Did Troy make the right call?

The week before Chip Lindsey was hired to be the next head football coach at Troy University, former Head Coach Neal Brown told the media that his best Trojan football team would debut this fall.

Even the most optimistic fan took his commitment with a grain of salt. A coach with three straight seasons, with at least 10 wins each, certainly piqued the interests of athletic directors across the country.

Not to say Brown is the best head coach in the country, yet, or ever will be, but there have been coaches who have produced far less results but got the opprotunity to coach some major football teams such as Kliff Kingsbury, who jumped straight from Texas Tech (NCAA) to be the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals (NFL).
