(But, if you prefer -- you can use Rick Pitino at Boston University, a school that has won their conference a number of times. Pitino was 64% at BU, and a couple of years later moved to Kentucky where he won 81%)

You're mixing your analogies. Wolfson's ROI has also gone through the roof so you can't just say it was better stock. The better analogy would be a coach that is winning against the spread 49% of the time for a 10 year period suddenly goes on a 3 year run where he wins against the spread 59% of the time every year. Even though everyone knows his team keeps beating the spread and the spread adjusts he somehow maintains his percentage. Highly unlikely that would ever happen.
