Urban Meyer (Utah to Florida) would rank at the top.
Who else comes to mind?
Sumlin, Herman, Malzahn, Harbaugh at Stanford
Who am I missing that jumps out?

Kelly Cincy to ND
Tressel if you want to count that
Campbell what he's done at Toledo and ISU is great
Rhule temple to Baylor
Cristobal (although he had a stop gap)
Kiffin as well
Fleck I guess
Petersen

Justin Fuente didn't go so swell.

There’s a lot more than I thought. Even more reasons to hire Napier

Yeah Harbaugh and Tressell both had success jumping directly from FCS to P5.
Fedora made the ACC CG at UNC after he left Southern Miss.
I'd say Campbell has had success at Iowa State from Toledo.
Going back a bit, Randy Walker and Joe Tiller won Big Ten titles jumping from Miami OH and Wyoming respectively.
There aren't many really good ones.

Mack Brown?
ETA; I was beat to it.
Successful is kind of subjective.
ETA#2 Woody Hayes went from Miami Ohio to Ohio St to win 5 Titles

Tressell actually came from FCS to D1 and had serious success at tOSU.
