No, it seems like an ill-defined and ultimately unattainable goal.

If the definition is Marshall or (and I'm guessing here) Boston College in '93, does that mean that we'd all feel better if we had Marshall's coach because of his signature win?

What is un-signature about dethroning a Heisman trophy winner who was the #1 draft pick? And while I am still struggling to understand what the term means, it's notable at least.
