Something Crazy: Coaching Stat

You want me to tell you something crazy?  I'm not sure what it means, but it means something about our culture at UGA, maybe good, maybe bad, probably a little of both.  It is different.  It has always been different.  Brown stepping down made me thinking about it because Richt is now the 5th longest tenured coach in CFB.  

Here it is: 

Since 1939, we've had 6 football coaches. Florida has had 13 in that time frame.  Alabama has had 12.  We've had 4 since '64.  That's all pretty remarkable.  If Richt retires in 4-5 years and we hire Kirby at around 41 or 42 and he stays till he's about 62, we could go 100 years with 7 head coaches.
