I mean, this is what it takes for a program like IU or UI to have a shot at a natty in football. Could Bret build us up to a point where we get into the playoffs? Sure. To the point where we could actually win it? Seems like that's less likely than what IU did here, really.

It's kind of like what Craig Tiley did in tennis, was hired to run the facility at UIUC, then became the coach, brought in some amazing talent and won it all.
