Not exactly. O's the only OM coach since Steve Sloane 30+ years ago to not go to multiple bowls during his tenure. He failed much worse than most even by their lower standards.

Have you ever heard of Coach Gene Stallings?

At Texas A&M
"Texas A&M compiled a record of 27–45–1 in Stallings' seven seasons.[42] However, the Aggies won the Southwest Conference in 1967, Stallings' only winning season at A&M.[43] At the end of that season, A&M beat Alabama in the Cotton Bowl.[43] He was fired at A&M following the 1971 season, but, like his mentor Bryant, would go on to become Alabama's head coach in the 1990s and solidify a Hall of Fame career there."[41]

AT Alabam
In 1992, Stallings' experienced defensive unit led the team to an undefeated regular season and a berth in the first SEC Championship Game where Alabama defeated Florida, 28–21, giving Alabama its 20th Southeastern Conference (SEC) title, and its first outright conference title since 1979.[2] Following a 34–13 victory over heavily favored Miami in the 1993 Sugar Bowl to cap a perfect 13–0 season and the first Bowl Coalition national championship—their first national title since 1979.[5] It was during this early period at Alabama that Stallings coached wide receiver and future Clemson Head Coach, Dabo Swinney.

Stallings' 1992 Alabama team completed a 13–0 season with a win in the Sugar Bowl over Miami and was named the consensus national champion.
In 1993, Stallings' squad won a second straight SEC West Division title, compiling a 9–3–1 record. However, the Tide lost to Florida in the SEC Championship Game. In 1994, Stallings' team finished the regular season with a record of 11–0, an 8–0 record in the SEC, and captured its third straight SEC West Division title. However, they lost the SEC title game for the second year in a row to Florida.[5] Alabama finished the 1994 season with a 12–1 record, including a 24–17 victory over Ohio State in the Citrus Bow
