Yes, Jerry would offer. Would Riley take him up on it?

Would second year head coach Lincoln Riley accept the job as the leader of the Dallas Cowboys if offered by owner Jerry Jones?

 

As of Sports Illustrated writer Alan Breer, the Cowboy job might be the one NFL job he would consider, if not take.

 

Riley to the Cowboys is a real possibility as of Breer.  It is the only possibility should the up-and-coming coach Riley bolt the college ranks for the pros.  Jones would hire someone like Riley if he wants to make a move.  He would consider Riley family and someone to take the team into the future.  Make no doubt about it, Jerry Jones will offer the Sooner head man the job when and if he disposes of Jason Garrett.

“I think every team that has an opening will call Lincoln Riley, who really likes the job he’s got at Oklahoma. My feeling is that the Cowboys would probably be the one team, as a native Texan, that Riley would have a hard time saying no to. And if Dallas makes a change, it’s worth mentioning that the Jones family does have a relationship with Riley, who recruited Jerry’s grandson.”
