I agree about the coaches. I've been on that train for as while now. The SEC has some very mediocre coaches.

Who is the 2nd best coach in the SEC? Dan Mullen?

I'd say Bert

Compare that to 2010 when you had Miles, Meyer, Richt,Petrino,Spurrier. I think Franklin was even at Vandy then too

I think he's in the conversation. Maybe Freeze or McElwain. Jury is still out on Kirby but I do think he will win at UGA.

That's my point. There are no fewer than 5 coaches, maybe even 7, from the ACC that I'd rather have than those guys.

At least in large part a product of Saban, I think. When one coach in a conference becomes dominant, the others either get run off (Miles, Richt, soon to be Sumlin, Bielema, Jones), give up (Spurrier) or leave for an easier place (Meyer). Any coach who stays becomes less successful because they lose recruits to the dominant program. Saban has been poaching top players from Louisiana the last few years, and I think that has contributed to LSU's decline. He's pretty much killed Auburn in-state, and can take just about anyone he wants from any other surrounding states. That naturally hurts the schools from those states.

Alabama is killing the rest of the SEC with Saban now just like they did with Bryant in the '70s.
