It's an interesting premise. A bit along the lines of CCU hiring Moglia to coach football. I can't imagine a Premier League team would ever do something like this, but from a real word standpoint, a lot of the characteristics of a great HC have nothing to do with Xs and Os. Things like organization, motivation, creativity and leadership can translate to any sport. The other part is important of course, but an organizer can hire the right assistants to handle that.
A close-to-home example............. I don't think Hugh Freeze will ever be mistaken for a basketball genius, but he coached the girls basketball team at Briarcrest Christian to 4 TN state championships and 3 other finals appearances.
