That is a risky hire. They must have a lot of faith in him. From my own personal perspective I think it's better to work for a couple established head coaches and form your own way of doing things before you become a head coach. Even if it's learning what not to do, you are still learning. Hopefully, they will be patient, and give him a few years to be able to try different things in order to find out what kind of program he's going to have. If not, it won't be fun for him or the team. I wish him the best. He's in a tough spot.
