I disagree about that. NU had trouble after a 9-3 season precisely 
because NU fired a coach that went 9-3. Urban Meyer was quoted (he was 
at Utah and the hottest major coach to be out there), when asked if he 
was interviewing, They fired a 9 win coach, who won 75% of his games 
and ran a clean program. This is precisely what is wrong with college 
football. 

The quote is from memory, but is fairly accurate.
