Mike Shanahan's 28 year old son Kyle has been named the Texans' new offensive coordinator making him the youngest coordinator ever.

He's younger than like half the roster

[The Legend]

smart move hes gonna be good

[Kurve]

looks like a new trend in the nfl owners are tired of the same old washed up names and look for new and innovating coaches which is a good sign for the league.

[fenikz]

wow, what's his prior coaching experience?

[BlindSite]

He might have good ideas, but there's still a lot of experience he hasn't got.

[SuperKevin]

wow, what's his prior coaching experience?

2 years coaching QBs for the Texans or something like that

[JT Jag]

wow, what's his prior coaching experience?Reading his dad's extra copy of his playbook when he doesn't have anything else to read?

"lol, z-right slam gap 3 on 4, that's a great one"

[comahan]

wow, what's his prior coaching experience?

04/05 - Buccaneers Offensive Quality Control

05/06 - Texans Wide Receiver Coach

06/07 - Texans Quarterback Coach

Does anybody really think he'll be the one running the offense anyway? Just a hunch, but I'd imagine Kubiak and now Alex Gibbs will both have more "say" than Baby Kevlar.

Yea, Kubiak calls the plays and what not.

[fenikz]

Well he is in a great situation either way, under two guys who know how to win

[diabsoule]

Great situation for him. Kubiak knows what he's doing down there and is really building a contender.

Yeah, but if they go 13-3 next year, K-Shan shouldn't be a head coach. Just a reminder for you one-yr. wonder freaks out there.

[bored of education]

Good move by the Texans.

Good point, but K-Shan ?
