I really hate how people make such a big deal about coaching and their ability to win games. The truth is this, Coaches loss games, they rarely win them. I don't care who the coach is, more talent is going to win over less talent. Jay Cutler stinks, but his coach Lovie Smith is on the hotseat. Andy Reid is often criticized for his coaching, but he's not on the field making plays.
I do dislike the coach who thinks he is better than he actually is. A College Coach's job is to recruit the best players he can. I am convinced this is why Bobby Bowden has been at FSU for so long.
Finally, if you are going to be a fat coach, you better win consistently or you will be out. The world is prejudice against Fat People and it's not any better for Fat Coaches. Charlie Weis had 5 years to make Notre Dame matter again and he failed, not because he couldn't coach, but because the best players were going to Florida & USC. Mark Mangino being a tough coach won't get him fired, but a losing season in Kansas will.
