I saw him on a list of about 14 potential candidate. He did a admirable job at Vanderbilt and I thought at the time Vandy should have just written him a check in any amount to keep him.
Do better research
Maybe no coach with Vandy could beat us at that time? We did have about a 30 yr streak
As a guy who watches a lot of Big Ten football, you don't want him. He's recruited very well until falling way off last cycle, but prior cycles were also pointing in that direction. Got zero of the top 10 PA recruits in 2021 cycle. PA #1, #4, and #5 went to OSU, #2 went to LSU (and it was a battle with OSU, not PSU). #1 PA recruit (#1 WR National) in 2020 class went to OSU not PSU. Can't recruit QBs either. There's something up with the culture in that program. He's also a really bad game manager. You can do better than James Franklin. But it's going to take a Matt Rhule contract.
They could have hired Kiffin or Chadwell this time. At least Chadwell has built programs. Heupel has only ridden in what Frost had at UCF. Like butch did Kelly. And why hire a search firm if White is going to promote his little buddy?
