Sort of a thread hijack but I found this to be interesting:

BurntOrange Nation post on effect of coaching change

Some interesting points from article:

quote:

There have been four ways coaches have left their teams over this time period: firing, voluntarily quitting, retiring and leaving under a cloud of sanctions. 14 programs have won titles over the last 20 years. Of those programs, only Texas, Oklahoma and Auburn have not had at least one coaching change, though a firing at Auburn seems to be a foregone conclusion at this point.


quote:

LSU (2003, 2007) - The Tigers have but a single 1-loss season since Les Miles arrived in 2005 though they do have a 2-loss national championship and a pair of SEC titles. We'll call Miles to LSU the gold standard of replacing a departing legend.


And I disagree with the final thought:
quote:

At 8-2 this year and a lineup built for a big year in 2013, we hope Mack gets one more shot at a title next year before riding off into the burnt orange sunset

HMMMM...

The last sentence sounds really similar to what i heard before the season started this year. And we know how that turned out. Another OU buttfricking, and another loss to the wizard..
