Have you looked at the numbers he put up at UCLA? He had some athletes running plenty fast, was just starting to get the women's team going, and he was getting Men's teams out of the West CC Region, no small feat.
He's doing a pretty good job at W&M considering it is a gutted program that can't afford to go anywhere. I believe he could be very successful going home, AND traveling to the big meets isn't a big deal out of Boise. The bigger issue is whether he wants to leave and all that entails...
