Great coaches, coach great. Jones lost one more than the sum of his talent in each of his first two years. People were somehow surprised and disappointed when this pattern continued. He was not a good coach.
A "good" coach next fall beats Vandy, UK, Mizzou, 3 of the NC games then at least one of the 3 vs USCe, UF, and WVU. It would be an indication of something better than good if he wins all 3.
One of the things you can watch for is how physical the team plays and how many injuries they have. Injuries happen. They happen more to teams that are hesitant or poorly developed.
