re: Rank the SEC Coaches on job performance this year

Malzahn is COTY

Saban and Pinkel round out the top three

I'd probably go with...

1. Gus Malzahn, Auburn
2. Nick Saban, Alabama
3. Gary Pinkel, Missouri
4. Hugh Freeze, Ole Miss
5. Kevin Sumlin, Texas A&M
6. Butch Jones, Tennessee
7. James Franklin, Vanderbilt
8. Mark Richt, Georgia
9. Les Miles, LSU
10. Steve Spurrier, South Carolina
11. Mark Stoops, Kentucky
12. Will Muschamp, Florida
13. Bret Bielema, Arkansas
14. Dan Mullen, Mississippi State

Caveats:
* Richt is hard to place because of injuries; they were damn good before the injuries and understandably bad after
* Stoops and Bielema are hard to place because they jumped into dumpster fires and put them out; hard to tell if they're pouring water or oil on
