I mean he did a good job at Penn State in the brief time he was there. 8-4 and 7-5 when they were going through the sanctions and pedo stuff

No he didn't. I talked about this on here when Bama hired him. With the talent Penn State has relative to the rest of the Big Ten, a 7-5 season is like going 3-9 in the SEC. They were losing games to teams like Ohio. They still had way more talent than almost every team they played, even with sanctions. The coach of the year award was based on the assumption that he fell on the sword by taking a top tier job for millions of dollars. That's a retarded take from sports journalists who always do this - they just did it with the Bama job too, but somehow Bama found someone courageous enough to make the sacrifice of making $10 million annually.
