You can loosely use the term to mean someone returning, but it isn't the proper use of the term. On the field? Fail? No. In convincing the University that he should be retained, yeah, I'd say he failed at that. We can use whatever term you feel comfortable with, vis-a-vis re-hiring a coach who was dismissed or left the job. Just lemme know what term you want to use, and I'll use that going forward: https://www.tampabay.com/sports/bulls/2019/12/02/greg-schiano-is-going-back-to-rutgers-how-do-retreads-fare-in-act-ii/ https://www.tampabay.com/sports/bulls/2019/12/06/usf-football-coaching-search-our-bracket-is-complete/ https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/do-retread-coaches-like-jon-gruden-ever-work-out/ https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2814555-nfl-rumors-latest-buzz-surrounding-top-2019-head-coach-candidates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
