He has won in DII, 1AA, and now 1A. Finding a coach who has achieved success at a lower level at several different schools is a sign that they are a solid head coach and that their success isn't the result of a great coordinator or a great program already in place when they took the job.

I don't think so. I think we have to be realistic now. We do not have the facilities yet. We are building them. You need a young guy who has constantly improved his situation despite his resources. This is why I like Scotty Walden for the job. He has grown a culture there in 3 seasons and has improved the record each season. He has brought fans there to watch games as well. More than us frankly. Mack also can be that guy because he had even less resources at NCCU and was dominant in that league. Mack is about 10 years older than Walden but both are dynamic and get results with little. We need that right now frankly. No coach we get is gonna be perfect but both are experienced HC's which was 100% more than what Stock had in HC experience when he first got here.
Good coach but at 58, does he have the ability to connect with this generation? Technology, NIL, Portal. We know Walden and Mack do because of their recruiting ability. Massaro said himself that he wants an over the top ra ra guy who works the portal and can help with NIL. All of that points to a younger out of the box guy. Some of these older dudes that haven't been called up yet just don't resonate with that in my mind.
The MT Union is a winning program, the program is very successful, the previous coach was something like 95-6 and now is the DC at Toledo.Geoff Dartt is a young coach with an overall record of 42–3

I was going to mention precious coach. 95-6 at Mount Union and DC on 11-1 Toledo
The Toledo head coach is a former Mount Union player and OC.
Man, you really dug deep finding a guy at Limestone. I grew up there and he has been the only good thing there. I think it’s too early to really tell but they’ve only made the playoffs twice and he was the coach for both. They got rolled both times but they have improved under him a lot.
He has been but they haven’t lost more than 3 games in a season since 2002 (6-4). They’ve only lost 3 games in a season 5 times since then with a lot of 1 loss seasons and national championships with two different coaches. He wins but that culture was already in place way before he got there. Also D3 is no scholarships so I doubt his recruiting is where it needs to be.Another extremely successful head coach is Brad Spencer.

Looks like it's going in the right direction. If they win a championship in a few years, I'd say he's the real deal
