Why these teams give big money to college coaches is beyond me. When does it work? Steve Spurrier and Nick Saban are hugely successful college coaches who were completely overmatched in the pros. Petrino was also very sucessful at Louisville but was overwhelmed in the NFL. Those are just three of the top of my head

I guess Jimmie Johnson is the only real success I can come up with. And he came from Miami which was the closest thing to the pros as thier is in college football
