Head coaching record

Key is success as an OC at a big time program or at the pro level. I would also take HC at a very successful smaller program. That is attainable. Coach Reid is not attainable.

Once Herman was successful at Houston he was over our heads. We have to find them before that. But he was probably attainable as an Ohio St OC. For sure as an Iowa St OC.

Sitake was a bad choice for a lot of reasons, tho the main one is that at any level, he had never been successful on his own. Neither has Grimes. Neither did Detmer. Neither did Doman. Anae I would argue did and would’ve been a far better choice.

We have options. We just don’t have the options Texas does.
