Success stories in G5 ranks that took a decade to build?

[ragtimejoe1]

I forgot, your Art Briles example technically fits in my list.

However, I am hoping that Briles' pattern is one that Bohl is following (only Bohl didn't get 7 wins in his first year). The next year Briles only won 3 (extreme down year), then 6, then 10 (I think).

I believe through my tired and hurried week last week I accepted your own "criteria" as okay to use. I'm going to have to look back at that "criteria" and see how I can twist it and dwindle your results to nil before I accept it as okay.

... but show me a coach at a G5 school that went from 4-8 to 0-12 in his 2nd year and then became successful....

Not Craig Bohl

Yeah glad that didn't come to pass. Think we may win a game or two more as well.

More criteria or excuses? What I put in were clearly reasonable. G5, modern football, and a true winning season.

You could just admit I'm right. Most (barring a couple of outliers) successful G5 coaches will find success within 4 years.

Bohl, I think, is going to have 7 wins either next year or the year after anyway.

Well if that's the case why did you create this thread???

If you recall, we were discussing timelines on rebuilds. You claim we fire people too early and that 6+ years is necessary. I claim 4 years at the G5 ranks is sufficient time to get an indication of where things are going.

You can admit I'm right; it is okay--just like FCS equaling half or more of FBS :rofl:
