First let me say I am pumped about the direction this team is heading! We are going to have some kinda fun watching this team.

My question, given the hiring of Mularkey and the recently renewed rumors about Capers is this, how well do head coaches make the transition back to coordinator? Do they historically have any issues stepping a bit out of the light and allow the HC to do his job? I personally don't think this will be an issue, but any information or past examples would be appreciated.

Belichick is the one that sticks out.....trying to think if another has made the jump from HC, back to Coordinator more recently.

Then of course BB moved back to HC the next opportunity. So from that one small sample....its pretty good. He went back to Coordinator and did fine.

Those coaches are coming from teams that have **** the beds. Actually for Capers his team **** the bed, picked it up, ate it, then vomitted all over the bed and then got gut shot by a small Phiilipino woman named Glenda while going to the hospital to get it's stomach pumped.

They can't wait to get back to the X's and O's of it all. Especially on Saban's team where they know they'll amost never be allowed to talk to the media. They get to do what they love, get paid well, and not have to deal with the media BS. Coach Nirvana for them. Until they get the hankering in their loins to leave Miami in a few years and take another beating ala Rocky IV.

The way i see it is, that they are co-ordinators that never quite made it too the next level, rather than HC's turned Co-ordinators
 
I can imagine its tough. Jim Bates said he wasn't willing to do it for a guy he didn't know well. thats why he left here in the first place. For someone like capers, its gonna take some getting used to. Mularkey, not so much. I think mularkey got the Buffalo job prematurely, he wasn't ready for it just yet, and he didn't fully deserve it yet either. Capers deserved the Houston job though, but the man doesn't know how to build a franchise. He knows how to start them...but not how to keep them going.
 
Bates ain't a fair comparison. He was never really truly a head coach for Miami, just an "interim" head coach.
