Oh gosh...

I think Jon Gruden has the best job in the world and I'm not sure I'd leave if I were him.

My thought is Jon Gruden is a huge name, great personality, and a horrible option for a college job.

- He is notoriously hard on his QBs. How will he deal with college kids who have limited time to be coached and limited experience?
- He hasn't coached in a long time, who exactly would he bring in as his staff? A bunch of guys he has never worked with because he'd need to find guys with college experience?
- He has never been a head coach in college, how will the different game play and all the recruiting rules affect him?
- He won a Super Bowl with Tony Dungy's team and then was fired within what, 4 seasons? The only guy I can think of who won a championship and got fired (or will be fired soon) is Gene Chizik.... So is Gruden a great coach or is he basically a great personality who happened to fall into a great team that masked his issues?

That was a funny, well-made video by those guys!

As a lot of you have said, I don't get the fascination a lot of college fans have with Gruden. If I'm an AD at a BCS school, I'd honestly do everything in my power to get a guy like Chris Petersen or Pat Fitzgerald. Those are two guys that have consistently won where they have no business winning. Think about what they could do at a place where they aren't fighting with one arm tied behind their back.

He's another guy that definitely warrants consideration - good call.
