 85.4 yards on the ground per game, ranking 30th in the NFL.

Much of the team's inability to ignite a rushing attack has to do with Minnesota's offensive line, which has not been able to create consistent windows for a running game in 2018.

He sounds perfect

Yep, but Saban has adjusted pretty good to the change back to college. Spurrier's offense had too many gimmicks to be effective in the NFL when he saw all the NFL $$$$ . Who knows, it may have work today. I agree with a post above which points out they do not have to be o the road recruiting 80 - 100 hours a week.

Just what we need; an incompetent and demoted NFL coach. No way. Just because you get to the big dance doesn't mean you can dance. No rejects need apply.
