So, is DM the most successful former assistant of old Urbs?

Kyle Whittingham is probably the most successful. Ryan Day or Mullen will likely go on to be the most successful. He's had a few others, but many - including Whittingham - were already established coaches before they worked under Meyer. Charlie Strong is considered a part of his tree - but Strong also worked for Holtz & Spurrier. Schiano had already been a head coach before working under Meyer. Doc Holliday has had a good career at Marshall, next year will be his 11th season there. Luke Fickell looks like he has a promising career ahead of him, but he's more of a Tressel guy.

The CSU fans up here still love them some McElwain. That’s all you should need to know.

There's a hell of a point. They could have hired him back, cheaper than they had him before.

I said fans, not administration. I’ve found football knowledge in these parts to be somewhat...lacking.

This is from the Athletic regarding all of the coaching hires, Addazio was the worst hire (according to them w/ a grade of D):

Colorado State (D): Former Boston College coach Steve Addazio. This was by far the strangest hire of the whole carousel. Thanks to Addazio pal Urban Meyer serving as consultant during the search, CSU wound up hiring a career 57-55 head coach with zero experience in the Western half of the country.
