- Rating 74: his whole career, recent seasons weighted most, measured as how far his teams stood above their era, crediting him with half of what each program already was when he arrived (about the share that, historically, follows a coach to his next job), fading as the program becomes his own.
- Peak 79: best five-season stretch, 2004–2008 at 13 and 3A D1 and 3A D2 (62-6).
- Career 78 (#77 since 1936): total accomplishment over 22 seasons (228-52), 0 national titles, 5 elite seasons; full credit for the program he inherited.
- Won big at one of his 6 programs (UTSA).
