In response to mrjames
You have to tie the timing of what happens with coaching instability to the HYPr recruiting run (which I know you agree with). During this period, only Cornell and Dartmouth had a vacancy. I have long believed that the worst aspect of the Jerome Allen hiring was that the assistants who were passed over would not stay--and when they left, he was exposed. But Donahue has had a stable coaching staff for 3 years--so why suddenly is he having trouble recruiting? Your logic is just as much correlation over causation as mine. So I'll believe that the FA is a factor, since it has gone way up, especially during the relevant time period for the same 3 that are now succeeding.
