Our Rival's Defensive Coordinator Greg Mattison had this to say about Hoke yesterday:
Why should he be here? Because he's a winner. He's won every where he's been.
Me being me, as my wife would say, I had to check to see how much of a winner Hoke has been during his coaching career.

6 out his 12 seasons finished below .500 and 10 out of 12 seasons finished below .700 (9-4 or worse) would you call that a winner?
