obviously. he has a MAC talent pool and MAC resources. just like the rest of the MAC. Brady Hoke was in the MAC too. he took Ball State from 4-8 to 12-1. heres what he did a Michigan...


oh, we use Hoke to present the case for failure. However, We don't use Urban Meyer or Saban to present the case for success.

Yeah, lets never hire a mac coach so we will never have a saban or meyer

Ara Parseghian, Woody Hayes, Bo Schembechler

All were MAC coaches. All were hired straight from the MAC to Power 5 jobs. All did pretty well.

Woody was 37
Ara was 32
Bo was 38

I agree with the point of your post, but feel the need to highlight that both Saban and Meyer went on to bigger programs before getting a prime time job.

And with Saban you could effectively argue he did it twice, as LSU was not prime time when he got there.

Are there any more recent examples of coaches that went straight from the MAC to a big time conference?
