Seriously, these are our best and brightest institutions of higher learning and we still rely on fax machines? What is this the IRS?

Texas pulled a great class. Strong is putting something good together at Texas. Plus, stealing a bunch from aggy never hurts.

Forgive me in my haste to post. I was recovering from a bout of double ended food poisoning and I didn't want the natives to get restless.

PostPosted: Apr 04, 2015 7:05 am    Post subject: CBS Sports ranks the P5 head coaches (+ BYU & ND) Reply with quote

bold for wb.com teams of interest


66. David Beaty, Kansas: Beaty's yet to coach a single game, which definitely hurts his stock here, as does the fact we were all surprised he got this job.

65. Derek Mason, Vanderbilt: Vandy is not an easy job, and Mason deserves time to put his plan in place, but an 0-8 start in the SEC didn't help much here.

64. Darrell Hazell, Purdue: Hazell turned one really good season at Kent State into the Purdue gig and has gone 4-20 in his first two years with the Boilermakers.

63. Pat Narduzzi, Pittsburgh: Like Beaty, Narduzzi hasn't been a head coach yet, but his potential and Michigan State defenses were enough to bump him up a few spots.

62. Kevin Wilson, Indiana: The Hoosiers have been an exciting team under Wilson, but it's mostly because the lack of defense leads to some high-scoring games.

61. Mike MacIntyre, Colorado: MacIntyre hasn't accomplished much in his first two seasons at Colorado, going 1-17 in Pac-12 play.

60. Mike London, Virginia - London has recruited well, but the results just haven't been there, as the Cavaliers are 23-38 in his five seasons.

59. Scott Shafer, Syracuse: Shafer took over after Doug Marrone left for the NFL, but after a 7-6 season in 2013, the Orange dropped to 3-9 last year.

58. Mark Stoops, Kentucky: The Wildcats improved by three wins in Stoops' second year in Lexington, and if that trend continues, he'll climb up these rankings quickly.

57. Tim Beckman, Illinois: For all the heat he's taken, Beckman's Illinois teams have improved by two wins each the last couple of seasons. That 4-20 mark in Big Ten play needs to improve, though.

56. Paul Rhoads, Iowa State: Everybody loves Rhoads, but that 29-46 record in six seasons isn't nearly as lovable.

55. Sonny Dykes, California: After going 1-11 in 2013, Dykes' Cal team won five games last season. That's the right kind of trend.

54. Kliff Kingsbury, Texas Tech: Kingsbury's been more sizzle than steak in his first two seasons, as the Red Raiders took a big step backward in 2014.

53. Dave Clawson, Wake Forest: Coaching the Demon Deacons is a very difficult job, but it's not the first time Dave Clawson's been tasked with rebuilding a program. He's succeeded before.

52. Al Golden, Miami: He's had to deal with NCAA sanctions and that bought him some time, but Golden heads into 2015 on one of the hottest seats in the country.

51. Paul Chryst, Wisconsin: We're willing to wager that Chryst's career mark of 19-19 in three seasons at Pitt will improve now that he's back home in Madison.

50. Kyle Flood, Rutgers: Flood's done a respectable job maintaining the Rutgers program following Greg Schiano's departure, and an 8-5 campaign in the Big Ten raised some eyebrows.

49. Jim McElwain, Florida: If McElwain can turn the Gators around like he did Colorado State, he'll be climbing the ladder in no time.

48. Mike Riley, Nebraska: You can't overstate how impressive it was for Riley to get Oregon State playing at that level, but things got a bit stale at the end of his time there, and now he's looking to take Nebraska to the next level.

47. Steve Addazio, Boston College: You have to admire Addazio's "dude" qualities, but Eagles fans would like to see an improvement on his 14-12 start in Chestnut Hill.

46. Pat Fitzgerald, Northwestern: Fitzy would have been top 20 a few years ago -- maybe even top 10 -- but after going 10-14 the last two seasons, his star is fading a bit.

45. Randy Edsall, Maryland: Edsall took UConn to a Fiesta Bowl only seven years after it jumped to the FBS. That's good. His 20-30 record at Maryland is ... not.

44. Larry Fedora, North Carolina: The Tar Heels have taken a step backward each season Fedora's been in charge, but only the NCAA has kept him from going to a bowl game in each of his seven seasons as a head coach.

43. Dana Holgorsen, West Virginia: Holgo led the Mountaineers to an Orange Bowl victory his first season in charge, but he's gone only 18-20 since.

42. Dave Doeren, NC State: Doeren is only 11-14 in two years with the Wolfpack, but he won eight games last season and has two conference titles from his time at Northern Illinois.

41. Jerry Kill, Minnesota: The man Doeren replaced at NIU, Jerry Kill, is just a professional football coach. Can he get Minnesota over the hump and make it a Big Ten contender, though?

40. Steve Sarkisian, USC: Sarkisian has had a lot of talent in his six seasons as a head coach, but he's yet to win 10 games in a season or even a division title.

39. Mike Leach, Washington State: Pullman has not been kind to Leach, as he's gone 12-25 in three years, but we still remember what he did with Texas Tech.

38. Gary Andersen, Oregon State: Leaving Wisconsin for Oregon State may have been the right move for Andersen on a personal level, but will it be the right move as a coach?

37. Butch Jones, Tennessee: Jones has won at his previous coaching stops, and now he's trying to make Tennessee an SEC contender again.

36. Kirk Ferentz, Iowa: Ferentz has accomplished a lot at Iowa in his 16 seasons, it's just none of those accomplishments have come in the last five seasons and the natives are getting restless.

35. Dan Mullen, Mississippi State: Things finally came together for Mullen in Starkville last season, but can the Bulldogs pull off an encore?

34. Jim Mora, UCLA: It's hard to argue with Mora's 29-11 start at UCLA ... but hasn't each season left you feeling like the Bruins could have done more?

33. James Franklin, Penn State: What Franklin accomplished at Vanderbilt was one of the most impressive coaching performances of all time, and should it continue at Penn State, he's going to fly up these rankings in the years to come.

32. David Cutcliffe, Duke: Cutcliffe has won 19 games in the last two seasons at Duke. What more needs to be said?

31. Hugh Freeze, Ole Miss: The Rebels have yet to finish higher than third in the SEC West under Freeze, but they've improved each season.

30. Kyle Whittingham, Utah: Urban meyer may have built it, but Whittingham has done a fantastic job maintaining the Utah program in his 11 seasons, and now it seems the Utes have adjusted to Pac-12 life.

29. Todd Graham, Arizona State: Graham has taken a lot of flak for his job-hopping, but you know what? Schools don't want to hire you if you're not a good coach, and schools want to hire Graham.

28. Bronco Mendenhall, BYU: It's hard to know if Mendenhall would ever leave BYU, but you have to think he'd be even more successful if a “bigger” school ever convinced him, too.

27. Paul Johnson, Georgia Tech: Johnson has been at Georgia Tech seven seasons, and he's won the Coastal Division four times and played in two Orange Bowls.

26. Kevin Sumlin, Texas A&M: Things have gone the wrong direction the last two years at A&M, but you can't help but feel that will turn around with Sumlin in charge.

25. Charlie Strong, Texas: Strong waited a long time to get his first head coaching shot, and once he took over at Louisville, he didn't waste time building the Cardinals into a power. Now he's tasked with doing the same at Texas, and if he succeeds there, he'll climb these rankings even further.

24. Mike Gundy, Oklahoma State: Gundy doesn't get a lot of recognition for what he's accomplished, but the closer you look at the job he's done at Oklahoma State, the more impressed you are. This is a program with five 10-win seasons in its entire history, and Gundy has three of them.

23. Rich Rodriguez, Arizona: Had things gone better at Michigan, Rodriguez would be ranked a lot higher. Still, the job he did at West Virginia and what he's doing right now at Arizona are enough to warrant finishing this high. We can only wonder if he'll try his hand at another "blue blood" should the chance come along.

22. Dabo Swinney, Clemson: It took Dabo four years to get it done but in 2011 he led Clemson to its first ACC title in 20 years. He's also won 42 games the last four years with the Tigers, and if he can get over the Florida State hump, he'll climb even higher.

21. Gary Pinkel, Missouri: This is as much a testament to Pinkel's longevity as it is what he's accomplished. He built Missouri into a legitimate contender in the Big 12, and he then responded to the popular opinion that Missouri would be sacrificed to the SEC gods by winning 23 games the last two years with two SEC East division titles. So, you know, there's a reason he's been around so long.

20. David Shaw, Stanford: Shaw hit the ground running after taking over for Jim Harbaugh, winning 34 games, two Pac-12 titles and a Rose Bowl in his first three seasons with the Cardinal. Things went backward in 2014, though, and how things go from here on out will be Shaw's real legacy with the Cardinal.

19. Bobby Petrino, Louisville: Say what you want about Petrino -- and a lot of people have said a lot of things about him -- you can't deny the fact that, wherever he's been as a college coach, he's won. Whether at Louisville, Arkansas, his one season at Western Kentucky, or now at Louisville again, he has a formula for success that just works.

18. Bret Bielema, Arkansas: His personality may rub some people the wrong way, but you can't deny what Bielema has done as a coach. He won three straight Big Ten titles before leaving for Arkansas, and after a rough start in 2013, the Hogs were a lot better than that 7-6 mark in 2014 might have you believe.

17. Frank Beamer, Virginia Tech: Beamer hasn't won an ACC title since 2010, nor has he won more than eight games in any of the last three years, but that doesn't erase what was a sparkling record before that. The only reason you know or care about Virginia Tech football is Beamer. His seven conference titles (three Big East, four ACC) and six BCS bowl appearance speak for themselves.

16. Bill Snyder, Kansas State: College football's lovable grandfather, Snyder is also one of the best coaches in the country. He took a Kansas State program that was non-existent to anybody outside the state of Kansas and created a respectable power. He's only won two Big 12 titles, but he's also won at least 10 games in eight of the 16 seasons the Wildcats have been in the Big 12 (he has nine 10-win seasons in 23 years at K-State).

15. Mark Dantonio, Michigan State: Dantonio came up under Jim Tressel, and he's just about built Michigan State into one of Tressel's Ohio State teams. It took a while to get Sparty rolling, but Dantonio has won two Big Ten titles, a Rose Bowl and 53 games in the last five seasons. He's also beaten up on Michigan in the process.

14. Mark Helfrich, Oregon: Helfrich has only been at the helm for two years at Oregon, but in that time he's won 24 games and played for a national title. The question going forward will be how his Ducks teams perform without Marcus Mariota, and when they are filled with players he's recruited, not the remains of the Chip Kelly era.

13. Brian Kelly, Notre Dame: If ranking coaches who turn the purplest on the sidelines, Kelly would be a clear winner. As a coach, though, he's still done pretty well for himself. Kelly's Irish team played for a national title in 2012, which still holds weight, but the problem is that his win total has decreased each of the last two seasons.

12. Chris Petersen, Washington: Petersen is no doubt rated this highly thanks to everything he accomplished at Boise State. If we did these rankings two years ago, he'd definitely be in the top 10; however, after a couple of eight-win seasons, his Q rating has taken a bit of a hit.

11. Art Briles, Baylor: Briles loves the state of Texas, and a lot of people in Texas love Briles. And for good reason. He's won 89 games in his 12 seasons at Houston and Baylor, and that includes 40 wins in the last four seasons with Baylor. I mean, the man had Baylor -- Baylor! -- in the College Football Playoff conversation last year. Think about that.

10. Gus Malzahn, Auburn: The 2014 season was the first in Malzahn's career as a head coach that didn't end in a conference title. Even so, he's still a rock star with Auburn fans, and there aren't many college football fans in the country who wouldn't enjoy having Malzahn run their offense. He's both fun and successful so far, and that's a nice combination.

9. Jim Harbaugh, Michigan: There are a lot of factors that got Harbaugh this high. There's what he accomplished in the NFL that no doubt plays a role, but mostly what he did at Stanford as well as what Stanford turned into even after he left. Harbaugh was the one that built that foundation, and if he does the same thing at Michigan his name will be mentioned with Bo Schembechler's, and not just because he played quarterback for him.

8. Jimbo Fisher, Florida State: I can already hear Florida State fans complaining about Fisher being this low. And they have a legitimate gripe! Fisher was tasked with rebuilding a Florida State program that had stagnated under Bobby Bowden and within five seasons he's won at least 10 games four times, three ACC titles and a national championship. That's one hell of a start, no?

7. Mark Richt, Georgia: When it comes to Richt, people spend too much time focusing on what he hasn't done rather than what he has accomplished. The man has coached 184 games with the Bulldogs and he's won 136 (74 percent) of them. He's won two SEC titles (the only two Georgia has won in the last 32 years) and six SEC East crowns. The only thing he's been guilty of has been coaching in a conference that's been the home of some of the best coaches and teams in the country the last 20 years.

6. Steve Spurrier, South Carolina: The Head Ball Coach has accomplished plenty in his time as a college football coach -- his run at Florida was extremely impressive and included a national title in 1996 -- and he deserves to be ranked in the top 10. I'd be lying to you, though, if I didn't say that his personality definitely bumped him up a few spots. He's just fun.

5. Gary Patterson, TCU: From the Conference USA to the Mountain West and now the Big 12, it doesn't matter where Patterson has been coaching the Horned Frogs, he's made a habit of winning games. He has nine double-digit win seasons in 14 years, and after a minor adjustment period to Big 12 life, the Frogs went 12-1 last year and nearly qualified for the College Football Playoff. There's a reason Patterson is the highest ranked coach on this list without a national title to his name.

4. Les Miles, LSU: Do I think Miles is a bit overrated here? Yes, yes I do. If he wasn't the cartoon character that is Les Miles, he'd no doubt drop a notch or two, but you know what? He's still been an excellent coach throughout his career. He helped reverse Oklahoma State's fortunes before taking over at LSU, and since going to Baton Rouge, he's won 78 percent of his games. One of those games was a BCS National Championship Game in 2007 (one of the 22 percent he lost was a BCS title game in 2011). The Mad Hatter has been both mad and successful.

3. Bob Stoops, Oklahoma: Stoops has been so good at Oklahoma that it feels like he's sometimes a victim of his own success. In 16 seasons with the Sooners, he's only failed to win at least 10 games four times, and Oklahoma fans act like the sky is falling when it happens. But at the end of the day, this is a coach who has won a national title as well as eight Big 12 titles in 16 years. He's 168-44 overall and 104-28 in conference play! What's not to love here?

2. Urban Meyer, Ohio State: Meyer may have only finished in second place in these rankings, but he was incredibly close to taking the top spot. Simply put, there's only one coach you would even consider hiring over Meyer if you had your pick of the litter, and it's not exactly a clear choice. He's 142-26 in his career as a head coach, including includes three national titles at two different schools. And he's only 50 years old. The odds are better that he'll finish with at least four national titles than the odds of him finishing with only three. The only thing that can stop Urban is Urban.

1. Nick Saban, Alabama: It says a lot about what Saban has done at Alabama that when the Tide go two years without winning a national title you start to wonder if Saban's losing "it." Putting aside the fact that Saban has won four national championships and five SEC titles as a coach, though, there's another fact about Saban that blows my mind. Think about how powerful the SEC has been since the dawn of the BCS era. Now realize that in his 13 seasons as an SEC coach, he's lost only 23 SEC games. That's right, in the toughest division of the toughest conference in the country, Saban has managed to win 77 percent of the time. Hell, at Alabama he's only lost 11 SEC games in eight seasons. Has your head exploded yet?!

I may be a little biased, but I think Butch Jones is really low on that list. The last two years have been relatively good for him after coming in and rebuilding the program from the disaster that Dooley left behind. Tons of young players that he's developing, and with the new OC at Tennessee, I have some high hopes for the Vols. Smile

Ranking the Big 12 College Towns (Expert Poll)


I can't argue much with those having never been to most of the towns.

I won't say College Station is anything special, but it's literally conjoined to Bryan and the two cities have a combined population of 255,000+ which makes the following description pretty inaccurate
Quote:
College Station, Texas If you think Auburn is small and in the middle of nowhere, then you won't like College Station much either.
It's also 90 miles from Houston and not far (by Texas standards) from Austin.

I've been to Knoxville and can't say it was anything special. Nothing bad about it, but not a place I'm itching to get back to.

I've been to all the Texas and Oklahoma Big 12 cities and I agree with the list for the most part except Lubbock over Waco. In fact, I can't think of one reason to take Lubbock over Waco.

ohsix, what part(s) of Knoxville did you go to? After being there for a while, I found that it's a really great place to live, but not all too exciting to just visit for a few days. Super fun wake scene too, the river's great when it's not too cold Smile

Tech girls may have a sluttier reputation, but Baylor girls are easier in "my friend's" experience. There's some crazy in Lubbock. Baylor girls are like young cougars. They know what they want and how to get it and they don't have a problem leaving it when they're done. My friend's sample size is only 2-3 from each school, so YMMV.

I stayed at the Hilton which I would say is downtown. Fairly close to the University. Walked the Market Square. Was only there 1 night and the better part of a day. Nothing wrong with it. It just didn't have a cool vibe or gravity that pulls you back like Austin or San Diego.

I was hoping Braxton would come back as QB and have a Heisman caliber year. Now he'll just have to do that at WR/PR if he can get enough touches.

Wow, I didn't even notice that....

I mentioned Utahs best corner being arrested on serious charges, which were dismissed almost immediately due to video evidence that showed he was not the individual. But in the middle he was dismissed from the team(not suspended) & has NOT been reinstated.

Whit said there is a "possibility" that he may be, but not at this point. Seems something else came to light here, wish I knew what.

Probably the best "future"(NFL) move for Braxton.

Good on him for being willing, pretty amazing that a QB that has won 25 or so games(I didn't look).

The CFB season countdown has begun. Tick, Tick, Tick.....

BYU loses JWillimas for the year. 50/50 he ever plays there again.

Camp is rolling for Utes, fun to be going again.

Auburn is surprisingly towards the bottom of the top 25.

Way to go Wazzu.

I will say the bar scene in Pullman/Moscow is some of the most intense dedication to drunken fighting I have ever witnessed.
