To be fair, Rivers was a HC on the high school level at St.Micheal Catholic in Fairhope, AL for 5 years(21-25) and compiled a 44-16 record and going to the semifinals his last two years.

But coaching at the college level, especially now with NIL and all of the BS that comes with it, is a completely different animal.

The irony here is that just last weekend NC State beat Cal by three touchdowns. Cal hired an alum with no head coaching experience. Cal has been torched in its last three games 131-37. Cal fans are in shock that they could make such a terrible hire. Tosh Lupoi, with many years of (non-HC) coaching experience with several great teams, could only manage to hire an OC and DC, neither of whom had ever held that position. The OC had to be replaced by the 3rd game. These ex-players interviewing for the NC State gig, what kind of connections do they have to great coaches that would be willing to work for these neophytes?

Definitely heading towards hiring coaches for NIL purposes. Coaching is getting watered down in this sport and it shows with all the chaos happening.
