Tony White is a well known, proven coordinator in his own right. His resume speaks for itself. The whole alum thing is just extra dressing good for a news article.
I don't see a problem hiring assistants to be HC. All HC comes through the assistant route.
I place some blame on the assistants. Foster is a CEO coach, responsible for getting NIL money, face of the program and recruiting. Game plan, preparation, technique and conditioning is on the assistants.
One play from last week, there was a timeout and a huddle on the sidelines. Foster and Tino obviously has different opinions on the playcall with Foster walking away shaking his head and speaking directly to Tino. In the old day, OC deferred to the HC decision but in this case, the OC seems to have more control on offense than the HC.
