He fits our apparent criteria...he is under .500 for his career. He is worse in the conference.
But somehow he would magically take the Gophers to a Big Ten title and a national championship.
Can't we either hire a proven guy, a coach who has won at the college level or pro level or everywhere for his career. Someone with a track record of winning. Or if that somehow isn't possible (but Leach, Bellotti and even Trestman fit that standard) then a wiz kid who hasn't proven mediocrity but has had some success, like a Mullen.
