Florida should be consistently great at every sport.  Its probably the easiest gig outside of Texas.  But somehow they were whatever for decades, until hiring the best coaches of their generation (Spurrier/Donovan), and then otherwise perpetually underachieved unless they looked the other way to hire a coach who looked the other way (Urban/Golden)
