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.
Colorado State 2014–2014
Oregon State 2015–2015
Median of those still in the job, that year of a tenure. A shrinking pool, not a path.

Every stop on the calendar
| Years | Program | Walked into | Year 1 | Best | Vs. talent |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2014–2014 | Colorado State | no record | 89.5 | 89.5 | — |
| 2015–2015 | Oregon State | 36.3 | 23.8 | 23.8 | −28.2 |
No prior-season record for the first stop (Colorado State, 2014) — the data floor starts there.
Oregon State 2015–2015: ranked 36th the year before he arrived, 24th at its best — went backwards.
