Gus is kind of an enigma for 100 reasons but 25th is too low. His worst years he goes 8-5 and his best years he wins the West. He's a #15-20 coach. It's just strange how people act like 2013 either (a) didn't happen or (b) was because Gus inherited a bunch of good stuff and it wasn't really because of him (when in fact he inherited the worst Auburn team of the modern era).
Like, how on earth can you rank Malzahn behind Dino Babers or even James Franklin at this moment? Guy is averaging a 9-4 (5-3) season in the SEC West with 2 SEC West Titles, 1 SEC Title and a National Runner Up. The hell have those other guys done that matches that?
I totally get how he would frustrate the hell out of fans of his team but he does get the shaft when it comes to evaluating his overall body of work. Especially compared to others.

How many current coaches have coached in a NC Game ? How many coaches have won a Conference Championship in a P5 Conference ? How many current Coaches have won multiple divisional championships in any P5 Conference ?
How many have two of the above ? How many have done all three ?
That is where you start your list after Saban and Dabo.
