I say borderline candidate but nice guy rep helps him and he gets in eventually.

 

[RepTheGables]

Yes.

 

[OldhamA]

No.

 

[nystateofmind]

He certainly deserves it.

Missing the ship as a HC

 

[IRememberSchnelly]

Why the **** would anyone care? It's certainly not going to be based on anything he did in Coral Gables.

 

[Alien]

Heck’s no! More like cfb ring of honor.

For someone with that username, that's kinda ironic.

True, but two chips as OC. I think it might be enough in terms of overall coaching career.

 

[Dude]

True, but two chips as OC.

Still, never was a top 5 HC in any era. Not elite.

 

[TerragonSix]

Body of work? Yes, he should. Inadvertently, by leaving the way he did, might help his chances getting in.

I don't think any of us would just walk away from 15 million dollars like he did. Respect.

 

[rccollins]

Jerome Brown is still not in,,**** nah to richt.

Devils advocate- he was an elite OC in the 90s

 

[cane_boi]

Yes and he will choose Malik Rosier to introduce him at the induction ceremony

Do OCs get in the CF HoF? I do agree though, he is the picture of a nice, father figure CF coach and that will help him. So I guess, I wouldnt be surprised at all, but I wouldnt vote for him.

 

[JgDaCane]

0% chance

 

[supersaiyanshel]

Down the road. Eventuallly. But **** have to wait.

Apparently only HCs although there might be a loophole. That being said, since coordinators make so much money now that being a career coordinator is a legit option, I fully expect the rules to change to allow coordinators. If Bud Foster doesn't get in, that would be a shame.

His speech would be riveting as he’d remember his players by the jersey numbers written on his index cards.
