Are you disagreeing that there are destination jobs and non destination jobs?


I'm saying the description is fluid. And no fan-base can ever be so confident that "my team will always win" or, if the stars align, so defeated that "my team will never win".

James Franklin is only at Penn State because of Joe Paterno. Who was a shite in my book. But without a doubt ... he raised a cow college to "destination job".

The label is not permanent. It's not like you gain "destination job" status and suddenly get extra recruiting visits. Nor are you on some "outside club" without "destination job" status.

Who in their right minds want to go to Nebraska now ? Former "destination job". Anybody want to follow up at Michigan ?

Neither Nebraska nor Michigan seemed to have any trouble hiring a coach during their last search so your "point" doesn't really make sense.

Certain schools have the resources to recruit elite athletes and win big and certain ones don't.

It's just the way it is.

There are two types of destination jobs. Those that are the final destination to the coach and those that the program is in such a place that no coach would want to leave, with exception to the NFL.

Both Nebraska and Michigan were destination jobs for Frost and Harbaugh. Alabama, Ohio State, USC etc are all jobs that once a coach gets there, they are not leaving.

Ole Miss does not strike me as Lane's destination. He will move on to bigger and better. Maybe the NFL or maybe a bigger school.
