If I was a young D2 or FCS coach I would love to come to EMU and be part of his staff and be part of the best culture and value program IMO in the MAC and one of the best in the entire country.

He seems to build a superior culture. It cannot be an accident that QB Michael Penix transferred from one Creighton disciple, Tom Allen at IU, to another at Washington. I assume there was collaboration with DeBoer on the move.

No hires like Josh Gattis who spit back at you when they depart.

It makes me a little sad that his underlings are getting filthy rich and the man himself is still grinding in relative obscurity. Selfishly, I hope he retires at EMU but a part of me wouldn't mind seeing him getting rewarded with a shot on the biggest stage, making big $$$...of course after we win the MAC championship.

Chris Creighton has made over $5.5 M the past 10 years while at EMU. Probably 4 or 5 times all of you have made in your lifetimes.

Relatively speaking, yes he is wealthy BUT in the college football world, he is nowhere near as rich as a P5 head coach. I hope this point is obvious...
