1 season out of 10 (power 5 conference) with more than 10 wins? You putting all your eggs in that basket ? Lol
His 1st season as a head coach, period, came as the man to lead a sanctioned Miami program. The sanctions were so bad, it was considered a step below the death penalty.
To go 8-5 including 1 - 1 against the AP top 25 and 6-1 in the Big East in his first year w/ a depleted roster is nothing short of extraordinary.
To go 3-0 in the bowl games w/ a depleted roster is nothing short of amazing
To load up a roster full of future HOF talent is nothing short of aw-inspiring since no coach, not even Saban himself can claim what Butch built here.
To lead the CLEVELAND BROWNS to their last playoff spot is nothing short of a miracle.
To make the University of North Carolina a relevant football program since they are nothing more than a basket ball factory is impressive, in itself.
And to take a chit stain program in FIU and lead them to the most victories they've ever had (tied) in their school's history in only year one shows that dude can still coach.
Context is everything.
If Butch came to us w/ head coaching experience, w/ what you posted, I would say what a chitty coach. Even back in the day, I thought he was a chitty coach, UNTIL, I truly understood what he actually inherited.
Go back and re-visit what he inherited here at Miami in the mid-90's.
Go check out and see what he inherited at UNC from John Bunting.
Go to look up what type of football program FIU is and what he inherited.
Again, Context.
Also, I'm pretty sure he mopped us w/ that dog chit UNC team 3 out of the 4 years he was there, including a 3 game winning streak.
