So, he's had 1 great season and a whole bunch of nothing? Good luck with that.
He did win a national championship there.

Butch Jones says seniors have won the 'championship of life'
When Tennessee football coach Butch Jones was asked about his senior players, he responded with a quote that is blowing up the internet.

Now, Dowell Loggains is an authentic coaching vagabond. Recent 1 year South Carolina OC, prior 1 year Arkansas TE coach, and multiple NFL QB coach & OC single season pit stops. Challenging industry, maybe it pans out for Loggains and App State.

Could you imagine rehiring a former coach thinking that your school is going to relive its glory days? That's crazy.

He accomplishes all of that and only gets a call up to Charlotte? Seems like a lateral move....why leave a good thing you got going.....I know, money

And a chance to put the word Head in front of the word coach.

Did I read it wrong or is not already the head coach at Ohio?

Looks official as I saw it on ESPN crawler. Odom had good year at UNLV so not surprised that he is moving on to P4
You didn’t read it wrong.
NIL doing its work. Seems like a reordering of coaching around G5s - struggling programs with more resources poaching the successful ones at less funded programs.
Would not be surprised to see Charlotte and App State post 8-10 win seasons next year.

Maybe Charlotte has more upside, but Ohio is an upper tier MAC program and Charlotte is a bottom tier AAC program. Maybe Albin wanted a new challenge. Ohio was paying Albin ~$700k and Poggi at Charlotte was making $1 million so I would guess a nice bump in pay.

Similarly, not surprised Odom’s departing the new MWC and reportedly financially challenged UNLV (even with the bribe the school received to stay in the new MWC).

Escape economically depressed SE Ohio, join higher ranked conference, more Saturday, fewer midweek games, opportunity to build rapidly expanding school’s program in growing city, involvement in stadium expansion, and as you suggest likely higher comp.

NC State's DC Tony Gibson turned down Charlotte for Marshall so he perceived Marshall was a better job than Charlotte. It's a tough job especially with 7 FBS schools in North Carolina, but Charlotte is a growing school that is a newcomer to FBS football and they seem to want to win.

Probably best they could afford. It’s a tiny school.
You do realize Gibson is a WV guy?
