LB Coach James Laurinaitis (2x B1G DPOY, 2006 Nagurski, 2007 Butkus, 2008 Lott, 3x All-American, OSU HOF, National Champion)

The adage is that stars can't coach and there's more than a lot of truth to that. The best coaches are usually backup or (See Day, Ryan) small school QBs, not QB1s. Stars who can coach are outliers and it's statistically absurd that we have three who were Buckeye star players who are now kicking ass as coaches and not just on the recruiting side, but developing the talent they're bringing in which, of course, brings in more.
