The recent success factor only goes back 10 seasons, however total experience of a coach (which goes back for all time) is a large factor in hiring decisions as well. I've submitted multiple tickets on this matter and that has been what's been communicated to me.

Here is the FAQ that lists the four factors. Longevity is the one that gives coaches who have been around a long time a leg up in seeking coaching jobs, regardless of performance. However, performance goes back 10 years for DI jobs, and the bar for a current A prestige and highest baseline prestige team like Kansas is absurdly high on the performance criteria.

When you browse the list of job openings, each one will have a brief bit of advice from your agent, which will give you an indication of whether you're qualified.

There are multiple factors that a school uses to decide whether to accept your application, including but not limited to (and not necessarily in this order):

• Overall Experience
• Recent Success (going back at most 10 seasons)
• Reputation
• Loyalty

To me, the first two bullet points contradict each other.
