It doesn’t make it easy looking for a good coach when most that are looking for job has bad records. Sometimes you just need to put some perspective on those records. A lot of guys have to take a bad job when they want to get their foot in the door. If it was a "good" job then they wouldn't be considered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t make it easy looking for a good coach when most that are looking for job has bad records. Your school has to have some Johnny's and Joe's for a head coach to be good year in and year out. Coaches can't turn 5 flat 40's into 4.5's, and etc. Thus, a head coach getting experience as a head coach at a not so good program, doesn't mean he will always have a bad record, or will not be a successful coach. Example: I remember a coach a few years back that had only won 2-3 games a season. Then took a DC job down the road at a winning program. That head coach left and said DC was hired as head coach, they went 7-5 the next year. Remember, it's not always the coach! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of schools would rather hire a HC with a bad record because he has experience than give a coordinator their shot. And bad records snowball as the jump from losing school to losing school. On the other side Winning/losing season isn't always the best indicator of if a coach is maxing out talent or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
