coach?

There are some here, a minority, claiming that he would be a good hire. When hiring a coach from the head coaching ranks their W/L results are usually a huge factor.

Who has this guy beaten as his signature win?

He has played only a handful of P5 programs in his three seasons and has not beaten any, most were double digit losses.

He has not played many decent mid-major teams and has not beaten any of them either.

His schedule has been filled with low-major teams mostly from the NE and upper MW. Playing almost exclusively low-major teams he has averaged 13 losses a season and almost seven in conference.

From my search I would say his signature win is either Coppin St or Wright St because they are both programs you see make the tourney every few years.

This is the guy we are going to hire to lead an SEC program? The first win at Mizzou would likely be his best win ever because we avoid scheduling the teams he has feasted on.
