I don't care about "proven he can win", I care about "can win". There's a difference, and it's not insignificant.

Spurrier, Saban, and Miles all once worked jobs before they had proven they could win in the SEC and yet they...won in the SEC.

You don't have to hire a proven name, you don't have to hire the most well known guy. You have to hire the right guy.

Chiefs fans, of all people, should know this. Dick Vermeil was a proven guy. Scott Pioli was a 3x Executive of the Decade. Neither one of them were the right guy.

The most well known candidate or the one with the most panache is rarely the best candidate for the job, just the best marketed.
