I don't have time to vet it, but that has to be a misprint regarding respective records/number of games for Donahue and Mooney.

ESPN released their Coaching Carousel preview this morning, and does not mention Donahue as a name at Penn State. Yale's James Jones, the only Ivy League coach mentioned in the article, is listed in the "Mid-Major Names to Watch" section where it is noted that he "had strong momentum early in the process at Penn State", although he is not listed as a name in the Penn State specific section (perhaps meaning that momentum has since faded).
