If we are going to include all 20 years he's been a head coach, then you will also have to acknowledge his 2 national titles at Grand Valley State in that time frame. He's won every where he's been. That's generally a sign someone is a pretty good coach.


I'm not knocking winning a D-2 national title. But winning a D-2 national championship 20 years ago...isn't really a top tier accomplishment is it. Paul Johnson won two D1-AA championships at Ga Southern. It doesn't translate to success at a power5.

He took Tech to multiple BCS Bowls, won his division 4 times, won his conference, and won a lot of football games at a school who couldn’t care less about the team. I’d call him a great coach

Seemingly did for him, for Jim Tressel too. Success doesn’t necessarily translate from P5 to P5 either. Kelly has been successful at 4 different places. I’d say that’s pretty good for any coach

If he was the HC at UGA he might have a much better chance.
