The assumption that a "caretaker" from the outside is willing to take a one year deal is an uneducated one. Any guy that comes to Arkansas will demand a 5 year deal and in Gruden's case it may take a 10 year deal.


Any coach that's worth anything is also going to demand that they have their own staff. Any coach that takes a job that requires him to retain the current staff is Weak and will implode in due time.

You need a strong leader that demands that things are run his way. I can't imagine for one second a good coach like Saban letting anyone tell him who's going to be on his staff.

Only two holdovers at Penn State (larry johnson sr. & ron vanderlinden both great recruiter)

Replacing Tom Bradley (the dc an alum with 33 years on staff) who refused to return unless it was as the boss is Ted Roof.

Roof coincedentialy was the best man at O'Brien's wedding when they both were on O'Leary's staff @ Tech.

Roof's performance or lack thereof at Auburn was not enough to negate his hiring.Point being a new boss wants guys he knows and trusts working for him.
