A good idea? Examples of where it worked out really well?
Coach O and jimbo won an NC at FSU and LSU because they struck lightening in a bottle on 1 game changing QB. They both fizzled out and were exposed eventually.
Ryan Day and Dabo (circa 2015-18)I guess are the best consistent winners.

They fizzled out??
One left for another job, the other was fired
Gotta understand what fizzled out means I guess...
Dabo is fizzling out...

Within the last 18 years there have been 5 national championships won by coaches that were promoted from within. Dabo at Clemson has 2, Jimbo at FSU, Coach O at LSU and Ryan Day at Ohio State.
So yeah, it’s pretty common for it to be a good move.

~28% isn’t “pretty common” even with your biased sample size!

If winning a NC isn't working out well, I don't know what is.

Certainly not in Oxford.
Better choice would have been blow it all up and hire a janitor.

If it doesn’t work out then we will go get another coach. What the frick does a child like you care? LSU spent a fortune on this team. Lane’s buddy Dabo got left behind because he doesn’t believe in buying football teams.
So now he has no talent. I’d be surprised if Clemson has a winning season. This is the hill the moron decided to die on.

See 2024 Texas A&M baseball.
Successful coach led them to new heights then left for a hated rival.
Young assistant was promoted to keep the team together.
A lot of talent stayed and rallied around one another.

Bruh you got the only coach you could convince. That’s ole miss SOP. Absolutely no one with better prospects would even consider that shite hole racist diploma mill. You struck gold with Kiffin on his career rebuild. Thank you for showing us that he’s good enough to win, against all odds and broke dick financial support.
That’s the first time in your trash arse program’s history they won anything of substance.

I wouldn’t call this promoting from within.
Jumbo was brought in as Head Coach in waiting. FSU was trying to get Bobby Bowden to retire but he didn’t want to. Bowden was FSU it would have been like Alabama trying to fire Nick Saban.

Clemson, Ohio State, Florida State, and LSU have done it, but Ole Miss is none of these.

At the time when Coach O was brought in I thought they were bringing him in to be the interim coach for when they fired Les Miles.
Miles had been on and off the hot seat and I was always under the impression they were looking for the best spot to can him. They wiffed at one point and Miles was brought back.
They finally fired him, but O was such a media sensation and won some games that they hired him after their target coach (Jumbo?) backed out.

And before 2020, there was Tom Osborne and Joe Paterno. Both were promoted from assistant positions and won nattys.

So, if Georgia had not hired Kirby Smart, you don't think he would have been a good hire for Alabama?

Paterno got into coaching to pay for law school. Weird how things work out.

Marcus Freeman was promoted from within and so far seems like an upgrade to Brian Kelly
