"3. Navy is rolling. I thought the newberry move to HC would backfire on them but it was a good hire and his OC hire was an A+ hire. And, as we've seen for 2 decades, these navy coaches like being at Navy"
Historically, a span of a lot more than 2 decades, 2 of 3 of the best Navy coaches moved on within 10 years.
George Welch, 1973-1981, moved to University of Virginia
Paul Johnson, 2002-2007, moved to Georgia Tech
Ken Nuimatalolo, 2007-2022 (and even longer because he was an assistant), fired and ended up at San Jose State
