Illinois just hired Toledo's Mike Beckman to replace Ron Zook.
Quote from the above article:
"So in targeting Beckman at Toledo, Thomas is simply returning to a league that has a long and distinguished reputation for churning out top-rate head coaches. Michigan’s Bo Schembechler, Ohio State’s Woody Hayes, Notre Dame’s Ara Parseghian and Northwestern’s Randy Walker not only earned their head coaching stripes in the MAC, they all held the head coaching job at Miami of Ohio.
Current Missouri head coach Gary Pinkel was hired after a successful stint at Toledo. Current Alabama head coach Nick Saban was once head coach at Toledo. And current Michigan coach Brady Hoke was head coach at Ball State."
