The Cowboys’ unique coaching pipeline

Most of us are realistic enough to know that we never had a chance of being an NFL football player. But a lot of us think we may have some Mike Leach in us, and could be a coach. After all, we spend most games shouting the plays that should have been called at our TVs. And of course, if you are reading this, your dream job would no doubt be on the staff of the Dallas Cowboys.

Well, I hate to be the one to burst your bubble, but it turns out that if you really want a job coaching for Jerry Jones, the best path is that really hard one: Be a former Dallas player.
