I know. That is what is shocking since the UM job you would think would be a good one.
Sometimes there is a guy in the background whose contribution to success is substantial but may not be outwardly noticed - a man named Brady may come to mind.
Translation... every one turned us down that we really wanted or otherwise they would have done it immediately.
Would you think the same if billy Napier was promoted at ASU? Alumni, former players, current players and recruits were all begging for him to be the next head coach at Memphis

The question was inside promotion. I didn't say wrong or right. Memphis dreams big and they boosters thought coaches would beat the door down. The administration went with someone else. Truthfully, no one, repeat no one knew billy would succeed.

How many coaches are guaranteed success at time of hire? 0...the majority of people in and around Memphis said this was the guy...oh by the way, all 4 coaches in the CFB playoff were promoted from within.

You don't understand. I'm not arguing with you. I'm stating this from Memphis administration point of view. I am one that thinks when billy leaves we have a coach on staff to replace him. Sometimes continuity matters.
