[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 924333, member: 4572"] Go ahead and try to build a “moneyball” staff on your own of just current NFL coaches to coach a current NFL team. A league where every team is more or less equal talent and resources wise with way fewer variables than college football. The very first thing you have to do is find a head coach who is willing to let the front office, or administration, or owner, or whoever else in an authority role entirely pick his staff for him. Good luck finding anyone who would consent to that. That’s a dumb thing to even consider anyway. But let’s say you find a poor brave soul willing to do it. What exactly are you going to “moneyball” about a coaching staff? Coaching is about leading and having a strong relationship with your team as much as it is about anything X’s and O’s related. You think you can just pick 11 random coaches who are all going to magically get on the same page about what direction the team needs to be going? It’s infeasible, and impossible to expect something like that to work. Moneyball isn’t possible in football like it is in baseball, or even basketball. There are far too many variables involved, and not enough games to see the fruits of your labor, especially when your entire strategy is centered on the coaching staff and not the players anyway.
