seriously ?...Rob Ryan being denied Head coaching jobs because of his hair

[ram29jackson]

I 'm about image as much as the next guy. That's why I had my eye/s done. But after all this time if you cant tolerate personal style in a showmanship business...its just dumb. Half these wealthy owners wear some really stupid styles because they are so rich.

everyone cant look like Bill Parcells and no one wears a suit now Anyway.

On paper, Rob Ryan of the Saints appears to have a stellar NFL head coaching resume.

The 51-year-old has worked as a defensive coordinator for four teams, including the Cleveland Browns, who are looking for a new head coach. In his first year in New Orleans, Ryan turned one of the worst defenses in NFL history into the fourth-ranked unit in the league. His short tenure has been so impressive that Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has already admitted that it was a mistake to fire Ryan.

Ryan's schemes and teaching methods are in high demand, especially with NFL offenses advancing at such a fast pace. So, what's holding him back?

Apparently, it's not what's in Ryan's head that scares away teams, it's what's on his head.

needs to work on the weight more than the hair

He'd be a better coach than Jim fucking Caldwell.

its the .com era. People don't wear suits anymore. Business casual is khaki's and a collared shirt in offices all over. Suit and tie is gone. Who gives a damn if your hair isn't neck high?

I get what you're saying Ram, but if all it takes is for Rob Ryan to get a haircut, what's the big deal? Rex did it ... and lost weight.
I agree with you on the khakis and collared shirt thing, but you don't see that many people in serious office environments with hair that long.

That would be a good fit if he brought in the right offensive co-ordinator and let that co-ordinator do his job. Rob Ryan and Johnny Manziel would give that fanbase something to be optimistic about. Fun on both sides of the ball and hope.

that's the point, its football not a Lawyers firm.

 

[Glenbino]

Rob Ryan is a schmuck

 

[Tailback U]

He is kind of a jackass to be a head coach.

The irony in the op is great though considering rams was bashing Kaep for having tattoos less than 6 months ago.

So it's ok for a coach to have long hair, but not ok for a qb to have tats. You're a weird guy, ace.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

A man should have a decent haircut and be friendly with his razor.

Also, no such thing as overdressed.

I suspect an NFL coach is under 100x more pressure than most lawyers. While that is a sad commentary on society (and maybe not), it's a fact. No lawyer faces the TV audience. talk radio or 80,000 fans every week that an NFL coach faces. And I don't care how smart a lawyer is, he doesn't economically affect a business as much as Bill Belichick or coaches like him.

I've always been surprised coaches don't wear 00 jerseys with HNIC on the nameplate.

Baseball's the only sport that has it right.

being a veteran coach and growing your hair is quite different from drawing stupid permanent crap on yourself when you're too young to know any better.

It's a little bit different when your jersey is basically a button up shirt

It's a life lesson. From your friendly pal, W2B.

As the mantra goes: Long haired, freaky people need not apply.

Unless you're 10 or under, you know tattoos are permanent.
