Let's just hope he doesn't start training for a marathon

No. It's not. It's good, but Dan had 6 years coaching at elite programs in Utah and Tennessee and was part of teams that won 2 national championships and 3 NY6 bowl games.
Yep, 8 years under Swervin Urban told you immediately that this guy was going to work. You don't hang around that long under those type coaches and not be good. Similar to Smart being under Saban for like 8 years.

Dan was QB coach for most of those years under Meyer. He was only promoted to OC in 2005 at Florida. Lebby has six years of OC experience at four different schools. All of those schools have had top offenses during his time at OC.

That's how it works. Urban ran the offense until he trained Mullen.

And I'd venture to say that Lebby didn't really call his own offense until he got to Oklahoma.

He called his own plays at Ole Miss. He had some restrictions his first year, Kiffin called 4th down stuff and the occasional goal line play. Year 2 was all Lebby. I'm not sure about UCF, think it was similar to Ole Miss.

All under the same guy and not all as the OC. Dan was OC for 3 years before coming here. 14 years as a coach period. 21 for Lebby with 6 years as an OC. But ya know....whatever you think. The national championship part is true enough but at BG snd Utah he was only QB coach
