Why Manning will be more like Richardson, Smith, and Self-

Manning’s short two year resume was immediately impacted by his ability to recruit. He had two players on the CUSA all-freshman team and that talent influx was the primary reason for the increase in the win total in year 1, which looked like another season under Wojcik.

    • Manning also a name and presence that any coach would like to have. He was a national champion at Kansas and spent his pre-Tulsa years under Self with the Kansas coaching staff. If there was anyone who understood how to convert Tulsa success into future success, it was Self.

    Why Manning could be Peterson or Robinson-

    Manning moved up the chain very quickly with only two years coaching at Tulsa. The last guys who replicated that both found difficulty at the next level. Like Robinson, Manning was an assistant and not a head coach before coming to Tulsa (so was Tubby). The ACC is not really the place to learn the coaching craft. Wake Forest is a place with aspirations not dissimilar from Tennessee or Florida State when the other two went to those places.
