Reread your post and the tone is definitely belittling his accomplishments especially when applied to a support staff role. With the state of the program right now, hiring a former mid major HC with 6 winning seasons of experience is a pretty good accomplishment. I still don't understand why you say it is just a special assistant when creating that job is nothing but positive. If he does anything to help the team it will be an improvement over not having that position.

I get what you're saying. I think. You're more talking about the position period, regardless of who filled, as being a sign that the AD is willing to back/support the program. That I agree with 100%. As for Shields credentials..sorry...doesn't move the needle one bit. The position and support that is shown though is a bigger deal than who fills that position in the light I understand you to be talking about.
