3. Caldwell on the Hot Seat
Head coach Jim Caldwell is in a make or break year. With only one more year left on his contract after the 2016 season, the Lions can choose to part ways with the players’ coach if he doesn’t meet expectations.
Many people, fans and journalists alike, think 2016 is playoffs or bust for Caldwell. The even keeled coach has assembled a pretty good surrounding cast that includes DC Teryl Austin and OC Jim Bob Cooter. In addition to the coordinators, the staff also boasts Alan Williams, Bill Sheridan, Ron Prince and Randy Edsall. That’s a ton of football experience.
