The Bisons won the IL title in 2004 and made the playoffs in 2005 and 2021.
But my point is that making the playoffs and winning titles in the minor leagues has more to do with your parent clubs than local management. After all, if you're any good, you move up during the season.
You aren't getting multi-star recruits. The trick in the MAC is to develop players. That's what makes coaching so important. Mo wasn't just in over his head, he was at the bottom of pool.
He had a .600 winning pct at Ball State, making him #2 of all Cardinals coaches. Right now I'd be fine with 6-7 wins. I don't think we're ever going to sniff the Top 25 ever again without an NIL program.
Wow, if this is true.... What head coach takes a coaching assistant position, even at an blue blood program?? So here we go again, looking to replace a head football coach late in the offseason.
