Regardless of the reasons why, Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma State are prime examples that firing a coach after three years would have prevented three programs reaching new heights.

Gary Pinkel, Mark Mangino and Mike Gundy were a combined 47-62 their first three seasons. They are a combined 79-38 their fourth season and beyond.
