Gross used SU to get a better job.  I jest.

My take is that incompetent Nancy hired Gross, supposedly because of his hiring of Pete Carroll.   They don't mention Gross's strike out on his previous football coach hire.  Coach P was not performing well.  After the Bowl game, Nancy is embarrassed and tells Gross to fire Coach P.  Meanwhile it's after the hiring season so there are few coaches available.

Gross ask Pete to recommend a coach.  Pete tells him about his old college buddy Grob.  Grob has little college experience and assembles a crappy hasty assemblage  of assistant coaches.  It's like he went down to the unemployed coaches hiring hall and grabbed the first bunch of guys he saw.  Can you spell "DEFENSE"?  Good you're hired.  "Next in line"

My take is it's Nancy's fault for hiring the good doctor in the first place and then Gross not telling Nancy that it would be better to wait until the next year to fire coach P.

That's my take.  The result  is fifteen years of misery for a SU football fan.
