The destination job speak in another thread sparked my interest in the numbers. No particular order. Based on history of wins and national titles. I probably could've included Penn State, but whatever. Went back to who the coach was in '95 even though they might have been there previous to '95. Quite a mixed bag. While I hope we can get a Pinkel equivalent or better to carry on our recent history, history shows even the blue bloods can screw it up. I'd actually forgot about some of these names.
