The tenure clock
Every stop re-aligned to its own first year, so the stops stack instead of scrolling past each other. The gray dashed line is a reference, not a path: each point is the median of whoever was still in the job that year, across every real OC/DC stint since 2014 at that role, and the pool shrinks year over year because surviving to a later year means not having been fired.
Florida Atlantic 2018–2019
South Florida 2020–2021
Ole Miss 2022–2025
LSU 2026–2026

Florida Atlantic 2018–2019: ranked 99th the year before he arrived, 81st at its best — went backwards.
LSU: just hired, no season coached yet.
