Mike Vrabel 2018

Coaches at all levels must be wondering about Mike Vrabel who was named as the Titans head coach today. So many of them spend decades in pursuit of the next level, but never get there.

Vrabel made it to this point on seven years of coaching experience after his 14 year NFL career. He had three years as an assistant at Ohio State before being hired by Bill O'Brien in Houston. He made the most of his four years there and was Defensive Coordinator in 2017.

The stars all lined up for Vrabel. He had connections at his former school Ohio State and spent seven years on the Pats with Bill O'Brien.

Titans GM Jon Robinson also spent seven years with the Pats as a scout while Vrabel was there.

Will this be a great signing? The majority ownership of the team is for sale. Does this effect things going forward?
