You realize we learned the hard way about hiring a 'forever' coach.

Scelfo was hired because the President didn't want to replace RichRod after two years (it was pretty much known that he was going to West Virginia opened up).

Bob Toledo was hired because of his past success and they felt his age would keep him from jumping to a bigger job.

Curtis Johnson was hired because the school thought he could recruit at a top level (for us at least) and that since he was a home town guy he would stay long term. Johnson was handcuffed a little because he was kind of forced to hire Price as his OC. However Johnson was a terrible coach overall. He didn't discipline guys and would also favor playing local kids over out of state kids because he didn't want to 'hurt' recruiting locally.
