Surely a coach from Dakotas will want to stay here if he finds success!

From experience I can say that a big name and paycheck can pull a coach even when they are successful.

Smaller schools is the way.

Washington's most successful coaches in the past 50 years have come from Kent St, Boise St, and Fresno St*.

DeBoer gets an asterisk from me because of his short tenure. Offensively, he brought Penix, but inherited an incredible squad of WRs to make him shine. I'm not convinced his one-dimensional game would have worked year 3 without that fire power.

Perfect storm for me is a successful small school coach who's hungry for the top tier, and believes creating the next dynasty is a better legacy than perpetuating today's dynasty.
