So, is he gone after this season, or does he get one more?  My GUESS is he gets one more, at least, to show progress.

OSU has had four coaches in fifteen years without any major struggles, so I would be surprised if there aren't some fairly competent teams that have had five.
The best program with five in 15 is Cincinnati. Discounting mid-majors that are easily plucked, the best team with five in 15 is Miami. Louisville half counts as a mid-major and also had five. 

Florida was one year away from five, but Urbs arrived in 2005.

Are we talking about Jim? 

I think you can't lose to bad MSU and IU in the same season. Plus the year ends with a whipping by OSU. And you have to beat UW and PSU to stay above .500 in the regular season? Toast.

Which teams with five were consistently good during their 15 year stretch? 

I.e. If a team struggled through four coaches before finding a good one, I don't consider that an example of a "good team with 5 coaches in 15 years" just because they're good at the end of it.

OSU is a great example of maintaining program success through multiple coaching changes, but even then it's only 4.

Can anyone ever recall an all-time great hof coach being immediately replaced by an even better hof all-time great coach?

That just doesn’t happen. Yet it happened at OSU.

Chuck Fairbanks to Barry Switzer at Oklahoma

Johnny Majors to Phillip Fulmer at Tennessee

Galen Hall to Steve Spurrier at Florida

West Virginia may have had it going from Nehlen to RichRod, if he had just stayed.

Oregon going from Books to Belotti to Kelly

Galen Hall cheated despite replacing a cheater (Charley Pell).  That's.....not bright.

Right, but his use of the word "immediately"....

Yeah, but he also won, and had Florida (I believe) at it's highest point in program history...then went and got Spurrier

It was immediate. He was contacted as soon as OSU could, and was hired while the interim was still coaching. He began recruiting immediately too.

Cindy's worst coach was Tubbs, and even he managed to muster a Conference Title.

Dino was the only one that didn't, and he turned out ok.
