Name one G5 Coach go on to have success at the P5 level especially at a blue blood program like Florida

Seriously? Brian Kelly is the first I thought of. Central Michigan and Cincinnati (the Big East was basically G5 at that point) to Notre Dame. You don’t get much more blue blood than that.

Urban Meyer is obvious. Norvell is certainly on the path. Same for Kiffen with 2 NY6 appearances at OM. Malzahn isn’t glamorous, but he’s beaten Bama and made a title game appearance. Matt Campbell is also still out there getting it done at ISU. Several of these aren’t blue bloods, but they show there are plenty of G5 coaches who do succeed. And there are others like Dave Doeren and Row the Boat who are good enough to keep the fans at their schools happy.
