Per PFT, Bieniemy becomes logical candidate for CU Buffaloes job
I think he stays with the Chiefs for one more year and gets hired by an NFL team next year.

Are you sure? College coaches make a LOT. The top college coaches make significantly more than NFL coaches. My guess is that he currently makes in the high triple digits or low 1 millions. The current CU coach makes $2.4 mil per year (https://www.denverpost.com/2018/12/1...loes-contract/). My guess is that a big name like Bieniemy would be able to negotiate even more as a starting point. Continued success could easily drive him higher (https://thebestschools.org/magazine/...llege-coaches/) and college coaching job security is typically a minimum of 4 years barring disaster.
NFL head coaches range from $8 mil to $3.5 mil with pretty weak job security. (http://coacheshotseat.com/NFLCoachesSalaries.htm)And is he even guaranteed a HC job? If he gets one, will it be for a terrible team with little hope for success, such as the Redskins? Good luck getting another HC gig after that. |

I kinda think he wants to take over the reins after Big Red retires in next couple of years. Why not just coach Mahomes to a HOF coaching career with multiple Super Bowls under his belt?

EB's next stop will be as a NFL HC. I can't see him taking a step down to Coach the Buffies.

Very smart by Colorado.
Start here with your coaching search. Why even look elsewhere until he tells you no? Really just comes down to whether he prefers the college and pro game. I could see him take the job. He seems to really enjoy helping build up young men. I would have to believe he would be a great recruiter. I don’t think he’ll take it though. I bet he’s back with the Chiefs. |

College football gives you more longevity, but it's ****ing rough, man.
You can be the perfect head coach and if you land in the wrong program, you might never see true success. Bieniemy is probably going to be a fine head coach, but he has the potential to fail spectacularly if he takes that CU job, moreso than if he took over an NFL team. He fails in the NFL, then he just goes back to being an OC/RB coach and then maybe tries again. He fails at the CU job, and he might never have a shot at an NFL HC position. And some coaches just prefer being a college HC. That's fine. I don't know if Bieniemy is like that, but if he is, he should maybe consider it. |

Good for EB. He'll be able to leverage this to get a nice pay raise from KC to run the offense for one more year before having the pick of his job openings.

There could be some seriously big NFL head coaching jobs available next season.
The Jets, the Falcons, the Bears, the Jags, maybe more. |
