Rhoades doesn't seem like the type of AD that will settle for mediocrity after firing Tony Levine even though Levine had an overall winning record (21-17) and conference record (14-10) plus winning two bowl games. Before leaving for Missouri many forget Rhoades hired Tom Herman (Ohio State offensive corrdinator) to take over the program. Houston has started the season 4-0 with wins @Louisville and Tulsa. Houston could be a sleeper team to watch out for the rest of the season.

Yea he did it with the other guys recruits too though, like when Sumlin came in and won some games with mostly Shermans kids, I don't disagree with the point though.
There is a limit to how much hyperbole and euphemism you can put up with from declaring X number of "bowl seasons" as some major accomplishment or calling a cotton bowl win a "championship", that's fine to tell to kids that you are recruiting but trying to constantly blow that snow by fans that know up from down,, what few of us there are, not gonna work.

It may also be worth noting that Ohio State is struggling on offense so far this season, and Cardale Jones doesn't seem to be the same QB without Herman calling the plays. Houston is getting over 300 yards per game rushing and averaging 45 points per game in 2015. Comparing those numbers to last year when Houston was averaging only 29 points per game and 189 yds rushing per game it would seem his play calling has improved Houston's offense significantly. Also one of Herman's calling cards is his ability to recruit well, perhaps Herman could be a candidate when Pinkle decides to step down in a few years provided he doesn't get snagged by someone else before that time.

His ability to hire a decent basketball coach scares me, given we could be needing one very soon, and another bad hire could kill what is left of our basketball program.

Baker was brought in to make sure the BBall program gets turned around.
Pington just signed an extension for what she has done with the womens program.
