And therein lies the rub.I think the qualifications of a successful coach are quantifiable. Past results are usually indicative of future results. Frost caught lightning in a bottle. Then failed miserably. We need someone proven

We don't have time for if's and maybe's.

That's the best way for us to guarantee that we will continue to struggle - being too chickens#!t scared with PTSD to take a chance.
Bob Stoops was an if/maybe for OU.
Kirby Smart was an if/maybe for UGA.
Saban was an if/maybe for LSU.
Dabo was an if/maybe for Clemson.
Luke Fickell, Ryan Day, PJ Fleck, Lincoln Riley, the list goes on and on.
Except for all the times they aren't in coaching, which is....all the time.
Rich Rod at WVU compared to Michigan and everywhere else.
Dan Hawkins at Boise and then CU compared to Chris Petersen at Boise and then Washington
Mack Brown at Texas compared to Mack Brown at USC
Les Miles at Okie State compared to Les Miles at LSU
Les Miles at LSU compared to Kansas
Charlie Strong at Louisville compared to Texas
Bret Bielema at Wisconsin compared to Arkansas
Chip Kelly at Oregon compared to UCLA

No it doesn't. The list is extremely short compared to all the if/maybes that don't hit.
And PJ Fleck? You serious? Exhibit A of how short that list really is if you're having to include PJ Fleck to make your point.
Not one of those guys has even close to Urban's resume. If Urban wasn't an option, then you can start talking about the best of the if/maybes, because that's all we'd have to chose from. But Urban's an outlier by a long stretch so none of your arguments apply to him at all.
