That's not true though. There are only 32 of this job in the world, and despite all the negatives about it, it's still highly coveted.
You DO eliminate the Belichick/Cowher type who have nothing left to prove and have a big ego, but is that really the type of coach we want?
The fact that a highly respected coach like Mariucci is interested in this position really does disprove your point though. If Mooch is OK with the set up, then I have to assume that 95% of coaches who are out of a job would also be.
I'll give you that it's a definite negative if you are competing directly with another franchise for someone's services, but notice how we didn't hire Zorn/Blache until all the other HC openings were filled.
