Would Tom Brady make a good head coach?
I was thinking about future UM coaches. Harbaugh played for UM and is now our coach. Juwan Howard has made over $100 million dollars playing basketball. He isn’t coaching for the money. It’s a passion. With Brady eventually retiring, he seems like a guy that football is his only passion. I can’t picture him doing TV and sitting on a beach. Playing with Belichek for 2 decades, the guy has been part of a dynasty. Could you see Brady becoming a head coach someday? And odds he would do it at Michigan?

There is zero evidence that Tom Brady has true coaching talent. He may be obsessively devoted to making himself the best QB he can be, but that’s an entirely different thing than dealing with everything the typical coach has to deal with. Given the numerous examples across all sports of elite athletes being mediocre or worse coaches, it’s more likely that Brady would be Bart Starr or Ted Williams than Jim Harbaugh.

Quarterbacks coach for Michigan? Yes please
Probably not, the best players rarely do. I think him and Peyton are the best QBs we have ever seen, and for that same reason could never be coaches- they expect perfection. Plus he's definitely gonna go the politics route.
Brady should really think about being a NFL consultant to franchises. A qb coach guru. Motivational Speaker. People will listen to him.
James Franklin would hire him.

Great coaches have the exceptional ability to communicate. At all levels. They can decipher an athletes skills and abilities, and understand how to plug in the necessary skills to elevate them to another level. They have patience. They have the fortitude to keep working it until the athlete makes it over the top.
Yes, he’d be awesome. He’s essentially the pats offensive coordinator.
