Since 2020
LSU's defensive coordinator during their 2019 national title before taking over at Baylor in 2020. Delivered a Big 12 title and Sugar Bowl win in 2021 (12-2), but results have been inconsistent since — extended through 2029 after a stretch of retention decisions tied more to program stability than sustained results.

Years in system—
ATS contextNo single published career ATS figure 2025 finished 5-7 (11th in the Big 12), missing a bowl despite QB Sawyer Robertson leading all Power 4 passers in yardage (3,681 yds). A real case of empty box-score stats: elite passing volume didn't translate into wins, and Robertson's national QB ranking fell from No. 8 in early October to No. 33 by season's end as turnovers piled up.
