That's not even what I meant though. I wasn't trying to imply that he isn't a good coach anymore. What I meant was that guys like Dungy, Cowher, and Holmgren left on their own terms. If they want to get back into coaching, they don't have to explain away the reasons why they were fired. This is a good thing for the Gophers, in that guys like Billick and Gruden, while still held in high regard by most, might be seen as "damaged goods" by some (rightly or wrongly), and that could force them to take a job "below their grade" (i.e., the Gophers) if they want to get back on the horse.
