KK will probably either go to the booth or perhaps the Nick Saban or Kirby Smart rehabilitation program as a highly paid OC or QB coach. I agree with the sentiment of a lot on this board that he is an example of a guy who has lucked into high paying gigs where he was marginally deserving at best.
Should we hire Kliff Kingsbury?

You geniuses think Mahomes is the only qb he's coached? Go look at his career and all the successful qbs he has had. There's no way he's coming to coach at baylor especially as a position coach lol. If he was interested in an OC job u give him all the money available
I mean it was a consensual affair between of age adults..and she was in Football Operations reported to him..but that wasn't as much of the issue as he lied to his athletic director and missed government funds..
And keep the clipboard holding duties from a grad? Hell no!
He was fired by cardinals?
No
Then why would we be thinking we'd hire an employee nfl headnCoach to be OC at baylor? Weird thread

Yes he was.
To be fair those Tech teams had some of the worst defense of all time. Worse than us under Phil Bennett. Offense wasn't the problem and that's what we would be hiring him for in the unlikely event it happened.
Just think, Texas A&M was so impatient on their coaching search that they went with Bobby Petrino instead of throwing oil money at this scenario pic.twitter.com/zGBaTRZ8VL

Maybe he will still pick up a call from Waco
As I just reported on FOX, multiple teams have contacted Kliff Kingsbury for their vacant OC job.

He bought a one way ticket to Thailand and has told teams (respectfully) that he’s not interested at the moment. @NFLonFOX

End of discussion
Haha
Let's just hire Urban Meyer + Art as our analysts and call it a day.
Maybe for QB coach if they move Bell somewhere else. He did have some success doing that: he coached Johnny Manziel to a Heisman & he coached Patrick Mahomes. Admittedly, Mahomes's college record wasn't the best but he had enough talent to become an NFL starter & Super Bowl MVP.
I'm only half serious anyway because I don't see Aranda offering him the job & I doubt he would want to go from NFL HC to a college position coach.

Go Bears!
I would take him as OC in a heartbeat
He does strike me as the kind of guy that pays for it.boognish_bear said:

He will either be on an NFL staff or in the booth or away from the game next season. He will not be on a college staff.
Young...good looking...rich...large mansion in the valley...model girlfriend...
One way ticket to Thailand sounds like a plea for help!
That said..it's been quite a world wind turn of events since that Baylor Tech game in 2018 that got Kliff fired for both him and Rhule.

Most likely. I cannot imagine why he would want to return to a college job. He could also retire at a very young age. No doubt he's already a multi-millionaire so he has no compelling financial reason to return to work soon, unless he's also a spendthrift.
yeah, the amount of money chasing a small amount of success is interesting..Stefano DiMera said:

He strikes me as someone that still hasn't tamed his lifestyle enough to know how much he needs to retire.historian said:

Plus, most of these guys are doing it for ego. They see people on the screen and they tell themselves it should be them and they want to compete.
And he's young. Gotta think there is five more years left in the tank easy. Problem is, it's at a pay cut.
The situations where he can be a success get smaller
Money shouldn't be that big of an issue unless he's too proud to rake a pay cut. If he's smart, he has a healthy nest egg for the rest of us life.
He may not pick up Aranda's call right now

I have found theres only two ways to go:
Living fast or dying slow.
I dont want to live forever.
But I will live while I'm here.

You're right, it shouldn't. But apparently his ego is unreal.historian said:

FTR, I'm impressed he chose Thailand, that's a world class sense of adventure.
Think KK could even survive one night in Bangkok?
Probably a better question would be Could We Hire KK. Answer, probably not.jimdue said:

I was thinking exactly the same thing, with added curse wordsStefano DiMera said:
Lord ..do you guys honestly think someone who has been a HC in NFL whether failed or not is gonna take a coordinator position in college.

And that Tommie Frazier was a "winner."
The point isn't whether it will happen or not, the point is what it would take to make it happen,
And that answer for this always the same, great big piles of cash,
It happens.montypython said:I was thinking exactly the same thing, with added curse wordsStefano DiMera said:

Rhule is 4 college losses from being in that category.GoldenBear007 said:
Should we hire someone with a losing record in college and losing record in NFL. Hmm….
We'd have to pay KK $15mm
G J Kinne just hired by Texas State……he is HC but has a great history as an OC at UCF….. great young man …!!
May need to watch as we play 'em first game… should be interesting
