Why not Jim McElwain or Doc Holliday?

Both won national championships and were terrific recruiters as assistants, and then became head coaches at lower-tier colleges and completely turned it around. Both have done fantastic jobs this season and should be looked at.

I could be wrong but I think a lot of Marshall fans were unhappy with Doc heading into this season. They did make it to the CUSA title game so his situation may have improved.

Jim McElwain did have a stint as an assistant at Louisville. But I think he's pretty committed to building Colorado State. He could have them at the top of the Mountain West soon.

Not enough years or not enough consistent years to determine if they are flukes.

You get some breaks with it being a smaller school, but you have to show an upward trend. They both replicate their records or improve from this past season, they'll certainly get more talk.

Moo U fans wanted to fire Doc before the season started and he will only has a 27-24 record as a head coach. He also cost his team a victory at VT this season with several coaching blunders.
