I'm curious why people are so sure of this.
I get the excitement part. But he hasn't coached in college since 1991 and hasn't been in coaching period since 2008. Can he recruit?
Know I'm going to be in the minority on this one, but I think his NFL tenure is mildly overrated. What he did in Oakland (taking a mediocre-to-bad team into the playoffs) is actually more impressive than what he did in Tampa. He won a Super Bowl there in his first year with a historically good defense someone else assembled, then was completely mediocre after that for several years. Didn't win a single playoff game after that SB.
IMO his biggest asset starting out would be notoriety. He could recruit with Alabamas and OSUs the moment he stepped on campus. Also, he has the ability to bring in the actual BSIA. Coaches would be lining up to join him. And then of course there is the fact that he is a great X and Os guy, bleeds football, and is actually a great coach. We would get good fast
But he ain't coming
