Would I want him as my GM? Nope, too much power and responsibility for one guy. But I'd take him (and his hatred for our two biggest rivals) on our sideline all day, every day.

The only way He would be a good HC for us would be if there was a strong GM that did not allow him to make any decisions for the defensive side of the ball.

He has proven over the last 3 years that he is no better at fielding a decent defensive team than we have been.
