I don’t have a problem with us rewarding the guy who kept the recruiting class intact. Especially if Schmidt surrounds him with a solid offensive staff.
It depends on how a coach does things and what they inherit.
Troy Taylor turned around Sac State instantly, but it took a few years for Jay Hill to turnaround Weber. Both great coaches though.
This guy followed Schmidt from Washington to SDSU and is from Michigan. Wonder if he has any interest in coming back to the Midwest.
