Yeah, I was going to say this.

Still Cane, I understand where you are coming from. Half the coaches we have seen have an A+ prestige, and that is something that worries me. We should have to preform really well at a school like MTSU to even be considered for a Texas Tech position.

I understand that it was only an OC taking an OC job, but they still were only 3-9 in a weak conference. Unless that was year 8 and TTU had been struggling while MTSU had been doing well until that year, then it has me worried.

it's not that far a job in the game. MTSU is a 1-star, TTU is a 3 star. and it was just an OC job.

TTU's current OC in real life came from Troy FWIW.

Well in real life there are guys like Gus Malzahn who go from high school HC to SEC OC so that jump doesn't seem that for off to me.

It looks like the main reason the MTSU OC was hired to be the TTU OC is because he runs the Air Raid offense. Not saying that makes the situation completely acceptable, I'm just pointing it out.

To be fair to people bashing what that screen shows...the OC from MTSU was part of a 3-9 record and has a C prestige (the fired guy had B+). But at the same time, TTU was 5-7 last year and is only a 3*...maybe they fired their OC, and couldn't find a better one to replace him?

that was my first guess. and Army hired TTU's old OC(after TTU fired him for failing his goals) probably because of his B+ prestige.

This dynamic alone is enough for me this year, personally.
