*He's probably worked with over 100 coaches during his career and has a pool of 50 or more assistants who have coached under him. He probably has a really good idea of who he wants on his staff and who the best coaches are from experience.
*His offenses and defenses are good and he's done that with different coordinators so it's not like the magic is with one coordinator the loss of whom would sink his program. (Can you spell Kalen Deboer)
*He coached under two of the best ever in Johnny Majors and Nick Saban for a total of 11 years.
*He's won at JMU with FBS talent against group 5 talent. That's like Indiana beating Michigan three or four times in a season.
*In one year he took JMU from having the worst recruiting class in the Sunbelt to the third best.
*He's been the recruiting coordinator at every school he's been an assistant at. Clearly an elite recruiter.
He really checks all the boxes with the only down size being age. But he's probably got a least three energetic years left and maybe as many as five or six. If a coach is really good, they would likely leave after a few year anyway, so five years would be a win.
