The only bright spot after '10 is 2014 with Dak. He cost us a possible 8 win season in 2016 by hiring Sirmon who had no business as a college defensive coordinator. Dan did some great things for us but he also hung us out to dry a few times too.
    Wait. Who can forget Hollaway up the middle or QB draw on 3rd and long? He usually started his job search those later years after drawing up in his bama loss and he had us totally unprepared for the EGG against OM a couple of times. I haven't missed him since his late season antics, but JOMO was very tough to take. Loved Leach but his O often bored me to tears. Ready for the Arnett years. Hail State!

    ^^^THIS^^^ If we were looking for a coach, Dan having a wandering eye wouldn't be a problem. We're not giving our virginity to him, just asking him to win football games. The reason he wouldn't work is that he doesn't have the fire anymore. Well, actually, it's the lack of fire and I think NIL and lax transfer rules make his style of coaching untenable going forward.
