CO, you're starting to sound like those ESPN people. No great jobs are vacant when they are winning 10&11 games a year. Remember when Kelly took over at ND??..ESPN was saying he's making a huge mistake, the program is in shambles, they can't recruit locally blah blah blah. Now, ND's back in the conversation. Charlie Strong was not the right coach to turn UT around, he is looking for a ready made team to take over without a lot of elbow grease. A job like UT's needs a coach willing to roll his sleeves up recruit his arse off. In other words we needed a workaholic and Hart didn't go after any coach's that were really wanting to bust their arse (until he contacted Jones).
Tom Osborne left Nebraska in good shape. Jim Tressel left a decent team for Meyer to eventually pick up. Spurrier left Florida near the top. Johnny Majors left Pitt after a NC. It does happen for a variety of reasons.
