They probably need 20 years of the type of seasoning we have had to reach our current level of expectations.

Fair.

This is a great start though, IMO.

Every hire gets 2 grades from me. How it looks when it happened and how it turned out. I'd give them a solid B+ here on the 1st which is way higher than it was looking

You’re more generous than me. More like a C or C- and I fully expect him to be fired in 3-4 years. JMO

The best thing Matt Campbell did was retaining Terry Smith.

Campbell is a decent coach who benefitted from garbage time in the Big12.

I can see him hovering around 60% winning percentage at PSU, which will get him fired.
