College Coaches

A guy like Shaw who did coach in the NFL for 10 years I think could pull it off. For some guys though going to the NFL makes no sense. They make a lot of money in college and they can simply get the best players and dominate. They are treated like gods in those college towns versus being second guessed by the media every week in the NFL.

I think that's one of the biggest things. If you're a coach at one of the big schools you've got the luxury of saying "play for me for a couple years and I'll make you a millionaire" and there's no salary cap (outside of scholarships I guess). NFL coaches, as Sunset touched on, don't have that to motivate/recruit.
