    Will there ever be a female coach?

    I dont think so, atleast not for awhile. I dont think the atmosphere in the locker room would gel good between the players and the coach, and respect would certainly factor in.

    I think this is a good debate though...And I dont mean this to be a sexist remark at all.

    Thoughts?

        Since a good majority of NFL coaches had some sort of playing experience in the NFL or at least, college, I'd be inclined to say no. Unless you count Kathy Ireland as the kicker in "Necessary Roughness," I don't know of any women to even play football on the college level.

        P.S. Just because I said I don't know of any, doesn't mean there hasn't been, but, I'm sure the media would be all over it if there were.

          No there wont, theyll be a female president of the U.S long before there is a female coach. If there ever is a female coach i hope she's hot.

                Don't the players get enough verbal abuse?

                  I agree with most of you about it not happening, but it's an interesting thing to think about.

                  BL, the media would be all over it...And it wouldn't be what's best for the team. Unless she was a VERY good coach, I could never see this happening, even if she is that good, it probably still wouldn't happen. PMS wouldn't be good either.

                    Never will that happen, as long as all the players are men. I'll bet a woman president will come before a woman head coach.

                      I think you will get a woman player before you get a woman coach

                      Maybe a strength and conditioning type coach- but that's it...

                        I think they are more likely to create a female league before a woman plays in the NFL. Now that would be funny.

                              There is nothing in place to set the stage for a female coach: no pool of former female players, no serious consideration to have female players in the future, as far as I'm aware there are no female coaches of high school football, and certainly none who are likely to move up through college into the pros. There will be no female coaches in the pros or in division 1 A college ranks in my lifetime, and probably a lot longer than that. I expect to hang around for at least another quarter century or more.
                              I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                              I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
