Met Willie multiple times, great guy.  Despite his nonstop efforts to become an NFL coach, no team will hire him. 

I believe that "well respected" coaches can get jobs.  And we all know that great players dont necessarily make great evaluators or coaches.


So there's a really fun story behind this that goes all the way back to Willie Anderson's time in Cincy.

Willie hurt his hand before the season one year and Paul Alexander and Willie developed a way for him to play using mostly 1 hand. That developed into "Independent Hands". It's a technique used to the advantage of length. Willie and Paul taught it to Andrew Whitworth and these guys should end up in the Hall of Fame. After Willie retired teams asked him to come around and talk to their younger guys about technique but not to teach them any of that wild stuff lol. Paul Alexander continued to teach it to Bengals players through the 2000 teens and they had the best pass blocking line during that period. Paul was fired over fan outrage and scapegoat after Ogbuehi and Fisher went to the Cowboys and was fired because the staff and players didn't want to learn this new pass blocking technique and Paul probably pushed it because it works.



Now we have the OL symposium where there guys get together and talk about different ways they win individually and help other young players understand they are all different and one way might work better than foe them then how they are being taught. Paul has spoken at these symposiums (amazing stuff) and has mentioned he's been offered jobs but is happy in retirement.
