Heupel and the NFL

[BADGER_VOL]

Maybe this has been discussed but does anyone feel there’s any threat he’d leave for the NFL if given the chance?

I don’t. For me everything about him oozes college football for life. I think his mind could do it but his heart seems locked in working with younger men and using recruiting along with his mind to build things.

He seems to love this age group and they resonate so well with him.

Don't think the NFL respects Heupel's offense but you're right he is perfect for college football and I'm grateful we have him.

Don't you know that he's going to Oklahoma dude. What rock have you been hiding under?

Nah! He bleeds orange now.

With fans like us why would want to leave?

Look I love Josh Heupel. I hope he is here for 20 years. His offense is unreal. But let’s be real. His system won’t work in the NFL. The chances of him being a success in the NFL are slim. Heupel is a college coach. And there is nothing wrong with that. The list of successful college and NFL coaches are pretty small.

The NFL is not for every college coach. (Spurrier, Saban, Kiffen). They all tried it and it didn't work. Heupel is not going to the NFL.

NFL OL would revolt against Heupel if he tried to make them play with tempo every down

In the NFL man on man with box loaded wouldn't be as dangerous as our WRs exposing secondaries and rb breaking free to open flanks

From what I understand the location of the hash marks in the NFL would not work with Heupel's offence. Heupel likes to use the wide part of the field to spread out the defense. I doubt he would want to completely rejigger his offence to make the leap to the NFL.

hash marks would make his style less effective

This is the 2nd thread this week of someone worrying about Heupel leaving. Lord.
