Evidently you equate good coaching with program development….
I do not think they are synonymous or one in the same. My definition of Building a Program is when a Head Coach has had sustained success at the same school thru at least 3 full recruiting classes – 6 consecutive years.
Shaw has done this at Stanford.
Fisher has done this at FSU
Saban has done this at Bama
Swiney has done this at Clemson
& others Bo & Carr at Michigan on & on
Pat Fizgerald at Northwestern and Kirk Ferentz at Iowa have fulfilled the time requirements but not the sustained success requirement; there are even coaches out there who have won National Championships that do not fit my definition of a Builder of a Program because they did not have at least a 6 year sustainment of it and in some cases they were found to have cheated……
Harbaugh has yet to do any of this anywhere – he’s only 1/3 there at Michigan. School is still out on him.
So good coach – proven; in fact great coach
Program Developer (Building a Program) hasn’t yet happened;.
IMHO……….INTJohn
