Rams reach out to Kliff Kingsbury as offensive assistant/consultant

[jrry32]

I think Kingsbury is an idiot if he passes on this opportunity. He can take the USC job and still coach with us through the end of the year. There is so much he could learn by working with Sean McVay, Wade, Kromer, Bones, and all the other talented coaches here. There's so much he could learn by being in the facility and seeing how a top team is run. This sort of opportunity is worth its weight in gold. Passing on it shows me that he lacks foresight.

do you really think USC would allow him to be with us these next few months instead of recruiting? I sure dont

I call BS !! To each his own . I think he made an excellent choice for his career.

In college it is about recruiting. He is set up to be the HC at USC !! Tell Pete Carroll he is an idiot. He stayed at USC as long as he could. Now with Seattle. In a league they say Not For Long ?? Who knows if USC would have passed on him if he takes The Rams spot. What’s he going to get paid ???

Fight On !!

Totally agree . Didn’t make it to your post.

Yep, I think he has the bargaining power for that. Plus, recruiting is about to hit the dead period.

It's an idiotic decision. And I'm not sure how he's in a position to be HC of USC. If he does well, Helton stays. If he doesn't, why would they give him the job?

It's a move that is lacking in foresight. That is especially true for a coach who has a lot to learn.

And don't even try to compare him to Pete Carroll. 1. He was the head coach of USC, and 2. He has been in Seattle for as long as he was with USC. There's no comparison between the two.

 

[So Ram]

Yeah - Pete Carroll was DC for one of the best teams .in NFL history.
IMO

One thing is true is it will play out one way or another. The recruiting class is now !! February is the biggest time of year for recruits. Not sure how that would work ?

Helton ?

MacVay , The Rams winning a Super Bowl priceless.

Hypothetically, it would make sense to decline a lucrative offer to be a college HC if you knew that you had one or more more lucrative offers to be a pro HC, right?

I haven't followed college ball this year. Why so much love for a guy who just got fired as a head coach?

It is puzzling.
He took over a decent program and chased away QB’s Davis Webb and Baker Mayfield, then couldn’t win with Patrick Mahomes.
Now he ran some prolific offenses and expectations were too high, but he only had 2 winning seasons in 6 years where 1 was his first season and the 2nd was a 7-6 year

I am beyond confused. He was a mediocre HC. I can understand why teams would be interested in him as an offensive coach, but I don't understand the HC looks.
