McElwain won back to back East titles. We haven’t won one since 2007. And they fired him. They will keep hiring and firing until someone wins big.
OK, so when will they win big under this model? Moreso, when will they get the program to a level of consistent success?
From the looks of your example, they get impatient after initially positive results, bail/fire at the sniff of struggles, and start over. Has this gotten them to where they used to be? By 'acting like what they are..." ...er, were? Their current state looks little like Meyer or Spurrier.
The point is that your example doesn't support your proposed solution.
You were very close to reality when you mentioned in a previous post, something to the effect that "or else we'll become known as a program where someone can't win". The fact of the matter is that we've come very close to (or have been) that already. And we got there with defective administration that were using your very solution. "Act like what we..." er... WERE! Hire and fire in a panicked cycle. There comes the day when you are NOT what you once were. You become the school known that recruits see as a loser. You become the admin known to prospective coaches as the place where you go to be fired, and where your career dies.
And when you're there, it's impossible to operate as though you are what you once were. Once there, it's just that much more important to have great administration, with a great coach, with long-term joint plans and appropriate patience along with measurable results over time. And once you're there, it's asinine to define the measurable results by "By God, twenty years ago, when the SEC was so much weaker, our records were..."
