I liked the guy. He recruited a couple of great players back in the day. But that didn't translate to Texas ball. I'm not sure if that's a geographic thing or has the game passed him by.

Comes down to the assistants he hires. If we get Chizik and Kliff to come with him, this is a great hire.

That's not a big hurdle to overcome considering even Fedora did that once and since 2010 every team in the division but Virginia has won it at least once.

Makes perfect since. He was, to my opinion, the best football coach in the school's modern history. Why not bring him back? They don't really need to win 10 games a season, he can get them at least to 7-5 with some bowl appearances.

Yeah, yeah, I can hear all the "game passed him by" comments. Again, it's North Carolina. Who else wants to come there to coach football? This is a solid hire for that program.

I said that about Les to KU. How much could these old coaches have to offer in a rebuild? The only plus I can see is that no one would look to hire them away if they succeed.

will depend on who he hires as his coordinators

this could be end up being an excellent short term hire

I am a tad worried about the amount of time he has been out of coaching + whether or not the game has passed him by

I mean, they did hire Butch Davis in 2007, the architect of Miami's last national title
