Who are your top ten coaches?

[scottone928]

Be honest and put aside any allegence or disdain.
Mine are:

1- Pete Carroll( Enough said)
2- Urban Meyer( East coast Pete Carrol)
3- Steve Spurrier( Gets way more out of less)
4- Bob Stoops( He turned around a bad OK program)
5- Butch Davis( The NC at Miami was with his kids)
6- Jim Tressel
7- Nick Saban( I do not personally like him, but he is great)
8- Ralph Friedgen
9- June Jones
10- Jeff Tedford

These are who I think are the best coaches in college football. What do you think?

8,9, and 10 are all laughable as top 10, but it's your opinion.

 

[UT IE 95]

He must be basing this list on career accomplishments - maybe?

 

[TBALLVOL]

1- Pete Carroll-Could not carry Gruden's jock strap in the NFL
2- Urban Meyer-Wishes he was Gruden
3- Steve Spurrier- Gruden at age 65
4- Bob Stoops-What Gruden looks like with a cowboy hat
5- Butch Davis-Gruden is too good to go to NC
6- Jim Tressel-Gruden looked at OS, doesn't like to wear ties
7- Nick Saban-Unlike Gruden, could not play with the big boys
8- Ralph Friedgen-What?
9- June Jones- Is this Gruden's wife?
10- Jeff Tedford-If Gruden had been our coach the past two years, this guy would not even be on your list.

Good coach !!!!

 

[scottone928]

Now since most would put Butch Davis as top 10 coach, I feel he would be a great head coach for the UT program. He is one heck of a recruiter, and would pipe in a ton of top Florida players. He was great with Miami and I feel he would be one of the coaches I would want.

 

[allvol123]

All this Gruden/Cowher talk aside. Leavitt does seem a likely and realistic candidate.

True, I did not think of him. Pretty good choice.

I would love to see him here on the hill, however he's turned down Miami and Bama because he said he wants to build USF into a powerhouse
