Grading the coaching hires 3 years later

[sfcane2]

2022 was a pretty momentous year for coaching turnover at big programs. After 3 years we can somewhat see the trajectory of the programs.

A+ Lanning, Lashlee
A Freeman, Deboer and Elko. Only 2 years so A instead of A+
A- Mario 10-2 is still 10-2 and he inherited a poor situation

B Sunbelt Billy- is definitely trending up
B- Sonny Dykes- trending down but a championship appearance is worth something

C Tony Elliot and Brent Pry
C- Lincoln Reilly- lot of close losses like Texas year 2 but isn’t recruiting well

F Brian Kelly and Venables. Probably done in 1-2 years.

Majority of them only watch UM. They haven’t seen good football in 2 decades so this is all they know. Take it easy on them.

I was referring to the hires 3 years ago. Deboer and Elko both did phenomenal jobs at UW and Duke. Deboer took them to the NC game. That deserves an A. He beat Lanning 3 times also in 2 years.

What they did at different schools counts for their grades today? I guess if we’re giving away lifetime achievement awards.

Being objective Mario gets a B-. When you have to fire half your coaches for the 2nd time, before year 4 it’s a problem. I don’t see any scenario where we return 6 or more coaches on this staff. Likely we have 5 return and 5 new.
