He can point to some hellacious offensive performances and claim the development of Tyler Bray (which has been a pretty massive undertaking). That has to help on the recruiting trail (not to mention Drew Brees...)
Chaney is a popular pick right now, and I get it.

My only concern would be if he tries to run pure pro-style, which I don't think can succeed at Missouri over the long haul. But the guy has major spread offense chops and experience, as Drew Brees can attest. I wouldn't complain about the hire.

Joker Phillips also makes sense to me, as does Tony Franklin at La. Tech.
