He's held a lot of positions in a short amount of time.


At Bama from 2008-2011 then Colorado St from 2012-2014. That's not bad at all and definitely doesn't indicate he's a bad coach. I actually think he could do a pretty good job at UF.

Also, coaches that are planning on moving up in the ranks don't let themselves get "locked up long term" by schools like Colorado State.

He took Colorado State to 10-2 this season. That's quite an improvement and may be a very positive sign. He certainly has a better resume than Muschamp did, but it's still a bit of a risk. It's not like he turned Colorado State into a nationally recognized program like Urban did in Utah.

So I think it's a much better risk than the hiring of Muschamp, but it certainly doesn't have the 'wow' factor of a Chip Kelly. Which is nice.

Over the past 20 years, he hasn't held a position longer than 4 years...
