This man ruined the headcoaching careers of Gene Chizik and Bebby Petrino. He is responsible for 2012 Auburn, 2016 Notre Dame AND 2018 Louisville. That is an impressive level of incompetence

He's been a part of some spectacular meltdowns. Any coach hiring him has a deathwish.

Reminds me of Gary Crowton. A lot of Bama fans wanted to steal him from LSU in 2008. Now he's coaching at some high school.

Amazing how some of these guys burn out.

I remember when Crowton was the HC at BYU

He started 12-0 then went 14-23 the rest of his tenure
