His defensive line coach is very good, has been with him since Idaho. Strong on fundamental teaching, good recruiter. Bring him.

Is there a world where the winner won’t be Kong?

I have seen so many posts about needing coaches with Big Ten experience or P5 experience...none of which Cignetti had. I guarantee there would have been a lot of people not happy if he was out hire originally. That's the only point I'm trying to make. People have these weird boxes that they need to have checked (I can fall into this too). But, as you pointed out, Cignetti's resume was pretty solid in reality.

You’re not wrong.

What’s obvious is folks who want to dislike a candidate or hire, immediately glom onto any scab they think they can pick on.

Too young, too old, too inexperienced, wrong kind of experience.

Conversely, we have a much smaller group who’ll polish a turd no matter what and rationalize.

We’re really just freaking insane.

Cignetti didn't lack experience. My fucking goodness people, quit recreating history to fit a narrative.

6 or 7 years at NC State; Phillip Rivers & Russell Wilson ring a bell?

5 seasons (+/-) at Alabama under Nick Saban, WR coach and as recruiting coordinator.

13 years as a head coach. Multiple playoff appearances, including 2 semi-finals and a title game appearance. Transitioned JMU from FCS to FBS and in year 2 they won 10+ games. Finished ranked in 10 of 13 seasons.

Cignetti had winner written all over him.

The post you responded to was correct in that some would absolutely have poked holes.

“Guy has been around forever and nobody gives him a D1 shot, but we do?”

I’m not saying that’s the right take, I’m saying you’d have absolutely heard that.

“JMU? Seriously? Now we’re an FBS training program?”

I can see it now.
