Doug Marrone

[snowvols]

has been mentioned now in various places.

Ironically he was mentioned as a possible NFL Head Coach candidate by Peter King yesterday.

Excerpt from his article.

5. I think these sound like the top five college coaching candidates for NFL head coaching jobs, per chats with front office people in the last two weeks (in order):
1. Chip Kelly, Oregon
2. David Shaw, Stanford
3. Brian Kelly, Notre Dame
4. Kirk Ferentz, Iowa (even coming off the bad season at Iowa, he's well-respected in the NFL)
5. Doug Marrone, Syracuse.


He coached at UGA one year, Tennessee one year and was OC for the Saints under Sean Payton for 3 years before taking the Syracuse job.

Marrone = Dooley-esque HC record (24-25)

Too bad for us.

I agree....who of us has not made a mistake....albeit not on a national level...he was completely embarrassed...now the affair is btw him and his family...I could care less....Im not looking at him as a potential date for my daughter....I am looking at him to be a Football Coach
