We agree on something. Ryans should be on that list, and given serious consideration.

not really surprising statement...

Default Head Coach - what qualities do they need to have?

I think ability to manage people, to communicate freely with the GM, owner. But also to be able to communicate with the other coaches, players and media.

A head coach no longer needs to be able to 'coach', they need to manage. Making the right decisions regards players when they make mistakes, sorting out the in game decisions.

Needs to have connections with coaches who are proven to be excellent coaches, and can get the best out of their players.

A head coach will only succeed in my opinion with a good scouting department, you can have the greatest coaches, who get the best out of their abilities, but you need to have high quality players to begin with, who you can then maximize their talents.

This is 100% correct.

A good HC has a vision but hires the right OC and DC to execute that and let's them do their job. The HC is the CEO, they manage the operations and make the high level decisions.

I think, that this is the most important point. Who's your OC gonna be. Who do you like at DC. What do you think of Gus, Reggie and Bubba and why? How do you envision yourself running this team?
