I hope he ends up a head coach but either way we lose him.
This is something that seems like a perpetual problem, if you do find a coordinator who excels then you lose them to becoming a head coach. It’s kinda cool as a legacy I guess if you can be part of a coaching tree but I think it would be cool to see our team raise up and develop coordinators. Does a defensive coach limit the ability to grow the offensive minded side of the philosophy? Curious to look at the coaching trees of the nfl like bill walsh or bill parcels, or Pete Carrol or bill belichick. Mcvay? John Harbaugh, Andy reed? Thoughts?

If things remain the same 1 year. Debour syndrome. Rising star ends up at the top of the mountain then craps out. Probably a head coach for the Saints he returns to.

I dont think he has the perdonality or gravitas to be a HC.

I think he will be good enough to not fire, but not so great that he is in demand as the next hot HC candidate.
I would like to see him stick around but even longevity is enough to get teams looking at a guy for a coaching spot

For that, Papa Gary might need to take a head coaching job somewhere just so he can pass the job on to beloved Klint, as he has done over and over and over in Klint's career.

Good question, but I think it's hard to tell who Kubiak will turn out to be. He's 38, so it's not like he's the wunderkind, and he hasn't exactly wowed people yet.

In any case, I think he's around for a couple of years because getting the head coaching gig requires not only doing a good job as an OC but team success. Generally, the coordinators of the most successful teams are the ones that get the HC jobs.

In before the "Keep the subject title shorter"

Suit him up and put him at RG.
Wait how’d you know they would change it? It wasn’t even long…?

Kubiak: hired or fired?
Short enough?

I wrote a newspaper article in college that earned first place for sports writing in Washington State Community Colleges

They edited my title of that too

I've implied this in the "Kubiak Offense" thread, I do see Kubiak doing a good job with the Seahawks, I can see him in the mold of Bevell/Schotty, where he can help the offense put up good numbers and win games, but sticking around longer than a year simply because he doesn't seem to have the kind of aura about him that guys like Ben Johnson do.
