The Franchise
Pat Fitzgerald, Mark Dantonio, James Franklin, Paul Chryst and Kirk Ferentz. All tied for 1st.
Not to change the subject, but are we talking all time or current?
All time, this guy wins.
Obviously it's not whomever coaches Ohio State. Neither Tressel or Meyer were ever worthy of winning coach of the year according to the fuck sticks that vote for such things.
now that Urbs is gone?
Lettuce discuss
Any jackwagon can win at OSU, PSU or Michigan so their coaches are out
Illinois , Rutgers , Maryland ,Indiana , Minnesota have all sucked for some time so their coaches are out .
Purdue and Nebraska coaches are good but too new
That leaves
Dantonio
Fitzgerald
Chryst
Ferentz
Fitz is great but hasn't had a really truly awesome season ( like a top 10 )
Chryst is great but he's not really been any better than the guys before him
So for me it's probably Dantonio 1 Ferentz 2
....and a nice couple they are!I've seen a couple.
Dabo, Kirby, Jimbo and Saban.
Touche....and a nice couple they are!
He coached in a weak conference at a school in one of the most talent rich states in the country. I think he got lucky that the playoffs weren’t a year earlier because I think Michigan State and Alabama would have beat them.
Dabo, Kirby, Jimbo and Saban.
I thought Texas should have nabbed Dantonio when they hired Charlie.Auburn should have beat him. Put Dantonio or Fitzgerald at a place like FSU and they have the exact same success if not more.

Idk if you can really put Kirby over Jimbo now. What has Kirby done that Jimbo hasn’t already?Dabo and Saban definitely. I would say Kirby is just right there. I wouldn't say Jimbo until he does something at TAMU.
I would put Peterson just under Kirby. Kirby has done more but he has also had more. Peterson at Washington definitely hasn't had a lot less though. There have been a lot of elite coaches that have retired.
Those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head who I would consider elite right now.

Texas leadership was terrible so it prob wouldn’t have worked but if it had been Good/solid and they HAD hired him... big things in Austin imo.
