I think your statement is a misrepresentation.
I will admit upon further review there were more than I stated who came with prior experience and still failed, but the results are still very heavily slanted towards the experienced HC hires.
I overlooked: Hunk Anderson, Hugh Devore, and Joe Kuharich. I thought when I did this research they showed no prior College HC experience but apparently I was wrong.
So when you look at all of our HCs and break them into win percentage of .750 and above vs those under that, you have 10 HCs above .750 who came in with prior HC experience and only 5 above that who were inexperienced.
When you look at guys under .750 (Kelly is at the top with .738) you have 10 who were inexperienced and only 5 who were experienced.
Mathematically, that is literally inverse results when you hire experienced vs inexperienced HCs.
