In listening to the Drinkall interview, wasn't aware of what a dumpster fire NEK was until turn-around (historical W-L records below). Thatcher was OC when win total accelerated. I believe that great coaches can do two things really well: rebuild and sustain. Why I think Monken is one of the best coaches in college football (and Lance Leipold too). And one reason I have always thought Niumatalolo is over-rated. Heck - I can argue with folks over beers that Bill Snyder > Nick Saban.
Anyways, I like this hire the more I learn about it.
