I think the game has evolved that a younger, yet very knowledgeable, coach relates better to today player in general. That however, wouldn’t disqualify at 60 year old who could manage younger coordinators… just keep the college guys in college, please.

And I’m older than dirt by the way.



Valid points, all, First...  Well, except your degree of "oldness". That's open for discussion.!! Joker

My comment about "experience" does not disqualify a younger coach, as you obviously understand. However, I am not certain how a "young" coach could possibly have any 'significant' NFL experience without first having college experience. Almost ALL (perhaps ALL..) NFL coaches started first as college coaches. There may be a couple somewhere that started as an "understudy", "work-study", or "intern".... but I can't name any right now. Especially any successful coaches.!!

So any successful coaching candidate for the Panthers, I would want to see ten years of increasing coaching responsibility with a significant portion of that being in the NFL.  I can't see a 30 Y.O. "coach" meeting that standard, unless he started as an "intern" with a NFL franchise as soon as he graduated from college..... OR perhaps a player who was forced to retire very early and immediately took up coaching.?? Maybe..??
