Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

A little over a week after Grambling parted ways with one former NFL star as head coach, another one is apparently throwing his name in the hat. According Grambling State's student newspaper, The Gramblinite, former New Orleans Saints Star Joe Horn has announced he is interested in becoming the school's next head coach.

Horn spoke at Grambling for the school's constitution lecture. He talked about the reputation the university has for the relationship between students and faculty, in addition to adding that he'd like to be considered for Doug Williams' old spot.

Horn has no head coaching experience, but he is a recognizable name in recent Louisiana football history. He spent over a decade in the NFL, most notably with the Saints. Horn earned four Pro Bowl nods in his seven years with the Saints. He was selected to the team's Hall of Fame in 2012.

Grambling is looking for a coach to replace Williams, a former Super Bowl MVP and star quarterback for the Tigers. Williams was fired last Wednesday, and George Ragsdale took over as interim head coach.

I love Joe but come on man really who will hire you to be the head coach of a major college.

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Is Grambling considered a "Major" college?

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Has Joe ever coached anything?

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Dude come on. He did stuff as an adult I would not even consider as a 15 year old.

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

I don't think any HBCU is considered major. I would've much rather played JUCO.

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

He has a BBQ sauce. That has to count for something?

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

I'd LOVE it! Grambling would be fun to watch again. Joe might even teach the band some new moves?

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

No one knows how good of a coach he is or could be. Even Payton, as great a coach he is had to start somewhere...

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Maybe he can implement that BBQ sauce with his playbook on the football field...

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Or attach the play book to the bottle to sell Dat Sauce. :)

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Uhhmmmmm............okay

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

I'm over at Grambling all the time. Is Grambling a major college? Umm...no.

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Joe Horn. Really

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Maybe Joe could start as a receiver coach somewhere? Love the guy, think he might be aiming a bit too high. LOL

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

They should go after someone like Dennis Green ... he's available.

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Does he have a BBQ sauce too?

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Ability to play a position does not always translate well to the ability to coach and mentor.

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

WTF..... Dennis Green has college eligibility left?

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

No, but the last time I saw DG on the sidelines he looked like he could cook, :lol:.

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Hey anything can happen - right?

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Maybe not but shouldn't you start as a assistant or high school.

Re: Ex-Saints Receiver Wants To Coach Grambling
 

Yep, like politic..... Never mind.
