Browns want to interview Condoleezza Rice for head-coaching job
Adam Schefter
ESPN Senior Writer Browns general manager John Dorsey said last week that he was opening to hiring a woman as Cleveland's next head coach, and there is one prominent name on the team's wish list to interview. The Browns would like to interview former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice for their head coaching job, a league source tells ESPN. If the Browns follow through on their plans, Rice would become the first woman ever to interview for an NFL head coaching job. Cleveland's interest in interviewing Rice comes at a time when women recently have moved into decision-making roles in men's professional sports. The Spurs hired Becky Hammon as an assistant coach, the Buffalo Bills hired Kathryn Smith as a quality control assistant, the Raiders hired Kelsey Martinez to their strength staff, and the 49ers hired Katie Sowers as an offensive assistant. A potential interview hardly means the Browns will hire Rice, but they are interested in talking to her about the job and seeing what she could bring to the position and the organization. "She's an amazing person," one Browns source told ESPN. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/2...d-coaching-job Well? |

The Browns aren't accomplishing anything on the field so they might as well be a beacon for affirmative action.

did I miss something, does she have football experience? I get the idea for GM or support roles, but WTF would you want a head coach with no football experience?

I'm sure her leadership skills is pretty good, but I have absolutely no idea how she is on X and O's and game management.

The funny thing is, this would be one of the greatest "accomplishments" of the progressive movement ever, and progressive wouldn't even care because she's a Republican.

As I recall, she was touted as a real fan of the game, I think she was in a booth interview years ago on a Monday night or something, and people were really impressed with her knowledge of the Xs and Os of the game. At the time, there was talk of her being the Commisioner, or some other executive position. Certainly not a coach.
This smells of a PR stunt, but she IS quite knowledgeable about the game.

It's perfect.
"Indeed, the hurricane had hit New Orleans. … I called Secretary of Homeland Security Mike Chertoff , inquiring if there was anything I could do. 'It's pretty bad,' he said. We discussed the question of foreign help briefly, but Mike was clearly in a hurry. He said he'd call if he needed me. I hung up, got dressed, and went to see Spamalot. "The next morning, I went shopping at the Ferragamo shoe store down the block from my hotel, returned to the Palace … and again turned on the television. The airwaves were filled with devastating pictures from New Orleans." https://www.businessinsider.com/cond...atrina-2011-10 Condi Rice |

She was one of the inaugural members of the College Football Playoff selection committee, where she worked from 2013 to 2016. Rice also recently chaired a commision on college basketball that recommended major changes to the sport this year, including an end to the one-and-done rule.

Perhaps they think a head coach could simply delegate down to more knowledgeable staff on the offensive and defensive sides. It’s a corporate mindset.
