A "home run hire" is all in the eye of the beholder. The best of the best all had a first job. And when they got it, somebody bitched and griped about the decision. If a veteran coach is hired, he's too old for some fans. Just like a lot of hires in a lot of places, it could be a "home run" or a "whiff". The funny thing about it most hires end up being both, it just depends on who you talk to.

I agree, I would argue there are more good coaches in the state than there is good jobs, even the best of the best would struggle at alot of the perennial bottom dwellars. In short, Dudley aint winning at Jenkins or Phelps.
