I'm sure it's a hefty pay raise but unless they start cheating or absolutely buying players he's settled for a perennial 6-6 (at best) team. I will never see the money a coach like him gets but wow did he take the first offer that came along?

Indiana has had 3 winning seasons this century. Their last was 2020 when they went 6-2. In 2019 they were 8-5. Their last three years in the Big 10 they are 3-24.

Exactly. The guy did great and put JMU in the rankings and on the map. Can't believe this is his dream destination.

Maybe he's a fan of the movie Hoosiers and has measured the football field.

At least the expectations should be reasonable, unlike some SEC schools and others that are ready to fire the coach if the team is not a top four within a few years.
