Expand As an HC here he wasn't gangbusters but not a disaster. His interim record from 2008 train wreck drags down his overall record. Franchise was in the depths of despair prior to him. Made playoffs 09-11. Restored respectability here. He didn't do it alone by any means but he earned a fair share of the credit for the turnaround., imo. As a coordinator elsewhere? I'll leave that to others for comment.
