That's across four different AD's and three or four different Presidents, so it doesn't suggest it's an isolated problem.  It's not even solely a "new era" problem isolated to the NIL era, though I will freely admit we had better success in the Tyrone Willingham era (but even that was up and down), and before that Denny Green [but at least those coaches were clearly better than these].  Nor do the coaches clearly fit a pattern; Teevens was an assistant at Florida with Steve Spurrier.  Harris had success at Pitt.  Taylor had success at Sac State.  Pritchard had NFL experience as a coordinator.  Our one successful guy, Harbaugh, was successful in non-scholarship FCS (USD).  In some ways, the Harbaugh/early Shaw era is the interlude, a respite to a bunch of bad teams and bad coaches since the curse of the Seattle Bowl.

Pritchard was the QB coach not OC at Washington.

Pritchard most recently spent three seasons as quarterbacks coach of the Washington Commanders, having mentored Jayden Daniels, Jacoby Brissett, Sam Howell and Marcus Mariota.
