So, basically Gus has 1 conference championship and a blown lead in the NCG. Kirby has done the same in far less time on the job.

How many number 1 recruiting classes has Gus had?
Dude take your pissing contest somewhere else. My point was Gus isn't a top 5 overrated coach.

You can suck off Kirby on your own time.

I never said he was top 5 overrated. I'm just saying Kirby is just as accomplished in things that matter in far less time on the job.

But get pissy if want, there's no rule against it as far as I can tell.

Most Iowa fans are not huge fans of him.

Well it takes all the fun out of it if you agree with the rest of us.
















Nevermind. Still fun making fun of him.

This place would be a ghost town if such a rule existed.

Jimbo has a natty.
Malzahn has done more than anyone else on that list

Gus has done more than any other coach in the SEC other than Saban

Jimbo has a natty, but he's also getting paid like $10 million a year which is just fucking retarded.

Gus lost to Jimbo and you were lucky to be there to start with. Gus's only real accomplishment is beating Saban a couple of times and being OC when Cam Newton was QB. He's proven he ain't much more than a high school coach. And he's along the lines of Chip Kelly, that whole gimmick is no longer new or a big deal, it's been more than a decade since "going fast" came out.

Considering he has accomplished more than 90% of the rest of CFB your comments are much more opinion than fact. I don't like Chip Kelly but he didn't under achieve at Oregon.

Tom Herman - yes
Jim Harbaugh - yes
Butch Jones - yes
Mark Richt - yes
Kevin Sumlin - yes
Larry Fedora - yes

The list goes a long way until you get to Gus.

What has he done other than beat Saban a few times?

Actual over-rated list:

5. Jimbo Fisher
4. Chip Kelly
3. Gus Malzhan
2. Willie Taggart
1. Harbaugh

I think Taggart is getting there. He built up Western Kentucky into a place that now puts out NFL talent and draft picks on offense and then resurrected a USF program that was in shambles after Skip Holtz. Charlie Strong only reaps the benefits from Taggart's recruiting and talent development.

Taggart isn't a miracle worker like say Tom Herman, Urban Meyer, etc. He's a program builder like Saban or James Franklin.

Give him 3 years at FSU and we'll see if he's legit. The talent is there, he's just got to get them back to playing together.

I swear I think these Alabama fans are so focused on their Tuscaloosa Timing Elephants that they don't know what is going on in the rest of the college football world.

Lets go SEC someone knock these guys off their pedestal.

I actually agree with the article, doesn't seem click bait at all.

So you'll be shocked when Chip Kelly bombs at UCLA?

The only reason Chip had the success he did was Scott Frost.
Without Scott, Chipperz was average at best.

To reiterate my point above, sports media no longer actually writes articles or does in-depth pieces on specific topics or about specific teams, they just come up with ranking lists every year. Now, they're coming out with ranking lists to rank their own ranking lists.

IMO, Harbaugh is only over-rated if you put him above the top 4-5 coaches in America. I don't think he's over rated if ranked appropriately in the top 10 or 15 coaches in America.
