He has experience. He has it at the lower level where he has to be a "coach" not just a CEO/recruiter
and he turned WKU around in a big way.
He turned USF around...made them an excellent mid-range team that could be competitive vs anybody
and he recruited well there. He got them more 4-star and 3-star players over a 4-year period of
time than 6 Big10 schools, 6 ACC schools, 4 Pac12 schools and 3 Big 12 schools.
At Oregon he started 6-1 until his QB went down. He'll have more than 1 QB at FSU.
We're happy.
He does? The one year at Oregon and 2 years as a RB at Stanford? Or are you saying his experience coaching at WKU or South Florida? Because you mentioned USF, but if having a best win of Navy in 3 years means you can play with anyone, then you should be ecstatic.
And it is impressive to start 6-1 at Oregon, if that were actually true. He started 3-0 with big wins over Southern Utah and Wyoming, with a big OOC win over 4-8 Nebraska 45-38 (think that was the score?)
They then lost 4 of their next 5, getting blown out by the only teams with a heartbeat on their schedule.
And excuse me if myself, and others, chuckle when you say FSU won’t have only one QB. You do realize, that is the excuse you are using for him at Oregon and the exact same excuse FSU used for a 6-6 season this year.
But hey, if he is the type of coach you think FSU should hire — congrats. I expected more, but maybe FSU didn’t want to have a Tennessee situation, so they went for the sure thing.
