per the World Herald:

Every athletic director would love to hire the next Nick Saban. But A.D.s are much more likely to land the next Brady Hoke or Lane Kiffin.

Or Bill Callahan.

That’s according to a World-Herald look at the 146 college football coaches hired by current Power Five schools since 2001.

Of those 146, 65 — less than half — had higher winning percentages in their most recent seasons than their predecessors did. Of those 65, 54 had better records in their most recent seasons than they did in their first.

More coaches (56) have been fired.
