For those who don’t know, legendary head coach Larry Kehres (Vince’s father) won 11 Division III championships at Mount Union—Matt Campbell was a D lineman on three and the Offensive Coordinator/O Line coach on two others.

“Kehres retired from coaching in May 2013 with a record of 332–24–3 as head coach of the Mount Union Purple Raiders football team, and a winning percentage of .929, the highest in college football history.”
“Kehres is 3–1 against college football's all-time winningest coach, John Gagliardi, having beaten Gagliardi's St. John's squads twice in playoff match-ups and traded wins in the national title game in 2000 and 2003.”
John Gagliardi was another Division III legendary coach (all time winningest college head coach) at Saint John’s University in Minnesota. He was known for practicing with little contact (no tackling), wanting his team free of injury, fresh and itching for contact on game day (or something like that).

“Gagliardi was known for his unique coaching approach, which he called "Winning with No's." He instructed his players not to call him "coach", did not use a whistle or blocking sleds, prohibited tackling in practices, did not require his players to lift weights, and limited his team practices to 90 minutes.”
You just had to bring up that coach from MN! He was at times a guest on Norm Hitzges' show. There are few schools I cheer against more than SJU!
Mel Tucker looks to be staying at MSU. I don't think Penn St. is opening. It's a better job than almost every SEC job! If neither of those jobs open then Matt Campbell probably comes to TCU.
