4 10 wins seasons in 11 years, only one losing season
and 5 loss seasons in about half of them too. It also deserves mentioning 2 of those 10 win seasons were at FAU. His record at p5 schools isn't anything crazy good. He's 58-34 with a conference record of 35-27. So he's basically been about an 8-5 type of coach with a conference record hovering around .500. I wouldn't call that bad, but I think the OP's question of why people call him a good coach is somewhat valid. I certainly don't think he's as good as his salary would suggest
To me, he's great at developing QB and has a good offensive mind, but his decision making as a HC, his overall recruiting, and fielding a good defense leave a lot to be desired.

Kiffin is considered a good coach because he’s an elite offensive mind.
He’s taken Ole Miss teams with average talent and has had Ole Miss ranked in the top 10 in consecutive seasons.
I think if he can continue adding talent and let Golding handle the defense, he will have Ole Miss consistently competing for playoff spots in a 12 team playoff.
That’s pretty fricking good for Ole Miss. There are 100+ other college football programs that would kill for that.
